Luke 18:12

The Parable Of The Pharisee And The Tax Collector

¹¹ the Pharisee in a standing posture pray'd thus by himself, O God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men, a robber, a cheat, an adulterer, or like that Publican. ¹² I fast twice a week, and I pay the tythe of all I possess. ¹³ but the Publican, who stood a good way lower, not daring to lift up even his eyes to heaven, only smote his breast, and said, O God, be merciful to me, who am a sinner.

All Things

On the Sabbath

O God
