And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves (δικαιοῦντες ἑαυτοὺς) before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God. (Luke 16:15)
The phrase "to justify oneself" appears elsewhere in 1 Enoch 102:10:
"Therefore, you who are just see yourselves (δικαιοῦντες ἑαυτούς), of what sort their ruin has become, because no justice was found in them, even until they died and perished (from The Pseudepigrapha [English] trans. Charles E. Evans [2008])
