Luke 14

14:17  and he sent forth his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for [all] things are now ready¹.

14:18  And they all with one [consent] began to make excuse¹. The first said unto him, I have bought a field, and I must needs go out and see it; I pray thee have me excused.

14:21  And the servant came, and told his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor and maimed and blind and lame¹.

14:23  And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and constrain [them] to come in¹, that my house may be filled².

14:25  Now there went with him great multitudes¹: and he turned, and said unto them,

14:26  If any man cometh unto me, and hateth not his own father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters¹, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple².

14:27  Whosoever doth not bear his own cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple¹.

14:28  For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doth not first sit down and count the cost, whether he have [wherewith] to complete it¹?

14:31  Or what king, as he goeth to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and take counsel¹ whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand?

14:33  So therefore whosoever he be of you that renounceth not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple¹.

14:34  Salt therefore is good: but if even the salt have lost its savor¹, wherewith shall it be seasoned?

14:35  It is fit neither for the land nor for the dunghill: [men] cast it out¹. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear².
