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 .
