International Standard Version

The Parable about the Pharisee and the Tax Collector

⁹ Jesus^[a] also told this parable to some people who trusted in themselves, thinking they were righteous, but who looked down on everyone else: ¹⁰ “Two men went up to the Temple to pray. One was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector. ¹¹ The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed, ‘O God, I thank you that I’m not like other people—thieves, dishonest people, adulterers, or even this tax collector.
