1 And it came G2064 to pass ἐγένετο egeneto G1096 , when he went into the house οἶκόν oikon G3624 of one τινος tinos G5100 of the rulers ἀρχόντων archontōn G758 of the Pharisees Φαρισαίων Pharisaiōn G5330 on a sabbath σαββάτῳ sabbatō G4521 to eat G2068 bread ἄρτον arton G740 , that they were G1510 watching παρατηρούμενοι paratēroumenoi G3906 him . 2 And behold ἰδοὺ idou G2400 , there was G1510 before him a certain τις tis G5100 man ἄνθρωπός anthrōpos G444 that had the dropsy . 3 And Jesus Ἰησοῦς Iēsous G2424 answering ἀποκριθεὶς apokritheis G611 spake unto the lawyers νομικοὺς nomikous G3544 and Pharisees Φαρισαίους Pharisaious G5330 , saying λέγων· legōn G3004 , Is it lawful ἔξεστιν exestin G1832 to heal θεραπεῦσαι therapeusai G2323 on the sabbath σαββάτῳ sabbatō G4521 , or not ? 4 But they held their peace. And he took him , and healed ἰάσατο iasato G2390 him , and let him go ἀπέλυσεν.¶ apelusen G630 . 5 And he said G3004 unto them , Which of you shall have an ass or an ox βοῦς bous G1016 fallen G4098 into a well , and will not straightway draw him up on a sabbath σαββάτου; sabbatou G4521 day ἡμέρᾳ hēmera G2250 ? 6 And they could not answer again unto these things ταῦτα.¶ tauta G3778 . 7 And he spake a parable παραβολὴν parabolēn G3850 unto those that were bidden, when he marked how πῶς pōs G4459 they chose out the chief seats; saying G3004 unto them , 8 When ὅταν hotan G3752 thou art bidden of any man to a marriage G1062 feast γάμους, gamous G1062 , sit not down in the chief seat; lest G3361 haply a more honorable man than thou be G1510 bidden of him , 9 and he that bade thee and him shall come ἐλθὼν elthōn G2064 and say G3004 to thee, Give δὸς dos G1325 this man G3778 place τόπον. topon G5117 ; and then thou shalt begin ἄρξῃ arxē G757 with shame αἰσχύνης aischunēs G152 to take the lowest place τόπον topon G5117 . 10 But when ὅταν hotan G3752 thou art bidden, go G4198 and sit down in the lowest place τόπον, topon G5117 ; that when ὅταν hotan G3752 he that hath bidden thee cometh, he may say G3004 to thee, Friend φίλε, phile G5384 , go G4198 up higher : then τότε tote G5119 shalt thou have glory δόξα doxa G1391 in the presence G1799 of all that sit at meat with thee. 11 For every one that exalteth himself shall be humbled G5013 ; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted G5312 . 12 And he said Ἔλεγεν Elegen G3004 to him also G2532 that had bidden him , When ὅταν hotan G3752 thou makest a dinner or a supper δεῖπνον, deipnon G1173 , call G2564 not thy friends φίλους philous G5384 , nor thy brethren , nor thy kinsmen, nor rich πλουσίους plousious G4145 neighbors ; lest G3361 haply they also G2532 bid thee again , and a recompense be made ποιῇς poiēas G4160 thee. 13 But when ὅταν hotan G3752 thou makest a feast, bid the poor πτωχούς, ptōchous G4434 , the maimed, the lame χωλούς, chōlous G5560 , the blind τυφλούς. tuphlous G5185 : 14 and thou shalt be ἔσῃ, esē G1510 blessed ; because they have not wherewith to recompense thee: for thou shalt be G1510 recompensed in the resurrection ἀναστάσει anastasei G386 of the just G1342 . 15 And when one τις tis G5100 of them that sat at meat with him heard G191 these things ταῦτα tauta G3778 , he said G3004 unto him , Blessed is he that shall eat G2068 bread ἄρτον arton G740 in the kingdom βασιλείᾳ basileia G932 of God θεοῦ.¶ theou G2316 . 18 And they all with one μιᾶς mias G1520 consent began G757 to make excuse . The first πρῶτος prōtos G4413 said G3004 unto him , I have bought G59 a field ἀγρὸν agron G68 , and I must needs go G1831 out and see G3708 it ; I pray thee have me excused . 19 And another said G3004 , I have bought G59 five πέντε pente G4002 yoke of oxen βοῶν boōn G1016 , and I go G4198 to prove them ; I pray thee have me excused . 21 And the servant δοῦλος doulos G1401 came G1831 , and told G3004 his lord G2962 these things ταῦτα.¶ tauta G3778 . Then the master κυρίῳ kuriō G2962 of the house οἰκοδεσπότης oikodespotēs G3617 being angry ὀργισθεὶς orgistheis G3710 said G3004 to his servant δούλῳ doulō G1401 , Go ἔξελθε exelthe G1831 out quickly into the streets G4505 and lanes of the city πόλεως, poleōs G4172 , and bring εἰσάγαγε eisagage G1521 in hither the poor πτωχοὺς ptōchous G4434 and maimed and blind τυφλοὺς tuphlous G5185 and lame χωλοὺς chōlous G5560 . 23 And the lord G2962 said G3004 unto the servant δοῦλον· doulon G1401 , Go ἔξελθε exelthe G1831 out into the highways ὁδοὺς hodous G3598 and hedges , and constrain them to come G1831 in , that my house οἶκος. oikos G3624 may be filled γεμισθῇ gemisthēa G1072 . 24 For I say λέγω legō G3004 unto you , that none G3762 of those men G435 that were bidden shall taste γεύσεταί geusetai G1089 of my supper δείπνου deipnou G1173 . 26 If any man cometh unto me , and hateth not his own G1438 father πατέρα patera G3962 , and mother μητέρα mētera G3384 , and wife γυναῖκα gunaika G1135 , and children G5043 , and brethren , and sisters ἀδελφάς, adelphas G79 , yea, and his own G1438 life ψυχὴν psuchēn G5590 also G2532 , he cannot be G1510 my disciple μαθητής. mathētēs G3101 . 28 For which of you , desiring G2309 to build οἰκοδομῆσαι oikodomēsai G3618 a tower πύργον purgon G4444 , doth not first πρῶτον prōton G4413 sit G2523 down καθίσας kathisas G2523 and count the cost, whether he have wherewith to complete it ? 29 Lest G3361 haply, when he hath laid θέντος thentos G5087 a foundation θεμέλιον themelion G2310 , and is not able ἰσχύοντος ischuontos G2480 to finish ἐκτελέσαι ektelesai G1615 , all that behold begin ἄρξωνται arxōntai G757 to mock ἐμπαίζειν empaizein G1702 him , 30 saying λέγοντες legontes G3004 , This man ἄνθρωπος anthrōpos G444 began G757 to build οἰκοδομεῖν oikodomein G3618 , and was not able ἴσχυσεν ischusen G2480 to finish ἐκτελέσαι. ektelesai G1615 . 31 Or what king βασιλεὺς basileus G935 , as he goeth to encounter another king βασιλεῖ basilei G935 in war πόλεμον polemon G4171 , will not sit G2523 down first πρῶτον prōton G4413 and take counsel whether he is G1510 able δυνατός dunatos G1415 with ten δέκα deka G1176 thousand χιλιάσιν chiliasin G5505 to meet him that cometh against him with twenty εἴκοσι eikosi G1501 thousand χιλιάδων chiliadōn G5505 ? 32 Or else, while the other is G1510 yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and asketh conditions of peace εἰρήνην.¶ eirēnēn G1515 . 33 So therefore οὖν oun G3767 whosoever he be G1510 of you that renounceth not all that he hath, he cannot be G1510 my disciple μαθητής.¶ mathētēs G3101 . 34 Salt ἅλας· halas G217 therefore οὖν oun G3767 is good Καλὸν Kalon G2570 : but if even καὶ kai G2532 the salt ἅλας halas G217 have lost its savor, wherewith shall it be seasoned ἀρτυθήσεται; artuthēsetai G741 ? 35 It is G1510 fit neither for the land G1093 nor for the dunghill: men cast βάλλουσιν ballousin G906 it out . He that hath ears ὦτα ōta G3775 to hear ἀκούειν akouein G191 , let him hear ἀκουέτω.¶ akouetō G191 . ← Luke 13 Luke 15 → American Standard Version — 1901 — Public Domain
