* And shall not God avenge (5692 ) his own elect , which cry (5723 ) day and night unto him , though he bear long (5723 ) with them ? * I tell (5719 ) you that he will (5692 ) avenge them speedily . Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh (5631 ), shall he find (5692 ) faith on the earth ? * And he spake (5627 ) this parable unto certain which trusted (5756 ) in themselves that they were (5748 ) righteous , and despised (5723 ) others : * Two men went up (5627 ) into the temple to pray (5664 ); the one a Pharisee , and the other a publican . * The Pharisee stood (5685 ) and prayed (5711 ) thus with himself , God , I thank (5719 ) thee , that I am (5748 ) not as other men are , extortioners , unjust , adulterers , or even as this publican . * I fast (5719 ) twice in the week , I give tithes (5719 ) of all that I possess (5736 ). * And the publican , standing (5761 ) afar off , would (5707 ) not lift up (5658 ) so much as his eyes unto heaven , but smote (5707 ) upon his breast , saying (5723 ), God be merciful (5682 ) to me a sinner . * I tell (5719 ) you , this man went down (5627 ) to his house justified (5772 ) rather than the other : for every one that exalteth (5723 ) himself shall be abased (5701 ); and he that humbleth (5723 ) himself shall be exalted (5701 ).
