gltv - Luke:14:1-14

gltv@Luke:14:1 @ And it occurred, on His going into a house of one of the Pharisee leaders on a sabbath to eat bread, even they were closely observing Him.

gltv@Luke:14:2 @ And behold, a certain man was dropsical before Him.

gltv@Luke:14:3 @ And answering, Jesus spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, asking whether it is lawful to heal on the sabbath.

gltv@Luke:14:4 @ And they were silent. And taking the man, He cured him and let him go.

gltv@Luke:14:5 @ And answering to them He said, Whose ass or ox of yours shall fall into a pit, and he will not at once pull it up on the sabbath day?

gltv@Luke:14:6 @ And they were not able to reply to Him against these things.

gltv@Luke:14:7 @ And He spoke a parable to those who had been invited, noting how they were choosing out the chief seats, saying to them,

gltv@Luke:14:8 @ When you are invited by anyone to wedding feasts, do not recline at the chief seat lest one more honorable than you be invited by him,

gltv@Luke:14:9 @ and coming, he who invited you will say to you, Give this one place. And then you begin with shame to take the last place.

gltv@Luke:14:10 @ But when you are invited, going in, recline at the last place, so that when he who has invited you may come, he may say to you, Friend, go up higher. Then glory will be to you before those reclining with you.

gltv@Luke:14:11 @ For everyone exalting himself will be humbled, and the one humbling himself will be exalted.

gltv@Luke:14:12 @ And He also said to him who had invited Him, When you make a dinner or supper, do not call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your relatives, nor rich neighbors, lest they also should invite you in return, and it become a repayment to you.

gltv@Luke:14:13 @ But when you make a banquet, call the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind;

gltv@Luke:14:14 @ and then you will be blessed, for they have nothing to repay you. For it will be repaid to you in the resurrection of the just.
