Matthew 9:11-13 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

11. Some Pharisees asked Jesus' disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and other sinners?”

12. Jesus heard them and answered, “Healthy people don't need a doctor, but sick people do.

13. Go and learn what the Scriptures mean when they say, ‘Instead of offering sacrifices to me, I want you to be merciful to others.’ I didn't come to invite good people to be my followers. I came to invite sinners.”
