Luke:5:27-35

*
And after these things he went forth ,
and saw a publican ,
named Levi ,
sitting at the receipt of custom :
and he said unto him ,
Follow me .
*
And he left all ,
rose up ,
and followed him .
*
And Levi made him a great feast in his own house :
and there was a great company of publicans and of others that sat down with them .
*
But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples ,
saying ,
Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners ?
*
And Jesus answering said unto them ,
They that are whole need not a physician ;
but they that are sick .
*
I came not to call the righteous ,
but sinners to repentance .
*
And they said unto him ,
Why do the disciples of John fast often ,
and make prayers ,
and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees ;
but thine eat and drink ?
*
And he said unto them ,
Can ye make the children of the bridechamber fast ,
while the bridegroom is with them ?
*
But the days will come ,
when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them ,
and then shall they fast in those days .
