Luke 18:13 CPDV

¹¹  Standing, the Pharisee prayed within himself in this way: 'O God, I give thanks to you that I am not like the rest of men: robbers, unjust, adulterers, even as this tax collector chooses to be.

¹²  I fast twice between Sabbaths. I give tithes from all that I possess.'

¹³  And the tax collector, standing at a distance, was not willing to even lift up his eyes to heaven. But he struck his chest, saying: 'O God, be merciful to me, a sinner.'

¹⁴  I say to you, this one descended to his house justified, but not the other. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled; and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.'

¹⁵  And they were bringing little children to him, so that he might touch them. And when the disciples saw this, they rebuked them.
