Luke

Chapter 14

1 And it came1096 to pass, as he went2064 into1519 the house3624 of one5100 of the chief758 Pharisees5330 to eat5315 bread740 on the sabbath4521 day, that they watched3906 him.

2 And, behold,2400 there was a certain5100 man444 before1715 him which had the dropsy.5203

3 And Jesus2424 answering611 spoke2036 to the lawyers3544 and Pharisees,5330 saying,3004 Is it lawful1832 to heal2323 on the sabbath4521 day?

4 And they held2270 their peace.2270 And he took1949 him, and healed2323 him, and let him go;630

5 And answered611 them, saying,2036 Which5101 of you shall have an ass3688 or2228 an ox1016 fallen1706 into1519 a pit,5421 and will not straightway2112 pull385 him out on1722 the sabbath4521 day?2250

6 And they could2480 not answer470 him again470 to these5023 things.

7 And he put3004 forth3004 a parable3850 to those3588 which were bidden,2564 when he marked1907 how4459 they chose1586 out the chief4411 rooms;4411 saying3004 to them.

8 When3752 you are bidden2564 of any5100 man444 to a wedding,1062 sit2625 not down2625 in the highest4411 room;4411 lest3379 a more honorable1784 man444 than you be bidden2564 of him;

9 And he that bade2564 you and him come2064 and say2046 to you, Give1325 this5129 man444 place;5117 and you begin756 with shame152 to take2722 the lowest2078 room.5117

10 But when3752 you are bidden,2564 go4198 and sit377 down377 in the lowest2078 room;5117 that when3752 he that bade2564 you comes,2064 he may say2036 to you, Friend,5384 go4320 up higher:511 then5119 shall you have2071 worship1391 in the presence1799 of them that sit4873 at4873 meat with you.

11 For whoever3956 3588 exalts5312 himself1438 shall be abased;5013 and he that humbles5013 himself1438 shall be exalted.5312

12 Then1161 said3004 he also2532 to him that bade2564 him, When3752 you make4160 a dinner712 or2228 a supper,1173 call5455 not your friends,5384 nor3364 your brothers,80 neither3366 your kinsmen,4773 nor3364 your rich4145 neighbors;1069 lest3379 they also2532 bid479 you again,479 and a recompense468 be made1096 you.

13 But when3752 you make4160 a feast,1403 call2564 the poor,4434 the maimed,376 the lame,5560 the blind:5185

14 And you shall be blessed;3107 for they cannot3756 2192 recompense467 you: for you shall be recompensed467 at1722 the resurrection386 of the just.1342

15 And when one5100 of them that sat4873 at4873 meat with him heard191 these5023 things, he said2036 to him, Blessed3107 is he that shall eat5315 bread740 in the kingdom932 of God.2316

16 Then1161 said2036 he to him, A certain5100 man444 made4160 a great3173 supper,1173 and bade2564 many:4183

17 And sent649 his servant1401 at supper1173 time5610 to say2036 to them that were bidden,2564 Come;2064 for all3956 things are now2235 ready.2092

18 And they all3956 with one3391 consent began756 to make3868 excuse.3868 The first4413 said2036 to him, I have bought59 a piece of ground,68 and I must2192 needs318 go1831 and see1492 it: I pray2065 you have2192 me excused.3868

19 And another2087 said,2036 I have bought59 five4002 yoke2201 of oxen,1016 and I go4198 to prove1381 them: I pray2065 you have2192 me excused.3868

20 And another2087 said,2036 I have married1060 a wife,1135 and therefore122 5124 I cannot3756 1410 come.2064

21 So2532 that servant1401 came,3854 and showed518 his lord2962 these5023 things. Then5119 the master3617 of the house3617 being angry3710 said2036 to his servant,1401 Go1831 out quickly5030 into1519 the streets4113 and lanes4505 of the city,4172 and bring1521 in here5602 the poor,4434 and the maimed,376 and the halt,5560 and the blind.5185

22 And the servant1401 said,2036 Lord,2962 it is done1096 as you have commanded,2004 and yet2089 there is room.5117

23 And the lord2962 said2036 to the servant,1401 Go1831 out into1519 the highways1327 3598 and hedges,5418 and compel315 them to come1525 in, that my house3624 may be filled.1072

24 For I say3004 to you, That none3762 of those1565 men435 which3588 were bidden2564 shall taste1089 of my supper.1173

25 And there went4848 great4183 multitudes3793 with him: and he turned,4762 and said2036 to them,

26 If1487 any1536 man come2064 to me, and hate3404 not his father,3962 and mother,3384 and wife,1135 and children,5043 and brothers,80 and sisters,79 yes,2089 and his own1438 life5590 also,2532 he cannot3756 1410 be my disciple.3101

27 And whoever3748 does not bear941 his cross,4716 and come2064 after3694 me, cannot3756 1410 be my disciple.3101

28 For which5101 of you, intending2309 to build3618 a tower,4444 sits2523 not down2523 first,4412 and counts5585 the cost,1160 whether1487 he have2192 sufficient to finish535 it?

29 Lest2443 3361 haply,3379 after he has laid5087 the foundation,2310 and is not able2480 to finish1615 it, all3956 that behold2334 it begin756 to mock1702 him,

30 Saying,3004 This3778 man444 began756 to build,3618 and was not able2480 to finish.1615

31 Or2228 what5101 king,935 going4198 to make4820 war4171 against another2087 king,935 sits2523 not down2523 first,4412 and consults1011 whether1487 he be able1415 with ten1176 thousand5505 to meet528 him that comes2064 against1909 him with twenty1501 thousand?5505

32 Or1161 else,1490 while the other846 is yet2089 a great4183 way4206 off,631 he sends649 an ambassador,4242 and desires2065 conditions4314 of peace.1515

33 So3767 likewise,3779 whoever3956 he be of you that forsakes657 not all3956 that he has,5224 he cannot3756 1410 be my disciple.3101

34 Salt217 is good:2570 but if1437 the salt217 have lost3471 his flavor,3471 with which1722 5101 shall it be seasoned?741

35 It is neither3777 fit2111 for the land,1095 nor3777 yet for the dunghill;2874 but men cast906 it out. He that has2192 ears3775 to hear,191 let him hear.191

Luke

Chapter 14

1 AND it came to pass when he entered the house of one of the leaders of the Pharisees to eat bread on a sabbath day, they watched him.

2 And there was a man before him, who had dropsy.

3 And Jesus answered and said to the scribes and Pharisees, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath?

4 But they kept silent. So he took him, and healed him, and let him go.

5 And he said to them, Which one of you, if his son or his ox should fall into a pit on the sabbath day, would not immediately pull and bring him out?

6 And they could not answer him concerning this.

7 And he spoke a parable to those who were invited there, because he saw them choosing places among the front seats.

8 When you are invited of a man to a banquet house, do not go and sit in the front seat; it might be that a more honorable man than you is invited there;

9 And then he who has invited you and him will come, and say to you, Give the place to him; and you will be embarrassed when you get up and take a lower seat.

10 But when you are invited, go and sit at the lower end, so that when he who has invited you comes, he will say to you, My friend, go up and sit higher; and you will have glory before all who sit with you.

11 For whoever exalts himself will be humbled; and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.

12 He also said to him who had invited him, When you give a dinner or a supper, do not invite your friends, nor your brothers, nor your relatives, nor your rich neighbors; they might probally invite you, and you will be repaid for this.

13 But when you give a reception, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame and the blind;

14 And you will be blessed; for they have nothing to repay you; for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.

15 When one of the guests heard these things, he said to him, Blessed is he who will eat bread in the kingdom of God.

16 Jesus said to him, A man gave a great supper, and invited many.

17 And he sent his servant at supper time to tell those who were invited, Behold, everything is made ready for you, come.

18 One and all, they began to make excuse. The first said to him, I have bought a field, and I am forced to go and see it; I beg you to excuse me for being called away.

19 Another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am just going to examine them; I beg you, excuse me for being called away.

20 Another said, I have just taken a wife, and therefore I cannot come.

21 And the servant came and told his master these things. Then the master of the house was angry, and said to his servant, Go out quickly to the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here the poor, the afflicted, the maimed and the blind.

22 And the servant said, My Lord, it has been done as you commanded, and yet there is more room.

23 Then the master said to his servant, Go out to the highways and hedges, and urge them to come in so that my house may be filled.

24 For I say to you, that not one of those men who were invited shall taste of my supper.

25 And while many people were going with him, he turned and said to them,

26 He who comes to me and does not put aside his father, and his mother, and his brothers, and his sisters, and his wife, and his children, and even his own life, he cannot be a disciple to me.

27 And he who does not take up his cross and follow me, cannot be a disciple to me.

28 For which of you, who wishes to build a tower, does not at first sit down and consider its cost, to see if he has enough to finish it?

29 Lest after he has laid the foundation, he is not able to finish it, and all who see it will mock him,

30 Saying, This man began to build, but he was not able to finish.

31 Or which king, who goes to war to fight against a king equal to him, would not at first reason, whether he is able with ten thousand to meet the one who is coming against him with twenty thousand?

32 And if not, while he is far away from him, sends envoys and seeks peace.

33 So every man of you, who would not leave all his possessions, cannot be a disciple to me.

34 Salt is good; but if the salt lose its savor, with what can it be salted?

35 It is good neither for the ground nor for fertilizing; but it is thrown out. He who has ears to hear let him hear.

2 And, behold,2400 there was a certain5100 man444 before1715 him which had the dropsy.5203

2 And there was a man before him, who had dropsy.

3 And Jesus2424 answering611 spoke2036 to the lawyers3544 and Pharisees,5330 saying,3004 Is it lawful1832 to heal2323 on the sabbath4521 day?

3 And Jesus answered and said to the scribes and Pharisees, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath?

4 And they held2270 their peace.2270 And he took1949 him, and healed2323 him, and let him go;630

4 But they kept silent. So he took him, and healed him, and let him go.

5 And answered611 them, saying,2036 Which5101 of you shall have an ass3688 or2228 an ox1016 fallen1706 into1519 a pit,5421 and will not straightway2112 pull385 him out on1722 the sabbath4521 day?2250

5 And he said to them, Which one of you, if his son or his ox should fall into a pit on the sabbath day, would not immediately pull and bring him out?

6 And they could2480 not answer470 him again470 to these5023 things.

6 And they could not answer him concerning this.

7 And he put3004 forth3004 a parable3850 to those3588 which were bidden,2564 when he marked1907 how4459 they chose1586 out the chief4411 rooms;4411 saying3004 to them.

7 And he spoke a parable to those who were invited there, because he saw them choosing places among the front seats.

8 When3752 you are bidden2564 of any5100 man444 to a wedding,1062 sit2625 not down2625 in the highest4411 room;4411 lest3379 a more honorable1784 man444 than you be bidden2564 of him;

8 When you are invited of a man to a banquet house, do not go and sit in the front seat; it might be that a more honorable man than you is invited there;

9 And he that bade2564 you and him come2064 and say2046 to you, Give1325 this5129 man444 place;5117 and you begin756 with shame152 to take2722 the lowest2078 room.5117

9 And then he who has invited you and him will come, and say to you, Give the place to him; and you will be embarrassed when you get up and take a lower seat.

10 But when3752 you are bidden,2564 go4198 and sit377 down377 in the lowest2078 room;5117 that when3752 he that bade2564 you comes,2064 he may say2036 to you, Friend,5384 go4320 up higher:511 then5119 shall you have2071 worship1391 in the presence1799 of them that sit4873 at4873 meat with you.

10 But when you are invited, go and sit at the lower end, so that when he who has invited you comes, he will say to you, My friend, go up and sit higher; and you will have glory before all who sit with you.

11 For whoever3956 3588 exalts5312 himself1438 shall be abased;5013 and he that humbles5013 himself1438 shall be exalted.5312

11 For whoever exalts himself will be humbled; and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.

12 Then1161 said3004 he also2532 to him that bade2564 him, When3752 you make4160 a dinner712 or2228 a supper,1173 call5455 not your friends,5384 nor3364 your brothers,80 neither3366 your kinsmen,4773 nor3364 your rich4145 neighbors;1069 lest3379 they also2532 bid479 you again,479 and a recompense468 be made1096 you.

12 He also said to him who had invited him, When you give a dinner or a supper, do not invite your friends, nor your brothers, nor your relatives, nor your rich neighbors; they might probally invite you, and you will be repaid for this.

13 But when3752 you make4160 a feast,1403 call2564 the poor,4434 the maimed,376 the lame,5560 the blind:5185

13 But when you give a reception, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame and the blind;

14 And you shall be blessed;3107 for they cannot3756 2192 recompense467 you: for you shall be recompensed467 at1722 the resurrection386 of the just.1342

14 And you will be blessed; for they have nothing to repay you; for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.

15 And when one5100 of them that sat4873 at4873 meat with him heard191 these5023 things, he said2036 to him, Blessed3107 is he that shall eat5315 bread740 in the kingdom932 of God.2316

15 When one of the guests heard these things, he said to him, Blessed is he who will eat bread in the kingdom of God.

16 Then1161 said2036 he to him, A certain5100 man444 made4160 a great3173 supper,1173 and bade2564 many:4183

16 Jesus said to him, A man gave a great supper, and invited many.

17 And sent649 his servant1401 at supper1173 time5610 to say2036 to them that were bidden,2564 Come;2064 for all3956 things are now2235 ready.2092

17 And he sent his servant at supper time to tell those who were invited, Behold, everything is made ready for you, come.

18 And they all3956 with one3391 consent began756 to make3868 excuse.3868 The first4413 said2036 to him, I have bought59 a piece of ground,68 and I must2192 needs318 go1831 and see1492 it: I pray2065 you have2192 me excused.3868

18 One and all, they began to make excuse. The first said to him, I have bought a field, and I am forced to go and see it; I beg you to excuse me for being called away.

19 And another2087 said,2036 I have bought59 five4002 yoke2201 of oxen,1016 and I go4198 to prove1381 them: I pray2065 you have2192 me excused.3868

19 Another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am just going to examine them; I beg you, excuse me for being called away.

20 And another2087 said,2036 I have married1060 a wife,1135 and therefore122 5124 I cannot3756 1410 come.2064

20 Another said, I have just taken a wife, and therefore I cannot come.

21 So2532 that servant1401 came,3854 and showed518 his lord2962 these5023 things. Then5119 the master3617 of the house3617 being angry3710 said2036 to his servant,1401 Go1831 out quickly5030 into1519 the streets4113 and lanes4505 of the city,4172 and bring1521 in here5602 the poor,4434 and the maimed,376 and the halt,5560 and the blind.5185

21 And the servant came and told his master these things. Then the master of the house was angry, and said to his servant, Go out quickly to the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here the poor, the afflicted, the maimed and the blind.

22 And the servant1401 said,2036 Lord,2962 it is done1096 as you have commanded,2004 and yet2089 there is room.5117

22 And the servant said, My Lord, it has been done as you commanded, and yet there is more room.

23 And the lord2962 said2036 to the servant,1401 Go1831 out into1519 the highways1327 3598 and hedges,5418 and compel315 them to come1525 in, that my house3624 may be filled.1072

23 Then the master said to his servant, Go out to the highways and hedges, and urge them to come in so that my house may be filled.

24 For I say3004 to you, That none3762 of those1565 men435 which3588 were bidden2564 shall taste1089 of my supper.1173

24 For I say to you, that not one of those men who were invited shall taste of my supper.

25 And there went4848 great4183 multitudes3793 with him: and he turned,4762 and said2036 to them,

25 And while many people were going with him, he turned and said to them,

26 If1487 any1536 man come2064 to me, and hate3404 not his father,3962 and mother,3384 and wife,1135 and children,5043 and brothers,80 and sisters,79 yes,2089 and his own1438 life5590 also,2532 he cannot3756 1410 be my disciple.3101

26 He who comes to me and does not put aside his father, and his mother, and his brothers, and his sisters, and his wife, and his children, and even his own life, he cannot be a disciple to me.

27 And whoever3748 does not bear941 his cross,4716 and come2064 after3694 me, cannot3756 1410 be my disciple.3101

27 And he who does not take up his cross and follow me, cannot be a disciple to me.

28 For which5101 of you, intending2309 to build3618 a tower,4444 sits2523 not down2523 first,4412 and counts5585 the cost,1160 whether1487 he have2192 sufficient to finish535 it?

28 For which of you, who wishes to build a tower, does not at first sit down and consider its cost, to see if he has enough to finish it?

29 Lest2443 3361 haply,3379 after he has laid5087 the foundation,2310 and is not able2480 to finish1615 it, all3956 that behold2334 it begin756 to mock1702 him,

29 Lest after he has laid the foundation, he is not able to finish it, and all who see it will mock him,

30 Saying,3004 This3778 man444 began756 to build,3618 and was not able2480 to finish.1615

30 Saying, This man began to build, but he was not able to finish.

31 Or2228 what5101 king,935 going4198 to make4820 war4171 against another2087 king,935 sits2523 not down2523 first,4412 and consults1011 whether1487 he be able1415 with ten1176 thousand5505 to meet528 him that comes2064 against1909 him with twenty1501 thousand?5505

31 Or which king, who goes to war to fight against a king equal to him, would not at first reason, whether he is able with ten thousand to meet the one who is coming against him with twenty thousand?

32 Or1161 else,1490 while the other846 is yet2089 a great4183 way4206 off,631 he sends649 an ambassador,4242 and desires2065 conditions4314 of peace.1515

32 And if not, while he is far away from him, sends envoys and seeks peace.

33 So3767 likewise,3779 whoever3956 he be of you that forsakes657 not all3956 that he has,5224 he cannot3756 1410 be my disciple.3101

33 So every man of you, who would not leave all his possessions, cannot be a disciple to me.

34 Salt217 is good:2570 but if1437 the salt217 have lost3471 his flavor,3471 with which1722 5101 shall it be seasoned?741

34 Salt is good; but if the salt lose its savor, with what can it be salted?

35 It is neither3777 fit2111 for the land,1095 nor3777 yet for the dunghill;2874 but men cast906 it out. He that has2192 ears3775 to hear,191 let him hear.191
