Luke 5:27-32 ▼

27 After that, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax collector's desk. He told him, |Follow me!|

28 So Levi left everything behind, got up, and followed him.

29 Later, Levi gave a large banquet at his home for Jesus. A large crowd of tax collectors and others were eating with them.

30 The Pharisees and their scribes started complaining to Jesus' disciples, |Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?|

31 But Jesus answered them, |Healthy people don't need a physician, but sick people do.

32 I have not come to call righteous people, but sinners, to repentance.|
