Luke 19:10

8 But Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord, half of my possessions I give to the poor, and if I have cheated anyone, I will repay it fourfold.”

9 Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because this man too is a son of Abraham.

For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”

11 While the people were listening to this, Jesus proceeded to tell them a parable, because He was near Jerusalem and they thought the kingdom of God would appear imminently.

12 So He said, “A man of noble birth went to a distant country to lay claim to his kingship and then return.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
