New Testament

Luke-Acts 14:10-15 The Books of the Bible NT (BOOKS)

10. But when you are invited, take the lowest place, so that when your host comes, he will say to you, 'Friend, move up to a better place.' Then you will be honored in the presence of all the other guests.

11. For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted."

12. Then Jesus said to his host, "When you give a luncheon or dinner, do not invite your friends, your brothers or sisters, your relatives, or your rich neighbors; if you do, they may invite you back and so you will be repaid.

13. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind,

14. and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous."

15. When one of those at the table with him heard this, he said to Jesus, "Blessed is the one who will eat at the feast in the kingdom of God."
