Luke 18:12 BBE

¹⁰  Two men went up to the Temple for prayer; one a Pharisee, and the other a tax-farmer.

¹¹  The Pharisee, taking up his position, said to himself these words: God, I give you praise because I am not like other men, who take more than their right, who are evil-doers, who are untrue to their wives, or even like this tax-farmer.

¹²  Twice in the week I go without food; I give a tenth of all I have.

¹³  The tax-farmer, on the other hand, keeping far away, and not lifting up even his eyes to heaven, made signs of grief and said, God, have mercy on me, a sinner.

¹⁴  I say to you, This man went back to his house with God's approval, and not the other: for everyone who makes himself high will be made low and whoever makes himself low will be made high.
