10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray,(A) one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood by himself(B) 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(C) twice a week and give a tenth(D) 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(E) and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’(F)
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.”(G)

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.
