10 Later, Matthew invited Jesus and his disciples to his home as dinner guests, along with many tax collectors and other disreputable sinners. 11 But when the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with such scum?9:11 Greek with tax collectors and sinners?"
12 When Jesus heard this, he said, "Healthy people don’t need a doctor—sick people do."13 Then he added, "Now go and learn the meaning of this Scripture: ‘I want you to show mercy, not offer sacrifices.’9:13 Hos 6:6 (Greek version).For I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners."
