眾見而非議曰：『彼竟投宿罪人家耶！』

All the people saw this and began to mutter,“ He has gone to be the guest of a sinner.”

All the people saw this. They began to whisper among themselves. They said,“ Jesus has gone to be the guest of a sinner.”

And when they saw it, they all grumbled,“ He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.”

All who saw it began to complain,“ He’s gone to stay with a sinful man.”

When the people saw this, they all began to complain, saying,“ He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner!”

But when they saw it, they all complained, saying,“ He has gone to be a guest with a man who is a sinner.”

And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, He is gone in to lodge with a man that is a sinner.

All who saw it began to complain,“ He’s gone to lodge with a sinful man!”

And when they saw[ it], they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.

And when the people saw it, they all complained,“ He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.”

When they saw it, they all murmured, saying,“ He has gone in to lodge with a man who is a sinner.”

When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself,“ If this man were a prophet, he would know what kind of woman is touching him. She’s a sinner!”

This made the Pharisees and teachers of religious law complain that he was associating with such sinful people— even eating with them!

The Son of Man, on the other hand, feasts and drinks, and you say,‘ He’s a glutton and a drunkard, and a friend of tax collectors and other sinners!’

But the Pharisees and their teachers of religious law complained bitterly to Jesus’ disciples,“ Why do you eat and drink with such scum?”

But when the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples,“ Why does your teacher eat with such scum?”

Then Jesus told this story to some who had great confidence in their own righteousness and scorned everyone else:“ Two men went to the Temple to pray. One was a Pharisee, and the other was a despised tax collector.The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed this prayer:‘ I thank you, God, that I am not like other people— cheaters, sinners, adulterers. I’m certainly not like that tax collector!I fast twice a week, and I give you a tenth of my income.’“ But the tax collector stood at a distance and dared not even lift his eyes to heaven as he prayed. Instead, he beat his chest in sorrow, saying,‘ O God, be merciful to me, for I am a sinner.’I tell you, this sinner, not the Pharisee, returned home justified before God. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

“ But what do you think about this? A man with two sons told the older boy,‘ Son, go out and work in the vineyard today.’The son answered,‘ No, I won’t go,’ but later he changed his mind and went anyway.Then the father told the other son,‘ You go,’ and he said,‘ Yes, sir, I will.’ But he didn’t go.“ Which of the two obeyed his father?” They replied,“ The first.” Then Jesus explained his meaning:“ I tell you the truth, corrupt tax collectors and prostitutes will get into the Kingdom of God before you do.
