Luke 18:10-17

10TwoG1417 menG444 wentG305 up into the templeG2411 to prayG4336; the oneG1520 a PhariseeG5330, and the otherG2087 a publican. 11The PhariseeG5330 stoodG2476 and prayedG4336 thus with himself, GodG2316, I thankG2168 thee, that I amG1510 not as the restG3062 of menG444, extortioners, unjustG94, adulterersG3432, or evenG2532 as this publican. 12I fastG3522 twiceG1364 in the weekG4521; I give tithes of all that I get. 13But the publican, standingG2476 afar off, would not liftG1869 up so much as his eyesG3788 unto heavenG3772, but smote his breastG4738, sayingG3004, GodG2316, be thou merciful to me a sinnerG268. 14I sayG3004 unto you, This manG3778 wentG2597 downG2597 to his houseG3624 justifiedG1344 rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be humbledG5013; but he that humbleth himself shall be exaltedG5312.

15And they were bringingG4374 unto him alsoG2532 their babes, that he should touchG681 them: but when the disciplesG3101 sawG3708 it, they rebukedG2008 them. 16But JesusG2424 called them unto him, sayingG3004, Suffer the little childrenG3813 to comeG2064 unto me, and forbidG2967 them not: for to suchG5108 belongeth the kingdomG932 of GodG2316. 17Verily I sayG3004 unto you, Whosoever shall not receiveG1209 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 as a little childG3813, he shall in no wise enterG1525 therein.
