Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:1 - And he spake also a simile to them, that it behoveth us always to pray, and not to faint,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:2 - saying, 'A certain judge was in a certain city -- God he is not fearing, and man he is not regarding --
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:3 - and a widow was in that city, and she was coming unto him, saying, Do me justice on my opponent,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:4 - and he would not for a time, but after these things he said in himself, Even if God I do not fear, and man do not regard,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:5 - yet because this widow doth give me trouble, I will do her justice, lest, perpetually coming, she may plague me.'
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:6 - And the Lord said, 'Hear ye what the unrighteous judge saith:
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:7 - and shall not God execute the justice to His choice ones, who are crying unto Him day and night -- bearing long in regard to them?
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:8 - I say to you, that He will execute the justice to them quickly; but the Son of Man having come, shall he find the faith upon the earth?'

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:11 - the Pharisee having stood by himself, thus prayed: God, I thank Thee that I am not as the rest of men, rapacious, unrighteous, adulterers, or even as this tax-gatherer;
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:12 - I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all things -- as many as I possess.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:13 - 'And the tax-gatherer, having stood afar off, would not even the eyes lift up to the heaven, but was smiting on his breast, saying, God be propitious to me -- the sinner!
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:14 - I say to you, this one went down declared righteous, to his house, rather than that one: for every one who is exalting himself shall be humbled, and he who is humbling himself shall be exalted.'
(Mat 19:13–15; Mar 10:13–16 )
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:15 - And they were bringing near also the babes, that he may touch them, and the disciples having seen did rebuke them,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:16 - and Jesus having called them near, said, 'Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the reign of God;
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 18:17 - verily I say to you, Whoever may not receive the reign of God as a little child, may not enter into it.'
