Luke 18:10-17
10“TwoG1417 menG444 1wentG305 upG305 into the 2templeG2413 to prayG4336, oneG1520 a PhariseeG5330 and the otherG2087 a taxG5057 collectorG5057. 11The PhariseeG5330 3stoodG2476 and began prayingG4336 thisG3778 inG4314 regardG4314 toG4314 himselfG1438: ‘GodG2316, I thankG2168 You that I amG1510 not likeG5618 otherG3062 peopleG444: swindlersG727, crookedG94, adulterersG3432, orG2228 evenG2532 likeG5613 thisG3778 taxG5057 collectorG5057. 12I 4fastG3522 twiceG1364 a weekG4521; I 5payG586 tithesG586 of allG3956 that I getG2932.’ 13But the taxG5057 collectorG5057, 6standingG2476 someG3113 distanceG3113 awayG3113, 7was evenG3761 unwillingG3756G2309 to raiseG1869 his eyesG3788 towardG1519 heavenG3772, but 8was beatingG5180 his chestG4738, sayingG3004, ‘GodG2316, beG2433 9mercifulG2433 to me, the sinnerG268!’ 14I tellG3004 you, thisG3778 manG3778 wentG2597 to his houseG3624 justifiedG1344 ratherG3844 thanG3844 the otherG1565 oneG1565; 10for everyoneG3956 who exaltsG5312 himselfG1438 will be humbledG5013, but the one who humblesG5013 himselfG1438 will be exaltedG5312.”
1511NowG1161 they were bringingG4374 evenG2532 their babiesG1025 to Him soG2443 thatG2443 He would touchG681 them; but when the disciplesG3101 sawG3708 it, they began rebukingG2008 them. 16But JesusG2424 calledG4341 for 12the little ones, sayingG3004, “AllowG863 the childrenG3813 to comeG2064 to Me, and do not 13forbidG2967 them, for the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 belongsG1510 to suchG5108 asG5108 theseG5108. 17TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, 14whoeverG3739G302 does not receiveG1209 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 likeG5613 a childG3813 will not enterG1525 it atG3361 allG3361.”
