| 4 | He wouldn`t for a while, but afterward he said to himself, `Though I don`t fear God, nor respect man, | Lk 12:17 Lk 16:3 Heb 4:12 Heb 4:13 |
| 5 | yet because this widow bothers me, I will defend her, or else she will wear me out by her continual coming.`" | Lk 11:8 Jg 16:16 2Sa 13:24-27 |
| 6 | The Lord said, "Listen to what the unrighteous judge says. |
| 7 | Won`t God avenge his elect, who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them? | Lk 11:13 Mt 7:11 |
| 8 | I tell you that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?" | Ps 46:5 Ps 143:7-9 2Pe 2:3 2Pe 3:8 2Pe 3:9 |
| 9 | He spoke also this parable to certain people who were convinced of their own righteousness, and who despised all others. | Lk 10:29 Lk 15:29 Lk 16:15 Pr 30:12 Isa 65:5 Isa 66:5 Jn 9:28 Jn 9:34 Ro 7:9 Ro 9:31 Ro 9:32 Ro 10:3 Php 3:4-6 |

| 11 | The Pharisee stood and prayed to himself like this: `God, I thank you, that I am not like the rest of men, extortioners, unrighteous, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. | Ps 134:1 Ps 135:2 Mt 6:5 Mk 11:25 |
| 12 | I fast twice in the week. I give tithes of all that I get.` | Lk 17:10 Nm 23:4 1Sa 15:13 2Ki 10:16 Isa 1:15 Isa 58:2 Isa 58:3 Zc 7:5 Zc 7:6 Mt 6:1 Mt 6:5 Mt 6:16 Mt 9:14 Mt 15:7-9 Ro 3:27 Ro 10:1-3 1Co 1:29 Ga 1:14 Eph 2:9 1Ti 4:8 |
| 13 | But the tax collector, standing far away, wouldn`t even lift up as his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, `God, be merciful to me, a sinner!` | Lk 5:8 Lk 7:6 Lk 7:7 Lk 17:12 Ezr 9:6 Jb 42:6 Ps 40:12 Isa 6:5 Ezk 16:63 Dn 9:7-9 Ac 2:37 |
| 14 | I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted." | Lk 5:24 Lk 5:25 Lk 7:47-50 1Sa 1:18 Ec 9:7 |
| 15 | They were also bringing their babies to him, that he might touch them. But when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them. | 1Sa 1:24 Mt 19:13-15 Mk 10:13-16 |
| 16 | Jesus called them near, saying, "Allow the little children to come to me, and don`t hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to ones like these. | Gn 47:10-14 Gn 21:4 Dt 29:11 Dt 31:12 2Ch 20:13 Jer 32:39 Ac 2:39 1Co 7:14 |
| 17 | Most assuredly, I tell you, whoever doesn`t receive the kingdom of God like a little child, he will in no way enter into it." | Ps 131:1 Ps 131:2 Mk 10:15 1Pe 1:14 |

| 23 | But when he heard these things, he became very sad, for he was very rich. | Lk 8:14 Lk 12:15 Lk 19:8 Lk 21:34 Jg 18:23 Jg 18:24 Jb 31:24 Jb 31:25 Ezk 33:31 Mt 19:22 Mk 10:22 Eph 5:5 Php 3:8 Col 3:5 1Jn 2:15 |
| 24 | Jesus, seeing that he became very sad, said, "How hard it is for those who have riches to enter into the kingdom of God! | Mk 6:26 2Co 7:9 2Co 7:10 |
| 25 | For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle`s eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." | Mt 23:24 |

| 28 | Peter said, "Look, we have left everything, and followed you." | Lk 5:11 Mt 4:19-22 Mt 9:9 Mt 19:27 Mk 10:28 Php 3:7 |
| 29 | He said to them, "Most assuredly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for the kingdom of God`s sake, | Lk 14:26-28 Dt 33:9 Mt 10:37-39 Mt 19:28-30 Mk 10:29-31 |
| 30 | who will not receive many times more in this time, and in the world to come, eternal life." | Lk 12:31 Lk 12:32 Jb 42:10 Ps 37:16 Ps 63:4 Ps 63:5 Ps 84:10-12 Ps 119:72 Ps 119:103 Ps 119:111 Ps 119:127 Ps 119:162 Ro 6:21-23 1Ti 4:8 1Ti 6:6 Heb 13:5 Heb 13:6 Rev 2:10 Rev 2:17 Rev 3:21 |

| 32 | For he will be delivered up to the Gentiles, will be mocked, treated shamefully, and spit on. | Lk 23:1 Lk 23:11 Mt 27:2 Mk 15:1 Jn 18:28 Jn 18:30 Jn 18:35 Ac 3:13 |
| 33 | They will scourge and kill him. On the third day, he will rise again." | Lk 24:7 Lk 24:21 Mt 27:63 1Co 15:3 1Co 15:4 |
| 34 | They understood none of these things. This saying was hidden from them, and they didn`t understand the things that were said. | Lk 2:50 Lk 9:45 Lk 24:25 Lk 24:45 Mk 9:32 Jn 10:6 Jn 12:16 Jn 16:1-19 |
| 35 | It happened, as he came near Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the road, begging. | Mt 20:29 Mt 20:30 Mk 10:46 Mk 10:47 |
| 36 | Hearing a multitude going by, he asked what this meant. | Lk 15:26 Mt 21:10 Mt 21:11 |
| 37 | They told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. | Mk 2:1-3 Jn 12:35 Jn 12:36 2Co 6:2 |

| 40 | Jesus, standing, commanded him to be brought to him. When he had come near, he asked him, | Mt 20:31-34 Mk 10:48-52 |
| 41 | "What do you want me to do?" He said, "Lord, that I may see again." | 1Ki 3:5-15 Mt 20:21 Mt 20:22 Ro 8:25 Php 4:6 |
