¹ And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; Cross refs

² Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: Cross refs

³ And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. Cross refs

⁴ And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; Cross refs

⁵ Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me. Cross refs

⁶ And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith. Cross refs

⁷ And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? Cross refs

⁸ I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? Cross refs

⁹ And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: Cross refs

¹⁰ Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. Cross refs

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. Cross refs

¹² I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess. Cross refs

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. Cross refs

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. Cross refs

¹⁵ And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them. Cross refs

¹⁶ But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. Cross refs

¹⁷ Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein. Cross refs

¹⁸ And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? Cross refs

¹⁹ And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God. Cross refs

²⁰ Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother. Cross refs

²¹ And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up. Cross refs

²² Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. Cross refs

²³ And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich. Cross refs

²⁴ And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! Cross refs

²⁵ For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. Cross refs

²⁶ And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved? Cross refs

²⁷ And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God. Cross refs

²⁸ Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee. Cross refs

²⁹ And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake, Cross refs

³⁰ Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting. Cross refs

³¹ Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished. Cross refs

³² For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on: Cross refs

³³ And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again. Cross refs

³⁴ And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken. Cross refs

³⁵ And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging: Cross refs

³⁶ And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant. Cross refs

³⁷ And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by. Cross refs

³⁸ And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me. Cross refs

³⁹ And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou son of David, have mercy on me. Cross refs

⁴⁰ And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him, Cross refs

⁴¹ Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight. Cross refs

⁴² And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee. Cross refs

⁴³ And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God. Cross refs
