Matthew 9:9-13 - Matthew Called To Follow Jesus
9 As Jesus passed along from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax-office; he said to him, "Follow me"; and he rose and followed him.
10 Jesus was at table indoors, and many taxgatherers and sinners had come to be guests with him and his disciples. 11 So when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with taxgatherers and sinners?"
12 When Jesus heard it he said, "Those who are strong have no need of a doctor, but those who are ill. 13 Go and learn the meaning of this word, I care for mercy not for sacrifice. For I have not come to call just men but sinners."
