King James Version
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 ,
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 .
and lo
, there was a certain dropsical
man before him ;
And, behold,
there was a certain man before him which
had
the
dropsy.
and Jesus answering spake to
the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, `
Is it lawful on the sabbath -
day to
heal
? '
And Jesus answering spake unto
the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to
heal
on the sabbath day?
and they were
silent,
and having
taken
hold
of
`
him '
, he
healed him, and let `
him '
go;
And they held
their
peace.
And he
took
him, and
healed him, and let him go;
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 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?
and they were
not able
to
answer him again unto
these things.
And they could
not answer him again to
these things.
And he spake
a simile
unto
those called
, marking
how they were
choosing
out the first
couches,
saying unto them ,
And he put
forth
a parable
to
those which
were
bidden
, when
he
marked
how they chose
out the chief
rooms;
saying unto them .
`
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 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 ;
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
.
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
.
`
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 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 .
because
every
one
who
is
exalting
himself shall be humbled,
and he who
is
humbling
himself shall be exalted. '
For
whosoever
exalteth
himself shall be abased;
and he that
humbleth
himself shall 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
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 .
but when thou mayest
make
a feast, be
calling
poor, maimed, lame, blind ,
But when thou makest
a feast, call
the
poor, the
maimed, the
lame, 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 thou shalt be blessed;
for
they cannot
recompense thee :
for thou
shalt
be recompensed at
the resurrection
of the just
.
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 ;'
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 .
and
he
said to
him, `
A certain man made a great supper, and called
many ,
Then
said he
unto
him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade
many :
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.
And sent his servant at supper time
to say to them
that
were
bidden
, Come;
for
all things are
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.
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.
`
And another said, Five yoke of oxen I
bought
, and I go on
to prove them ;
I beg
of
thee ,
have me excused :
And another said, I
have
bought
five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them :
I pray
thee have me excused .
and another said, A
wife
I married, and because
of
this
I am
not
able
to
come.
And another said, I have
married a
wife
, and therefore
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
.
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.
`
And the servant said, Sir
, it hath
been
done as thou didst
command
, and still
there is room.
And the servant said, Lord
, it is
done as thou hast
commanded
, and yet
there is 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 ;
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 .
for I say to
you, that none of those men who
have
been
called
shall taste of my supper. '
For I say unto
you, That none of those men which
were
bidden
shall taste of my supper.
And there were
going
on
with
him
great multitudes ,
and having
turned, he
said unto them,
And there went
great multitudes with
him:
and he
turned, and
said unto 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 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 .
and whoever
doth not bear his cross, and come after me, is
not
able
to
be my disciple.
And whosoever
doth not bear his cross, and come after 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
?
For which
of you, intending
to build a tower, sitteth
not down first
, and
counteth
the cost
, whether he have sufficient
to
finish
it
?
lest that
he having
laid a
foundation, and not being
able to finish, all who
are
beholding
may
begin to mock him,
Lest haply,
after
he hath
laid the
foundation, and is
not able to finish it
, all that
behold
it
begin to mock him,
saying --
This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
Saying ,
This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
`
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 ,
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?
and
if
not
so
--
he
being
yet a long
way off --
having
sent
an
embassy
, he doth
ask
the
things
for
peace.
Or
else,
while
the
other
is
yet a great
way off, he sendeth
an
ambassage,
and
desireth
conditions
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.
So likewise
, whosoever
he
be
of you that
forsaketh
not all that he hath, he
cannot
be my disciple.
`The
salt `
is '
good ,
but if the salt doth
become
tasteless
, with
what
shall it be seasoned?
Salt is good :
but if the salt have
lost
his
savour
, wherewith
shall it be seasoned?
neither for land nor for manure
is
it
fit
--
they
cast it without
. He who
is
having
ears to hear --
let him hear. '
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.
