The God of our fathers, hath raised up Jesus, - whom, ye, got into your hands, suspending him upon a tree: - Him, as Princely-leader and Saviour, hath God exalted unto his right hand, - to give repentance unto Israel, and remission of sins.
And, the Pharisees, observing it, began to say unto his disciples, - Wherefore, with tax-collectors and sinners, doth your Teacher eat? And, he, hearing it, said, - No need have the strong, of a physician, but they who are sick. But go ye, and learn what this meaneth, - Mercy, I desire, and not, sacrifice; For I came, not to call the righteous, but sinners.
And the Scribes and Pharisees, seeing that he was eating with the sinners and the tax-collectors, began saying unto his disciples - With the tax-collectors and sinners, is he eating? And, hearing it, Jesus saith unto them - No need, have the strong of a physician, but they who are sick, I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.
And the Pharisees and their Scribes began murmuring unto his disciples, saying - Wherefore, with the tax-collectors and sinners, are ye eating and drinking? And, answering, Jesus said unto them - No need, have, the whole, of a physician, but, they who are sick. I have not come to call, righteous, men, but, sinners, unto repentance.
