Farizej a colník

O tých, ktorí si o sebe mysleli, že sú bez chyby, a na iných hľadeli zvysoka, porozprával Ježiš toto podobenstvo:

10 Dvaja muži prišli do chrámu, aby sa pomodlili. Jeden z nich bol farizej a druhý colník.

11 Farizej si zastal vpredu a takto sa modlil:Ďakujem ti, Bože, že nie som taký chamtivec, nepoctivec alebo cudzoložník ako ostatní ľudia, a najmä, že nie som ako tento colník.

12 Dva razy do týždňa sa postievam a dávam desatinu zo všetkých svojich príjmov.

13 No colník stál celkom vzadu so sklonenou hlavou, ani len oči sa neodvážil zdvihnúť k nebu. Na znamenie ľútosti sa bil do pŕs a takto sa modlil:Bože, zľutuj sa nado mnou, som veľký hriešnik.

14 Dôrazne vám hovorím, že colník sa vrátil domov ospravedlnený, a nie farizej. Lebo každý, kto sa povyšuje, bude ponížený, a kto sa ponižuje, bude povýšený."

The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector

To some who were confident of their own righteousness(A) and looked down on everyone else,(B) Jesus told this parable: 10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray,(C) one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood by himself(D) and prayed: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector. 12 I fast(E) twice a week and give a tenth(F) of all I get.’

13 “But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast(G) and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’(H)

14 “I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”(I)

And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:

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 twice in the week, 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 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 that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
