And he said to them, Ye are they who justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts; for that which is highly exalted among men is an abomination before God.

And to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised all others, he spoke this parable:

For if Abraham was accepted as righteous through works, he hath ground of boasting. But he hath no ground of boasting before God.

For being ignorant of the righteousness which is of God, and endeavoring to establish a righteousness of their own, they have not submitted themselves to the righteousness which is of God.

Ye see that by works a man is accounted as righteous, and not by faith only.

And

Which of these three, dost thou think, was neighbor to him that fell among the robbers?
