Read the full text in our reader

καὶ ἀκούσας ὁ Ἰησοῦς λέγει αὐτοῖς Οὐ χρείαν ἔχουσιν οἱ ἰσχύοντες ἰατροῦ ἀλλ’ οἱ κακῶς ἔχοντες · οὐκ ἦλθον καλέσαι δικαίους ἀλλὰ ἁμαρτωλούς.

And when Jesus heard this, he said to them, It is not the healthy who need a physician, but the sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners.
