Two men go to the temple to pray. One is a proud religious leader and the other a tax collector. The religious leader is glad that he is better than others. He fasts twice a week and gives part of his money to the temple. The tax collector feels unworthy to even look up to heaven. He cries out for mercy from God . Jesus asks which one had his sins forgiven. The He says that the proud will be brought low, and the humble will be lifted up.
