Matthew 9:11-13
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
11 The Pharisees saw this and said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher[a] eat with tax collectors and sinners?” 12 He heard this and said, “Those who are well do not need a physician, but the sick do.[b] 13 Go and learn the meaning of the words,(A) ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’[c] I did not come to call the righteous but sinners.”
