42:014:019 And another said, I have bought five yoke
of oxen, and I go to
prove
them: I pray thee have me excused.
42:014:020 And another said, I have married a wife,
and therefore I
cannot
come.
42:014:021 So that servant came, and shewed 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 the maimed, and the halt, and
the
blind.
42:014:022 And the servant said, Lord, it is done
as thou hast commanded,
and
yet there is room.
42:014:023 And the lord said unto the servant, Go
out into the highways
and
hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may
be
filled.
42:014:024 For I say unto you, That none of those
men which were bidden
shall
taste of my supper.
42:014:025 And there went great multitudes with him:
and he turned, and
said
unto them,
42:014:026 If any man come to me, and hate not his
father, and mother,
and
wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea,
and
his
own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
42:014:027 And whosoever doth not bear his cross,
and come after me,
cannot
be my disciple.
42:014:028 For which of you, intending to build a
tower, sitteth not down
first,
and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to
finish
it?
42:014:029 Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation,
and is not able
to
finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him,
42:014:030 Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
42:014:031 Or what king, going to make war against
another king, sitteth
not
down first, and consulteth whether he be able with
ten
thousand
to meet him that cometh against him with twenty
thousand?
42:014:032 Or else, while the other is yet a great
way off, he sendeth an
ambassage,
and desireth conditions of peace.
42:014:033 So likewise, whosoever he be of you that
forsaketh not all
that
he hath, he cannot be my disciple.
42:014:034 Salt is good: but if the salt have
lost his savour, wherewith
shall
it be seasoned?
42:014:035 It is neither fit for the land, nor yet
for the dunghill; but
men
cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him
hear.
42:015:001 Then drew near unto him all the publicans
and sinners for to
hear
him.
42:015:002 And the Pharisees and scribes murmured,
saying, This man
receiveth
sinners, and eateth with them.
42:015:003 And he spake this parable unto them, saying,
