Verse YLT Young's Literal Translation BSB Berean Standard Bible
And it came to pass, on his going into the house of a certain one of the chiefs of the Pharisees, on a sabbath, to eat bread , that they were watching him ,
One Sabbath, Jesus went to eat in the home of a leading Pharisee , and those in attendance were watching Him closely.
and lo, there was a certain dropsical man before him;
Right there before Him was a man with dropsy.
and Jesus answering spake to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, ` Is it lawful on the sabbath -day to heal ? '
So Jesus asked the experts in the law and the Pharisees, Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not ?
and they were silent , and having taken hold of `him' , he healed him, and let ` him ' go;
But they remained silent . Then Jesus took hold of the man , healed him, and sent him on his way.
and answering them he said , `Of which of you shall an ass or ox fall into a pit , and he will not immediately draw it up on the sabbath - day? '
And He asked them , Which of you whose son or ox falls into a pit on the Sabbath day will not immediately pull him out ?
and they were not able to answer him again unto these things .
And they were unable to answer these questions .
And he spake a simile unto those called, marking how they were choosing out the first couches , saying unto them ,
When Jesus noticed how the guests chose the places of honor , He told them a parable:
` When thou mayest be called by any one to marriage-feasts , thou mayest not recline on the first couch , lest a more honourable than thou may have been called by him,
When you are invited to a wedding banquet , do not sit in the place of honor , in case someone more distinguished than you has been invited.
and he who did call thee and him having come shall say to thee , Give to this one place, and then thou mayest begin with shame to occupy the last place.
Then the host who invited both of you will come and tell you , Give this man your seat.’ And in humiliation, you will have to take the last place.
` But , when thou mayest be called, having gone on , recline in the last place, that when he who called thee may come , he may say to thee , Friend, come up higher; then thou shalt have glory before those reclining with thee;
But when you are invited , go and sit in the last place, so that your host will come and tell you , Friend, move up to a better place.’ Then you will be honored in front of everyone at the table with you.
because every one who is exalting himself shall be humbled, and he who is humbling himself shall be exalted. '
For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.
And he said also to him who did call him, ` When thou mayest make a dinner or a supper , be not calling thy friends , nor thy brethren, nor thy kindred, nor rich neighbours , lest they may also call thee again , and a recompense may come to thee;
Then Jesus said to the man who had invited Him, When you host a dinner or a banquet , do not invite your friends or brothers or relatives or rich neighbors. Otherwise , they may invite you in return , and you will be repaid.
but when thou mayest make a feast , be calling poor, maimed , lame, blind,
But when you host a banquet , invite the poor, the crippled , the lame, and the blind,
and happy thou shalt be , because they have not to recompense thee , for it shall be recompensed to thee in the rising again of the righteous. '
and you will be blessed. Since they cannot repay you , you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.
And one of those reclining with him , having heard these things , said to him , `Happy ` is ' he who shall eat bread in the reign of God ;'
When one of those reclining with Him heard this , he said to Jesus , “Blessed is everyone who will eat at the feast in the kingdom of God .”
and he said to him , ` A certain man made a great supper, and called many ,
But Jesus replied , A certain man prepared a great banquet and invited many guests.
and he sent his servant at the hour of the supper to say to those having been called , Be coming , because now are all things ready.
When it was time for the banquet, he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited , ‘Come , for everything is now ready.
`And they began with one consent all to excuse themselves: The first said to him , A field I bought, and I have need to go forth and see it ; I beg of thee, have me excused .
But one after another they all began to make excuses. The first one said, I have bought a field , and I need to go see it . Please excuse me.
`And another said, Five yoke of oxen I bought , and I go on to prove them ; I beg of thee, have me excused:
Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out. Please excuse me .’
and another said, A wife I married, and because of this I am not able to come.
Still another said, I have married a wife , so I cannot come.
`And that servant having come, told to his lord these things, then the master of the house , having been angry , said to his servant, Go forth quickly to the broad places and lanes of the city, and the poor, and maimed, and lame , and blind, bring in hither .
The servant returned and reported all this to his master. Then the owner of the house became angry and said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the city, and bring in the poor, the crippled , the blind, and the lame .
`And the servant said, Sir , it hath been done as thou didst command , and still there is room.
‘Sir,’ the servant replied , ‘what you ordered has been done, and there is still room.
`And the lord said unto the servant, Go forth to the ways and hedges , and constrain to come in, that my house may be filled;
So the master told his servant, Go out to the highways and hedges and compel them to come in, so that my house will be full.
for I say to you, that none of those men who have been called shall taste of my supper . '
For I tell you, not one of those men who were invited will taste my banquet . ’”
And there were going on with him great multitudes , and having turned, he said unto them,
Large crowds were now traveling with Jesus , and He turned and said to them,
` If any one doth come unto me , and doth not hate his own father , and mother , and wife , and children , and brothers , and sisters, and yet even his own life , he is not able to be my disciple ;
If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters —yes , even his own life he cannot be My disciple .
and whoever doth not bear his cross , and come after me , is not able to be my disciple.
And whoever does not carry his cross and follow Me cannot be My disciple.
`For who of you, willing to build a tower, doth not first , having sat down , count the expense, whether he have the things for completing ?
Which of you, wishing to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost to see if he has the resources to complete it ?
lest that he having laid a foundation , and not being able to finish, all who are beholding may begin to mock him,
Otherwise, if he lays the foundation and is unable to finish the work , everyone who sees it will ridicule him,
saying -- This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
saying , This man could not finish what he started to build .
` Or what king going on to engage with another king in war, doth not , having sat down, first consult if he be able with ten thousand to meet him who with twenty thousand is coming against him ?
Or what king on his way to war with another king will not first sit down and consider whether he can engage with ten thousand men the one coming against him with twenty thousand?
and if not so -- he being yet a long way off -- having sent an embassy , he doth ask the things for peace.
And if he is unable, he will send a delegation while the other king is still far off, to ask for terms of peace.
`So, then , every one of you who doth not take leave of all that he himself hath, is not able to be my disciple.
In the same way , any one of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be My disciple.
`The salt ` is ' good, but if the salt doth become tasteless , with what shall it be seasoned?

It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile, and it is thrown out . He who has ears to hear , let him hear.
