Luke 14:7-24

7AndG1161 heG846 spake a parableG3850 unto thoseG3588 whichG3588 were bidden, whenG1161 heG846 marked howG4459 theyG846 choseG1586 outG1438 theG3588 chief seats; sayingG3004 unto themG846,

8WhenG3752 thou art bidden ofG5100 anyG5100 manG5100 toG1519 aG1510 marriageG1062 feastG1062, sitG2625 notG3361 downG2625 inG1519 theG3588 chief seat; lestG3361 haply aG1510 moreG1784 honourable manG5100 thanG3361 thou beG1510 bidden ofG5100 himG846,

9andG2532 heG2532 thatG3004 bade thee andG2532 himG846 shallG3778 comeG2064 andG2532 sayG3004 toG3004 thee, GiveG1325 thisG3778 manG3778 placeG5117; andG2532 thenG2532 thou shalt beginG757 withG3326 shameG152 toG3004 take theG3588 lowest placeG5117.

10ButG235 whenG3752 thou art bidden, goG4198 andG2064 sitG377 downG377 inG1519 theG3956 lowest placeG5117; thatG2443 whenG3752 heG3004 thatG2443 hath bidden thee cometh, heG3004 mayG2443 sayG3004 toG1519 thee, FriendG5384, goG4198 upG1519 higherG511: thenG5119 shalt thou haveG1510 gloryG1391 inG1519 theG3956 presenceG1799 ofG1799 allG3956 thatG2443 sitG377 at meatG3588 withG1519 thee.

11ForG3754 everyG3956 oneG1438 thatG3754 exalteth himselfG1438 shallG2532 beG2532 humbledG5013; andG2532 heG2532 thatG3754 humbleth himselfG1438 shallG2532 beG2532 exaltedG5312.

12AndG2532 heG2532 saidG3004 toG3004 himG846 alsoG2532 thatG3004 had bidden himG846, WhenG3752 thou makest a dinnerG1173 orG2228 a supperG1173, callG2564 notG3361 thy friendsG5384, norG3366 thy brethrenG80, norG3366 thy kinsmen, norG3366 richG4145 neighbours; lestG3361 haply theyG846 alsoG2532 bid thee againG2532, andG2532 a recompense beG1096 madeG4160 thee.

13ButG235 whenG3752 thou makest a feast, bid theG4160 poorG4434, theG4160 maimed, theG4160 lameG5560, theG4160 blindG5185:

14andG2532 thou shalt beG1510 blessedG3107; becauseG3754 theyG2532 have notG3756 wherewith toG2532 recompense thee: forG1063 thou shalt beG1510 recompensed inG1722 theG3588 resurrectionG386 ofG1722 theG3588 justG1342.

15AndG1161 whenG1161 oneG5100 ofG932 themG846 thatG3004 sat at meatG3588 withG1722 himG846 heardG191 theseG3778 thingsG3778, heG846 saidG3004 unto himG846, BlessedG3107 is heG846 thatG3004 shallG3778 eatG2068 breadG740 inG1722 theG3588 kingdomG932 ofG932 GodG2316.

16ButG1161 heG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, A certainG5100 manG444 madeG4160 a greatG3173 supperG1173; andG2532 heG2532 bade manyG4183:

17andG2532 heG2532 sentG649 forthG649 hisG846 servantG1401 at supperG1173 timeG5610 toG3004 sayG3004 toG3004 themG846 thatG3754 wereG1510 bidden, ComeG2064; forG3754 allG3588 thingsG846 areG1510 nowG2532 readyG2092.

18AndG2532 theyG846 allG3956 withG575 oneG1520 consent beganG757 toG3004 makeG59 excuseG3868. TheG3956 firstG4413 saidG3004 unto himG846, IG1473 have boughtG59 a fieldG68, andG2532 IG1473 must needs goG1831 outG1831 andG2532 seeG3708 itG846: IG1473 pray thee have meG3004 excusedG3868.

19AndG2532 anotherG2087 saidG3004, IG1473 have boughtG59 fiveG4002 yokeG2201 ofG3004 oxenG1016, andG2532 IG1473 goG4198 toG3004 prove themG846: IG1473 pray thee have meG3004 excusedG3868.

20AndG2532 anotherG2087 saidG3004, IG2532 have marriedG1060 a wifeG1135, andG2532 thereforeG1223 IG2532 cannotG3756 comeG2064.

21AndG2532 theG3588 servantG1401 cameG1831, andG2532 toldG3004 hisG846 lordG2962 theseG3778 thingsG3778. ThenG2532 theG3588 masterG2962 ofG2962 theG3588 houseG3617 being angryG3710 saidG3004 toG1519 hisG846 servantG1401, GoG1831 outG1831 quicklyG5030 intoG1519 theG3588 streetsG4505 andG2532 lanesG4505 ofG2962 theG3588 cityG4172, andG2532 bringG1521 inG1519 hither theG3588 poorG4434 andG2532 maimed andG2532 blindG5185 andG2532 lameG5560.

22AndG2532 theG3588 servantG1401 saidG3004, LordG2962, whatG3739 thou didst commandG3004 isG1510 doneG1096, andG2532 yetG2532 thereG1510 isG1510 roomG5117.

23AndG2532 theG3588 lordG2962 saidG3004 unto theG3588 servantG1401, GoG1831 outG1831 intoG1519 theG3588 highwaysG3598 andG2532 hedgesG5418, andG2532 constrain themG3004 toG1519 comeG1831 inG1519, thatG2443 myG1525 houseG3624 mayG2532 beG2532 filledG1072.

24ForG1063 IG1473 sayG3004 unto youG5210, thatG3754 noneG3762 ofG435 thoseG3588 menG435 whichG3748 were bidden shallG2564 tasteG1089 ofG435 myG3754 supperG1173.
