Bible discovery

Luke 18:9-14 365D 214.1

9 Also He spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: 365D 214.2

10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 365D 214.3

11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, ‘God, I thank You that I am not like other men—extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. 365D 214.4

12 I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.’ 365D 214.5

13 And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’ 365D 214.6

14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be [d] humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.” 365D 214.7
