1 Kaza im pak i priču kako se treba svagda moliti Bogu, i ne dati da dotuži, 2 govoreći: U jednom gradu beše jedan sudija koji se Boga ne bojaše i ljudi ne stiđaše. 3 A u onom gradu beše jedna udovica i dolažaše k njemu govoreći: Ne daj me mom suparniku. 4 I ne htede zadugo. A najposle reče u sebi: Ako se i ne bojim Boga i ljudi ne sramim, 5 no budući da mi dosađuje ova udovica, odbraniću je, da mi jednako ne dolazi i ne dosađuje. 6 Tada reče Gospod: Čujte šta govori nepravedni sudija. 7 A kamoli Bog neće odbraniti izbranih svojih koji Ga mole dan i noć? 8 Kažem vam da će ih odbraniti brzo. Ali Sin čovečiji kad dođe hoće li naći veru na zemlji? 9 A i drugima koji mišljahu za sebe da su pravednici i druge uništavahu kaza priču ovu: 10 Dva čoveka uđoše u crkvu da se mole Bogu, jedan farisej i drugi carinik. 11 Farisej stade i moljaše se u sebi ovako: Bože! Hvalim te što ja nisam kao ostali ljudi: hajduci, nepravednici, preljubočinci ili kao ovaj carinik. 12 Postim dvaput u nedelji; dajem desetak od svega što imam. 13 A carinik izdaleka stajaše, i ne htede ni očiju podignuti na nebo, nego bijaše prsi svoje govoreći: Bože! Milostiv budi meni grešnome. 14 Kažem vam da ovaj otide opravdan kući svojoj, a ne onaj. Jer svaki koji se sam podiže poniziće se; a koji se sam ponižuje podignuće se. 15 Donošahu k Njemu i decu da ih se dotakne; a kad videše učenici, zapretiše im. 16 A Isus dozvavši ih reče: Pustite decu neka dolaze k meni, i ne branite im; jer je takvih carstvo Božije. 17 I kažem vam zaista: koji ne primi carstvo Božije kao dete, neće ući u njega. 18 I zapita Ga jedan knez govoreći: Učitelju blagi! Šta da učinim da nasledim život večni? 19 A Isus reče mu: Što me zoveš blagim? Niko nije blag osim jednog Boga. 20 Zapovesti znaš: ne čini preljube; ne ubij; ne ukradi; ne svedoči lažno; poštuj oca i mater svoju. 21 A on reče: Sve sam ovo sačuvao od mladosti svoje. 22 A kad to ču Isus reče mu: Još ti jedno nedostaje: prodaj sve što imaš i razdaj siromasima; i imaćeš blago na nebu; i hajde za mnom. 23 A kad on ču to postade žalostan, jer beše vrlo bogat. 24 A kad ga vide Isus gde postade žalostan, reče: Kako je teško ući u carstvo Božije onima koji imaju bogatstvo! 25 Lakše je kamili proći kroz iglene uši negoli bogatom ući u carstvo Božije. 26 A oni koji slušahu rekoše: Ko se dakle može spasti? 27 A On reče: Šta je u ljudi nemoguće u Boga je moguće. 28 A Petar reče: Eto mi smo ostavili sve i za Tobom idemo. 29 A On im reče: Zaista vam kažem: nema nijednoga koji bi ostavio kuću, ili roditelje, ili braću, ili sestre, ili ženu, ili decu carstva radi Božijeg, 30 koji neće primiti više u ovo vreme, i na onom svetu život večni. 31 Uze pak dvanaestoricu i reče im: Evo idemo gore u Jerusalim, i sve će se svršiti što su proroci pisali za Sina čovečijeg. 32 Jer će Ga predati neznabošcima, i narugaće Mu se, i ružiće Ga, i popljuvaće Ga, 33 i biće Ga, i ubiće Ga; i treći dan ustaće. 34 I oni ništa od toga ne razumeše, i beseda ova beše od njih sakrivena, i ne razumeše šta im se kaza. 35 A kad se približi k Jerihonu, jedan slepac seđaše kraj puta proseći. 36 A kad ču narod gde prolazi zapita: Šta je to? 37 I kazaše mu da Isus Nazarećanin prolazi. 38 I povika govoreći: Isuse, sine Davidov! Pomiluj me. 39 I prećahu mu oni što iđahu napred da ućuti; a on još više vikaše: Sine Davidov! Pomiluj me. 40 I Isus stade i zapovedi da Mu ga dovedu; a kad Mu se približi, zapita ga 41 govoreći: Šta hoćeš da ti učinim? A on reče: Gospode! Da progledam. 42 A Isus reče: Progledaj; vera tvoja pomože ti. 43 I odmah progleda, i pođe za Njim hvaleći Boga. I svi ljudi koji videše hvaljahu Boga.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
The lesson of the Holy Gospel builds us up unto the duty of praying and believing, and of not putting our trust in ourselves, but in the Lord. What greater encouragement to prayer than the parable which is proposed to us of the unjust judge?

And to the person who said to Him, "Good Master," He confessed that God who is truly good, saying, "Why callest thou Me good: there is One who is good, the Father in the heavens;" and they assert that in this passage the Æons receive the name of heavens.
It were well for him to imitate the Publican, and not swell as the Pharisee, "who went up into the temple," and boasted of his deserts, and covered up his wounds.

For instance, to them that strip themselves of all that they have for His sake He promised to give an hundred fold in the present world, and life eternal in that which is to come; by the things already given making the future also credible.

The eighth passage is, That they may know Thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ Whom Thou hast sent; and There is none good save one, that is, God. The solution of this appears to me very easy.
