9 And he spake this parable vnto certaine which trusted in themselues that they were righteous, & despised other:
10 Two men went vp into the Temple to pray, the one a Pharisee, and the other a Publicane.
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himselfe, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, vniust, adulterers, or euen as this Publicane.
12 I fast twise in the weeke, I giue tithes of all that I possesse.
13 And the Publicane standing afarre off, would not lift vp so much as his eyes vnto heauen: but smote vpon his breast, saying, God me mercifull to mee a sinner.
14 I tell you, this man went downe to his house iustified rather then the other: For euery one that exalteth himselfe, shall be abased: and hee that humbleth himselfe, shall be exalted.
Lk 18:9-14
