10
Two men went up into the temple to pray, the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
11
The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee that I am not as other men
are: extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
12
I fast two
meals every sabbath; I give tithes of all that I possess.
13
And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as
his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God, reconcile me, a sinner.
14
I tell you, this man went down to his house justified
rather than the other; for anyone that exalts himself shall be humbled, and he that humbles himself shall be exalted.
15
And they brought unto him also infants that he would touch them; but when
his disciples saw
it, they rebuked them.
16
But Jesus called them
unto him and said, Suffer
the little children to come unto me and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of God.
17
Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.
18
And a certain prince asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
19
And Jesus said unto him, Why dost thou call me good? No one
is good except one,
that is, God.
