1Kai geneta en te erchara auton eis oikon tinou toiu archontoiu toiu Farisaioiu sabbate esthiara arton kai autois ale paratērorōntois auton.One Sabbath, Jesus went to eat in the home of a leading Pharisee, and those in attendance were watching Him closely. 2kai idou anthrōpos tinos ate hudrōpikos emprosthen autou.Right there before Him was a man with dropsy. 3kai apokrinirantos tos Iēsus legata pros toin nomikoin kai Farisaioin legarōntos; ⸀Exestinatō te sabbate ⸂therapeuara ē ou?⸃So Jesus asked the experts in the law and the Pharisees, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?” 4tois de hēsuchazala. kai epilaberantos ieta auton kai apoluata.But they remained silent. Then Jesus took hold of the man, healed him, and sent him on his way. 5⸀kai pros autoin legata; Tinou vu huios ē bouos eis freatem ⸀pipteti, kai ouk eutheōs anaspati auton ⸀en hēmera teu sabbateu?And He asked them, “Which of you whose son or ox falls into a pit on the Sabbath day will not immediately pull him out?” 6kai ouk ischuala ⸀antapokrinira pros houteim.And they were unable to answer these questions.
7Legate de pros toin kalorēntoin parabolan, epecharōntos pōs tain prōtoklisiain eklegole, legarōntos pros autoin;When Jesus noticed how the guests chose the places of honor, He told them a parable: 8Hotan kaliseia hupo tinou eis gamoin, mē katakliniseia eis tan prōtoklisian, mēpote entimoteros su ateiō kalorēntos hupo autou“When you are invited to a wedding banquet, do not sit in the place of honor, in case someone more distinguished than you has been invited. 9kai ercharantos tos sin kai auton kalarantos legati si; Dōasar houto topon, kai tote archesi meta aischunau ton eschaton topon katecharō.Then the host who invited both of you will come and tell you, ‘Give this man your seat.’ And in humiliation, you will have to take the last place. 10alla hotan kaliseia poreuirantos anapiptasar eis ton eschaton topon, hina hotan erchateia tos kalarēntos sin ⸀legati si; Filor, prosanabainasar anōterem; tote eti si doxas enōpion ⸀pantoiu toiu sunanakeiorōntoiu si.But when you are invited, go and sit in the last place, so that your host will come and tell you, ‘Friend, move up to a better place.’ Then you will be honored in front of everyone at the table with you. 11hoti pantos tos hupsarōntos heauton tapeiniti kai tos tapeinarōntos heauton hupsiti.For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.” 12Legate de kai to kalarēnto auton; Hotan poiaseiō aristem ē deipnem, mē fōnasōr toin filoin su mēde toin adelfoin su mēde toin sungenoin su mēde geitonoin plousioin, mēpote kai autois ⸂antikalaleia sin⸃ kai geneteia ⸂antapodomem si.⸃Then Jesus said to the man who had invited Him, “When you host a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or brothers or relatives or rich neighbors. Otherwise, they may invite you in return, and you will be repaid. 13alla hotan ⸂dochan poiaseiō,⸃ kalasōr ptōchoin, anapēroin, chōloin, tufloin;But when you host a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind, 14kai makarios esi, hoti ouk echalō antapodōara si, antapodōiti gar si en ta anastasia toiu dikaioiu.and you will be blessed. Since they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”
15Akouarantos de tinos toiu sunanakeiorōntoiu houteim legata auto; Makarios ⸀hotinos esthieti ⸀arton en ta basileia tou theou.When one of those reclining with Him heard this, he said to Jesus, “Blessed is everyone who will eat at the feast in the kingdom of God.” 16tos de legata auto; Anthrōpos tinos ⸀poiate deipnem megem, kai kalata polloin,But Jesus replied, “A certain man prepared a great banquet and invited many guests. 17kai apostelata ton doulon autou ta hōra teu deipneu legara toi kalorēntoi; Erchovōr, hoti ēdē hetoimeim ⸀atō.When it was time for the banquet, he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, ‘Come, for everything is now ready.’ 18kai archela apo henau ⸂pantois paraitorō.⸃ tos prōtos legata auto; Agron agorazama kai echamō anankan ⸀exercharantos horara auton; erōtamō sin, echasōr min paraitorēnton.But one after another they all began to make excuses. The first one said, ‘I have bought a field, and I need to go see it. Please excuse me.’ 19kai heteros legata; Zeugeim bouoiu agorazama pente kai poreuomō dokimazara auteim; erōtamō sin, echasōr min paraitorēnton.Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out. Please excuse me.’ 20kai heteros legata; Gunaikan gamama kai dia houtem ouk dunomō erchara.Still another said, ‘I have married a wife, so I cannot come.’ 21kai paragenerantos tos ⸀doulos apangelata to kurio autou houteim. tote orgizirantos tos oikodespotos legata to doulo autou; Exerchasar tacheōs eis tain plateiain kai rumain tau polau, kai toin ptōchoin kai anapēroin kai ⸂tufloin kai chōloin⸃ eisagasar hōde.The servant returned and reported all this to his master. Then the owner of the house became angry and said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the city, and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind, and the lame.’ 22kai legata tos doulos; Kurior, genatē ⸀hem epitassasa, kai ēti topos atō.‘Sir,’ the servant replied, ‘what you ordered has been done, and there is still room.’ 23kai legata tos kurios pros ton doulon; Exerchasar eis tain hodain kai fragmoin kai anankazasar eiserchara, hina gemiziteia ⸂mu tos oikos;⸃So the master told his servant, ‘Go out to the highways and hedges and compel them to come in, so that my house will be full. 24legamō gar vi hoti oudenos toiu androiu ekeinoiu toiu kalorēntoiu geueti mu teu ⸀deipneu.For I tell you, not one of those men who were invited will taste my banquet.’”
25Sumporeuole de auto ochlois pollois, kai strefirantos legata pros autoin;Now large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and He turned and said to them, 26Ei tinos erchotō pros min kai ouk misatō ton patron ⸀heautou kai tan mētēran kai tan gunaikan kai teim tekneim kai toin adelfoin kai tain adelfain, ēti ⸀tē kai tan ⸂psuchan heautou,⸃ ouk dunotō ⸂arō mu mathētos.⸃“If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters — yes, even his own life — he cannot be My disciple. 27⸀hotinos ouk bastazatō ton stauron ⸀heautou kai erchotō opisō mu, ouk dunotō arō mu mathētos.And whoever does not carry his cross and follow Me cannot be My disciple. 28tinos gar ek ⸀vu thelarōntos purgon oikodomara ouchi prōtem kathizarantos psēfizatō tan dapanan, ei ⸀echatō eis apartismon?Which of you, wishing to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost to see if he has the resources to complete it? 29hina mēpote titharantou autou themelion kai mē ischuarōntou ektelara pantois tois theōrarōntois archeleia ⸂auto empaizarō⸃Otherwise, if he lays the foundation and is unable to finish the work, everyone who sees it will ridicule him, 30legarōntois hoti Houtos tos anthrōpos archeta oikodomarō kai ouk ischuata ektelara.saying, ‘This man could not finish what he started to build.’ 31ē tinos basilevos poreuorōntos ⸂hetero basilevo sumballara⸃ eis polemon ouchi kathizarantos prōtem ⸀bouleueti ei dunatos atō en deka chiliadai ⸀hupantara to meta eikosi chiliadaiu erchorōnto epi auton?Or what king on his way to war with another king will not first sit down and consider whether he can engage with ten thousand men the one coming against him with twenty thousand? 32ei de mēge, ēti ⸂autou porrō⸃ arōntou presbeian apostelarantos erōtatō ⸀teim pros eirēnan.And if he is unable, he will send a delegation while the other king is still far off, to ask for terms of peace. 33houtōs oun pantos ek vu hos ouk apotassotō pantei tei heautou huparcharōntei ouk dunotō ⸂arō mu⸃ mathētos.In the same way, any one of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be My disciple.
