Luke:14:1-14




asv@Luke:14:1 @And it came to pass, when he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching him.

asv@Luke:14:2 @And behold, there was before him a certain man that had the dropsy.

asv@Luke:14:3 @And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath, or not?

asv@Luke:14:4 @But they held their peace. And he took him, and healed him, and let him go.

asv@Luke:14:5 @And he said unto them, Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fallen into a well, and will not straightway draw him up on a sabbath day?

asv@Luke:14:6 @And they could not answer again unto these things.

asv@Luke:14:7 @And he spake a parable unto those that were bidden, when he marked how they chose out the chief seats; saying unto them,

asv@Luke:14:8 @When thou art bidden of any man to a marriage feast, sit not down in the chief seat; lest haply a more honorable man than thou be bidden of him,

asv@Luke:14:9 @and he that bade thee and him shall come and say to thee, Give this man place; and then thou shalt begin with shame to take the lowest place.

asv@Luke:14:10 @But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest place; that when he that hath bidden thee cometh, he may say to thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have glory in the presence of all that sit at meat with thee.

asv@Luke:14:11 @For everyone that exalteth himself shall be humbled; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

asv@Luke:14:12 @And he said to him also that had bidden him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor thy kinsmen, nor rich neighbors; lest haply they also bid thee again, and a recompense be made thee.

asv@Luke:14:13 @But when thou makest a feast, bid the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind:

asv@Luke:14:14 @and thou shalt be blessed; because they have not [wherewith] to recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed in the resurrection of the just.
