Book 42 : LUKE - Chapter 014

014:001

And, behold, there was a certain man before him which had the dropsy

014:002

And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day

014:003

And they held their peace. And he took him, and healed him, and let him go

014:004

And answered them, saying, Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fallen into a pit, and will not straightway pull him out on the sabbath day

014:005

And they could not answer him again to these things

014:006

And he put forth a parable to those which were bidden, when he marked how they chose out the chief rooms; saying unto them

014:007

When thou art bidden of any man to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him

014:008

And he that bade thee and him come and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room

014:009

But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee

014:010

For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted

014:011

Then said he also to him that bade him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor thy rich neighbours; lest they also bid thee again, and a recompence be made thee

014:012

But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind

014:013

And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just

014:014

And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God

014:015

Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many

014:016

And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready

014:017

And they all with one consent began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused

014:018

And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused

014:019

And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come

014:020

So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind

014:021

And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room

014:022

And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled

014:023

For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper

014:024

And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned, and said unto them

014:025

If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple

014:026

And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple

014:027

For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it

014:028

Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him

014:029

Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish

014:030

Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand

014:031

Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace

014:032

So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple

014:033

Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned

014:034

It is neither fit for the land, nor yet for the dunghill; but men cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear
