Matthew 21:31

The Parable Of The Two Sons

Jesus said to them: Verily I say to you, The publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you. ³² For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you believed him not. But the publicans and the harlots believed him. And you, when you had seen it, after ward felt no regret, that you might believe him.
