1And he spoke also a parable to them to the purport that they should always pray and not faint, 2saying, There was a judge in a city, not fearing God and not respecting man: 3and there was a widow in that city, and she came to him, saying, Avenge me of mine adverse party. 4And he would not for a time; but afterwards he said within himself, If even I fear not God and respect not man, 5at any rate because this widow annoys me I will avenge her, that she may not by perpetually coming completely harass me. 6And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge says. 7And shall not God at all avenge his elect, who cry to him day and night, and he bears long as to them? 8I say unto you that he will avenge them speedily. But when the Son of man comes, shall he indeed find faith on the earth?
9And he spoke also to some, who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and made nothing of all the rest of men, this parable: 10Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a tax-gatherer. 11The Pharisee, standing, prayed thus to himself: God, I thank thee that I am not as the rest of men, rapacious, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax-gatherer. 12I fast twice in the week, I tithe everything I gain. 13And the tax-gatherer, standing afar off, would not lift up even his eyes to heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, O God, have compassion on me, the sinner. 14I say unto you, This man went down to his house justified rather than that other. For every one who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he that humbles himself shall be exalted.
15And they brought to him also infants that he might touch them, but the disciples when they saw it rebuked them. 16But Jesus calling them to him said, Suffer little children to come to me, and do not forbid them, for of such is the kingdom of God. 17Verily I say to you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.
18And a certain ruler asked him saying, Good teacher, having done what, shall I inherit eternal life?
