"I fast twice a week; I give a tenth of everything I get.’"
— Luke 18:12, NET Bible
“I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.”
“I fast twice in the week; I give tithes of all that I get. ”
“I fast twice a week. I give tithes of all that I get.'”

The Parable of the Pharisee and Tax Collector Jesus also told this parable to some who were confident that they were righteous and looked down on everyone else.
“Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
The Pharisee stood and prayed about himself like this:‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people: extortionists, unrighteous people, adulterers– or even like this tax collector.
I fast twice a week; I give a tenth of everything I get.’
The tax collector, however, stood far off and would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said,‘God, be merciful to me, sinner that I am!’
I tell you that this man went down to his home justified rather than the Pharisee. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
Jesus and Little Children Now people were even bringing their babies to him for him to touch. But when the disciples saw it, they began to scold those who brought them.
