10 “Two men ascended to the temple, in order to pray. One was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector. 11 Standing, the Pharisee prayed within himself in this way: ‘O God, I give thanks to you that I am not like the rest of men: robbers, unjust, adulterers, even as this tax collector chooses to be. 12 I fast twice between Sabbaths. I give tithes from all that I possess.’ 13 And the tax collector, standing at a distance, was not willing to even lift up his eyes to heaven. But he struck his chest, saying: ‘O God, be merciful to me, a sinner.’ Luke 18:10-13, Catholic Public Domain Version. Public domain.
