Mark 2:17

και ακουσας ο ιησους λεγει αυτοις ου χρειαν εχουσιν οι ισχυοντες ιατρου αλλ οι κακως εχοντες ουκ ηλθον καλεσαι δικαιους αλλα αμαρτωλους εις μετανοιαν
kai akoysas o iēsoys legei aytois oy chreian echoysin oi ischyontes iatroy all oi kakōs echontes oyk ēlthon kalesai dikaioys alla amartōloys eis metanoian
King James Version (KJV)

When Jesus heard {it}, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
