14And it came about when He went into the house of one of the leaders of the Pharisees on [the] Sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching Him closely.G2532G1096G1722G846G2064G1519G3624G5100G758G5330G5315G740G4521G2532G846G2258G3906G846 2And there, in front of Him was a certain man suffering from dropsy.G2532G2400G2258G5100G444G1715G846G5203 3And Jesus answered and spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, " Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath, or not? "G2532G2424G611G2036G4314G3544G2532G5330G3004G1487G1832G2323G4521 4But they kept silent. And He took hold of him, and healed him, and sent him away.G1161G2270G2532G1949G2390G846G2532G630 5And He said to them, "Which one of you shall have a son or an ox fall into a well, and will not immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?"G2532G611G4314G846G2036G5101G5216G3688G2228G1016G1706G1519G5421G2532G385G3756G2112G385G846G385G1722G4521G2250 6And they could make no reply to this.G2532G2480G3756G470G846G470G4314G5023 7And He [began] speaking a parable to the invited guests when He noticed how they had been picking out the places of honor [at the table;] saying to them,G1161G3004G3850G4314G2564G1907G4459G1586G4411G3004G4314G846 8"When you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not take the place of honor, lest someone more distinguished than you may have been invited by him,G3752G2564G5259G5100G1519G1062G2625G3361G2625G1519G4411G3379G1784G4675G5600G2564G5259G846 9and he who invited you both shall come and say to you, 'Give place to this man,' and then in disgrace you proceed to occupy the last place.G2532G2564G4571G2532G846G2064G2046G4671G1325G5129G5117G2532G5119G756G3326G152G2722G2078G5117 10"But when you are invited, go and recline at the last place, so that when the one who has invited you comes, he may say to you, 'Friend, move up higher'; then you will have honor in the sight of all who are at the table with you.G235G3752G2564G4198G377G1519G2078G5117G2443G3752G2564G4571G2064G2036G4671G5384G4320G511G5119G4671G2071G1391G1799G4873G4671 11"For everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted."G3754G3956G5312G1438G5013G2532G5013G1438G5312 12And He also went on to say to the one who had invited Him, "When you give a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return, and repayment come to you.G1161G3004G2532G2564G846G3752G4160G712G2228G1173G5455G3361G4675G5384G3366G4675G80G3366G4675G4773G3366G4145G1069G3379G846G2532G479G4571G479G2532G468G1096G4671 13"But when you give a reception, invite [the] poor, [the] crippled, [ the] lame, [the] blind,G235G3752G4160G1403G2564G4434G376G5560G5185 14and you will be blessed, since they do not have [the means] to repay you; for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous. "G2532G2071G3107G3754G3756G2192G467G4671G1063G4671G467G1722G386G1342 15And when one of those who were reclining [at the table] with Him heard this, he said to Him, "Blessed is everyone who shall eat bread in the kingdom of God!"G1161G5100G4873G191G5023G2036G846G3107G3739G5315G740G1722G932G2316 16But He said to him, "A certain man was giving a big dinner, and he invited many;G1161G2036G846G5100G444G4160G3173G1173G2532G2564G4183 17and at the dinner hour he sent his slave to say to those who had been invited, 'Come; for everything is ready now.'G2532G649G846G1401G1173G5610G2036G2564G2064G3754G3956G2076G2235G2092 18"But they all alike began to make excuses. The first one said to him, 'I have bought a piece of land and I need to go out and look at it; please consider me excused.'G2532G3956G575G3391G756G3868G4413G2036G846G59G68G2532G2192G318G1831G2532G1492G846G2065G4571G2192G3165G3868 19"And another one said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out; please consider me excused.'G2532G2087G2036G59G4002G2201G1016G2532G4198G1381G846G2065G4571G2192G3165G3868 20"And another one said, 'I have married a wife, and for that reason I cannot come.'G2532G2087G2036G1060G1135G2532G1223G5124G3756G1410G2064 21"And the slave came [back] and reported this to his master. Then the head of the household became angry and said to his slave, 'Go out at once into the streets and lanes of the city and bring in here the poor and crippled and blind and lame.'G2532G1565G1401G3854G518G846G2962G5023G5119G3617G3710G2036G846G1401G1831G5030G1519G4113G2532G4505G4172G2532G1521G5602G4434G2532G376G2532G5560G2532G5185 22"And the slave said, 'Master, what you commanded has been done, and still there is room.'G2532G1401G2036G2962G1096G5613G2004G2532G2089G2076G5117 23"And the master said to the slave, 'Go out into the highways and along the hedges, and compel [them] to come in, that my house may be filled.G2532G2962G2036G4314G1401G1831G1519G3598G2532G5418G2532G315G1525G2443G3450G3624G1072 24'For I tell you, none of those men who were invited shall taste of my dinner.' "G1063G3004G5213G3754G3762G1565G435G3588G2564G1089G3450G1173 25Now great multitudes were going along with Him; and He turned and said to them,G1161G4848G4183G3793G846G2532G4762G2036G4314G846 26"If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple.G1536G2064G4314G3165G2532G3404G3756G1438G3962G2532G3384G2532G1135G2532G5043G2532G80G2532G79G2089G1161G1438G5590G2532G3756G1410G1511G3450G3101 27"Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple.G2532G3748G941G3756G941G846G4716G2532G2064G3694G3450G3756G1410G1511G3450G3101 28"For which one of you, when he wants to build a tower, does not first sit down and calculate the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?G1063G5101G1537G5216G2309G3618G4444G2523G3780G2523G4412G5585G1160G1487G2192G4314G535 29"Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, all who observe it begin to ridicule him,G3363G3379G846G5087G2310G2532G2480G3361G2480G1615G3956G2334G756G1702G846 30saying, 'This man began to build and was not able to finish.'G3004G3754G3778G444G756G3618G2532G2480G3756G2480G1615 31"Or what king, when he sets out to meet another king in battle, will not first sit down and take counsel whether he is strong enough with ten thousand [men] to encounter the one coming against him with twenty thousand?G2228G5101G935G4198G4820G4171G1519G2087G935G2523G3780G2523G4412G1011G1487G2076G1415G1722G1176G5505G528G2064G1909G846G3326G1501G5505 32"Or else, while the other is still far away, he sends a delegation and asks terms of peace.G1490G846G5607G2089G4206G649G4242G2065G4314G1515 33"So therefore, no one of you can be My disciple who does not give up all his own possessions.G3779G3767G3956G1537G5216G3739G657G3756G3956G5224G1438G3756G1410G1511G3450G3101 34"Therefore, salt is good; but if even salt has become tasteless, with what will it be seasoned?G217G2570G1161G1437G217G3471G1722G5101G741 35"It is useless either for the soil or for the manure pile; it is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear."G2076G3777G2111G1519G1093G3777G1519G2874G906G846G1854G2192G3775G191G191
