42_LUK_14_01 And it came to pass , as he went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath day , that they watched him .
42_LUK_14_02 And , behold , there was A certain man before him which had the dropsy .
42_LUK_14_03 And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers And Pharisees , saying , Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day ?
42_LUK_14_04 And they held their peace . And he took [ him ] , And healed him , And let him go ;
42_LUK_14_05 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 ?
42_LUK_14_06 And they could not answer him again to These things .
42_LUK_14_07 And he put forth A parable to those which were bidden , when he marked how they chose out the chief rooms ; saying unto them ,
42_LUK_14_08 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 ;
42_LUK_14_09 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 .
42_LUK_14_10 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 .
42_LUK_14_11 for whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased ; And he that humbleth himself shall be exalted .
42_LUK_14_12 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 recompense be made thee .
42_LUK_14_13 but when thou makest A feast , call the poor , the maimed , the lame , the blind :
42_LUK_14_14 And thou shalt be blessed ; for they cannot recompense thee : for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just .
42_LUK_14_15 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 .
42_LUK_14_16 Then said he unto him , A certain man made A great supper , And bade Many :
42_LUK_14_17 And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden , come ; for all things are now ready .
42_LUK_14_18 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 .
42_LUK_14_19 And another said , I have bought five yoke of oxen , And I go to prove them : I pray thee have me excused .
42_LUK_14_20 And another said , I have married A wife , And therefore I cannot come .
42_LUK_14_21 So that servant came , And showed 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 .
42_LUK_14_22 And the servant said , LORD , it Is done as thou hast commanded , And yet there Is room .
42_LUK_14_23 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 .
42_LUK_14_24 for I say unto you , that none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper .
42_LUK_14_25 And there went great multitudes with him : And he turned , And said unto them ,
42_LUK_14_26 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 .
42_LUK_14_27 And whosoever Doth not bear his cross , And come after me , cannot be my disciple .
42_LUK_14_28 for which of you , intending to build A tower , sitteth not down first , And counteth the cost , whether he have [ sufficient ] to finish [ it ] ?
42_LUK_14_29 lest haply , after he hath laid the foundation , And Is not able to finish [ it ] , all that behold [ it ] begin to mock him ,
42_LUK_14_30 saying , this man began to build , And was not able to finish .
42_LUK_14_31 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 ?
42_LUK_14_32 or else , while the other Is yet A great way off , he sendeth an ambassage , And desireth conditions of peace .
42_LUK_14_33 So Likewise , whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath , he cannot be my disciple .
42_LUK_14_34 salt [ Is ] good : but if the salt have lost his savour , wherewith shall it be seasoned ?
42_LUK_14_35 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 .
