Lukas 14:31-33

Orthodox Jewish Bible

³¹ Or what melech, going out to make milchamah (war) against another melech, will not first sit down and consider if he is able with aseret alafim (ten thousand) to meet the one with esrim elef (twenty thousand) coming against him?

³² Or else, while the other is noch (yet) far away, he sends an embassy delegation and seeks terms for shalom.

³³ So, then, none of you can become my talmid if you do not renounce all your [idolatrous] holdings.
