1599 Geneva Bible
6 Then he came down hastily, and received him joyfully.
7 [a]And when all they saw it, they murmured, saying, that he was gone in to lodge with a sinful man.
8 [b]And Zacchaeus stood forth, and said unto the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor: and if I have taken from any man by [c]forged cavillation, I restore him fourfold.
