Matthew 9:10-13

English Standard Version

¹⁰ And as Jesus^[a] reclined at table in the house, behold, many ^(A)tax collectors and sinners came and were reclining with Jesus and his disciples. ¹¹ And when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, ^(B)“Why does your teacher eat with ^(C)tax collectors and sinners?” ¹² But when he heard it, he said, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. ¹³ Go and learn ^(D)what this means: ^(E)‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ For ^(F)I came not to call the righteous, ^(G)but sinners.”
