Luke:14:1-14

acv@Luke:14:1 @ And it came to pass, when he went into the house of a certain man of the chiefs of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching him.

acv@Luke:14:2 @ And behold, there was a certain man in front of him afflicted with edema.

acv@Luke:14:3 @ And having responded, Jesus spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it permitted to heal on the Sabbath?

acv@Luke:14:4 @ But they were silent. And having taken him, he healed him and released him.

acv@Luke:14:5 @ And having responded, he said to them, Of which of you will a son or an ox fall into a pit, and he will not straightaway lift him out on the day of the Sabbath?

acv@Luke:14:6 @ And they could not answer him back to these things.

acv@Luke:14:7 @ And he spoke a parable to those who were invited when he noticed how they chose out the chief places, saying to them,

acv@Luke:14:8 @ When thou are invited by any man to wedding festivities, do not sit down in the chief place, lest there may be a more honorable man than thou who was invited by him.

acv@Luke:14:9 @ And he who invited thee and him, having come, will say to thee, Give place to this man, and then thou will begin with embarrassment to take the last place.

acv@Luke:14:10 @ But when thou are invited, having gone, sit down in the last place, so that when he who has invited thee comes, he will say to thee, Friend, go up higher, then it will be esteem to thee in the presence of those dining with thee.

acv@Luke:14:11 @ Because every man who lifts himself up will be made lower, and he who makes himself lower will be lifted up.

acv@Luke:14:12 @ And he also said to the man who invited him, When thou make a dinner or a supper, do not call thy friends, nor thy brothers, nor thy kinsmen, nor prosperous neighbors, lest they also invite thee in return, and a recompense be made

acv@Luke:14:13 @ But when thou make a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind,

acv@Luke:14:14 @ and thou will be blessed, because they do not have to recompense thee, for it will be recompensed to thee at the resurrection of the righteous.
