[1] And he told them a parable, to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart.

[2] He said, "In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor regarded man;

[4] For a while he refused; but afterward he said to himself, `Though I neither fear God nor regard man,

Line 1,026: Line 1,036:

[9] He also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and despised others:

[10] "Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.

[12] I fast twice a week, I give tithes of all that I get.'

[13] But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, `God, be merciful to me a sinner!'

[14] I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for every one who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted."

[29] When he drew near to Beth'phage and Bethany, at the mount that is called Olivet, he sent two of the disciples,

Line 1,112: Line 1,123:

[42] saying, "Would that even today you knew the things that make for peace! But now they are hid from your eyes.
