Lukas 14
Orthodox Jewish Bible
14 And it came to pass when he went into a bais of a certain one of the Rashei HaPerushim on Shabbos for betziat halechem, and they were watching him closely,
2 And there in front of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was a certain ish suffering from dropsy,
3 And in reply, Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach spoke to the Baalei Torah and Perushim, saying, Is it mutar (permissible) on Shabbos to give refuah or not?
4 But they kept silent. And having taken hold of him, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach granted him refuah and sent him away.
5 And to them Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, Who of you having a ben or an ox fall into a well and will not ofen ort (immediately) pull him out on Shabbos?
6 And they were not able to make a counter argument keneged (against) this.
7 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach began speaking a mashal to the seudah (banquet supper) invitees, when he noticed how they had been picking out the rashei hamoshavot (chief seats) at the tish, saying to them,
8 When you are invited by someone to a Chasunoh (wedding), you should not recline at tish in the rashei hamoshavot (chief seats), lest a more distinguished person than you may have been invited by him,
9 And he who invited you both shall come and say to you, Give place to this one, and then in bushah (shame) you proceed to occupy the seat of humiliation, the low seat.
10 But when you are invited, go and recline at tish in the moshav hashafel (low seat), so that when the one who has invited you comes, he may say to you, Chaver, move up to a higher place; then you will have kavod in the sight of all with you at the tish.
11 For everyone exalting himself shall be humbled, and the one humbling himself shall be exalted.
12 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was speaking also to the one who invited him, When you prepare a seudah or a Melave Malkah, do not invite your chaverim or your achim or your krovey mishpochot (relatives) or your shchenim haashirim, lest they also should invite you in return and repayment come to you.
13 But when you prepare a seudah (feast), invite the aniyim (the poor), the baalei hamum (the maimed), the pisechim (the lame), the ivrim (blind),
14 And Birkat Shomayim (the Blessing of Heaven) will befall you, because they do not have the means to repay you; for you will be repaid in the Yom Tekumat HaTzadikkim (Day of the Resurrection of the Righteous, Rev 20:5).
15 And when a certain one of those reclining at tish with Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach heard these things, he said to him, Ashrey is he who will eat lechem in the Malchut Hashem! [YESHAYAH 25:6]
16 But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to him, A certain man was preparing a big seudah, and he invited many;
17 And at the dinner hour, he sent his eved to say to the seudah invitees, Come, because everything is ready now.
18 But each began to come up with a teretz (excuse). The rishon (first) said to him, I bought a sadeh (field) and I am compelled to go out and look at it. Please be mekabel (receive, accept) my teretz.
19 And another said, I have bought chamesh pair of oxen, and I am going to try them out. Please be mekabel my teretz (excuse).
20 And another said, I took a wife and therefore I am not able to come.
21 And the eved returned and reported this to his Adon. Then the Baal Bayit became angry and said to his eved, Go out quickly into the rekhovot (streets) and lanes of the shtetl and bring in here the aniyim (the poor) and the baalei hamum (the maimed) and the ivrim (blind) and the pisechim (the lame).
22 And the eved said, Adoni, what you commanded has been done, and still there is room.
23 And the Adon said to the eved, Go out to the rekhovot and along the boundaries and urge them to come in, in order that My Beis may be filled.
24 For I say to you that no one of those Bnei Adam who were invited will taste my seudah.
25 And large multitudes were accompanying him, and Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach turned and said to them,
26 If someone comes to me, and does not hate [hyperbolically, in comparison to Moshiach] his own Abba and Em (mother) and isha and yeladim and achim and achayot and in addition also his own life [in the Olam Hazeh], he is not able to be my [Moshiach’s] talmid.
27 Whoever does not carry his own etz [of self denial] and come after me [Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach] is not able to be my [Moshiach’s] talmid.
28 For who among you, wanting to build a migdal (tower), will not first sit down and rechen (calculate) the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?
29 Otherwise, having laid his yesod (foundation) and not being able to finish it, everyone seeing it may begin to make leitzonus (fun, mockery) of him,
30 Saying, This man began to build and was not able to finish.
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.
34 Therefore, melach (salt) is tov; but if even melach should become tasteless, with what will it be seasoned?
35 It is useless either for the land or for the dung hill; they throw it away. The one who has ears to hear, shema!

Jezus op bezoek bij een Farizeeër
14 Op een keer was Jezus door een leider van de Farizeeërs uitgenodigd om bij hem thuis te komen eten. Het was op de heilige rustdag. De mensen zaten op Hem te letten. 2 En er was daar iemand die te veel vocht in zijn lichaam had en er opgezwollen uitzag. 3 Jezus zei tegen de wetgeleerden en Farizeeërs: "Mag je iemand op de heilige rustdag genezen?" 4 Maar ze zeiden niets. Toen pakte Jezus de hand van de zieke man, genas hem en liet hem gaan. 5 En Hij zei tegen hen: "Als de ezel of de os van één van jullie op de heilige rustdag in een waterput valt, wie van jullie zal hem er dan niet onmiddellijk uittrekken?" 6 Daar wisten ze niets op te antwoorden.
7 Jezus merkte dat de gasten de beste plaatsen aan tafel uitkozen, namelijk dicht bij de gastheer. Daarom vertelde Hij hun daar iets over in de vorm van een verhaal. 8 Hij zei: "Wanneer je op een bruiloft bent uitgenodigd, ga dan niet dicht bij de gastheer aan tafel zitten. Misschien komt er iemand die belangrijker is dan jij. 9 Dan zou de gastheer naar je toe komen en zeggen: 'Wil je even plaats maken voor deze man?' En je zou helemaal aan het eind van de tafel moeten gaan zitten omdat alleen daar nog plek vrij is. Dan zou je je vreselijk schamen. 10 Maar als je wordt uitgenodigd, ga dan helemaal aan het eind van de tafel zitten. Misschien zal de gastheer dan tegen je zeggen als hij binnenkomt: 'Vriend, kom wat dichter bij me zitten.' Dat zal dan een eer voor je zijn en de andere gasten zullen dat zien. 11 Iedereen die zichzelf belangrijk vindt, zal worden vernederd. Maar iemand die bescheiden is, zal worden geëerd."
12 Hij zei ook tegen de man die Hem had uitgenodigd: "Als je mensen voor een maaltijd uitnodigt, vraag dan niet je vrienden, je broers, je familieleden of je rijke buren. Want zij kunnen jou de volgende keer weer uitnodigen, en zo zou je worden beloond. 13 Maar als je mensen voor een maaltijd wil uitnodigen, nodig dan bedelaars en arme mensen uit. 14 Het zal heerlijk voor je zijn als je dat doet, want zij kunnen je er niet voor belonen. Je zal ervoor beloond worden op de dag dat de mensen die hebben geleefd zoals God het wil, uit de dood opstaan."
Het verhaal van de feestmaaltijd
15 Toen iemand van de andere mensen aan tafel dat hoorde, zei hij tegen Jezus: "Wat heerlijk als je aan tafel mag gaan in het Koninkrijk van God!" 16 Maar Jezus zei tegen hem: "Iemand ging een grote feestmaaltijd houden. Hij nodigde veel mensen uit. 17 Toen alles klaarstond, stuurde hij een dienaar naar de gasten om te zeggen: 'Kom, want de maaltijd staat klaar.' 18 Maar geen van de gasten wilde komen. De eerste man waar de dienaar kwam, zei: 'Ik heb een akker gekocht. Ik moet die nu gaan bekijken. Zeg maar tegen je heer dat het me spijt, maar dat ik niet kan komen.' 19 De volgende zei: 'Ik heb tien ossen gekocht. Ik ga nu kijken of het goede dieren zijn. Zeg maar tegen je heer dat het me spijt, maar dat ik niet kan komen.' 20 Weer een ander zei: 'Ik ben net getrouwd. Ik kan echt niet komen.'
21 De dienaar ging terug en vertelde het zijn heer. Die werd woedend en zei tegen zijn dienaar: 'Ga onmiddellijk naar de straten en stegen van de stad. Haal daar de bedelaars, de verlamden en de blinden op en breng ze hier.' 22 Toen de dienaar terugkwam, zei hij: 'Heer, ik heb gedaan wat u mij heeft bevolen. Maar er is nog steeds plaats aan tafel.' 23 De heer zei tegen hem: 'Ga dan naar de wegen en de paden buiten de stad. Zeg tegen de mensen daar dat ze naar mijn feest móeten komen. Want mijn huis moet vol worden. 24 Want ik zeg je: de gasten die het eerst waren uitgenodigd, zullen niets van mijn maaltijd krijgen.' "
Jezus volgen
25 Grote groepen mensen reisden met Jezus mee. Jezus draaide Zich naar hen om en zei: 26 "Als je bij Mij komt, moet je meer van Mij houden dan van je vader en moeder, vrouw en kinderen, broers en zussen. Je moet zelfs meer van Mij houden dan van je eigen leven. Anders kun je niet mijn leerling zijn. 27 Als je niet het kruis draagt[a] en Mij volgt, kun je geen leerling van Mij zijn.
28 Als je een toren wil gaan bouwen, ga je toch eerst rustig uitrekenen wat het zal gaan kosten? Je moet toch weten of je het werk zal kunnen afmaken? 29 Want stel dat je het werk niet kan afmaken nadat je het fundament hebt gelegd. Dan zal iedereen je uitlachen! 30 Ze zullen zeggen: 'Ha, die man begon te bouwen, maar hij kon het niet afmaken!'
31 En als een koning tegen een andere koning ten strijde trekt, zal hij eerst rustig bedenken of hij het met een leger van 10.000 man zal kunnen winnen van iemand die een leger van 20.000 man heeft. 32 En als hij denkt dat hij niet zal kunnen winnen, stuurt hij boodschappers naar de andere koning als die nog ver weg is met zijn leger. En hij vraagt hem op welke voorwaarden hij vrede met hem kan sluiten. 33 Zo kunnen jullie dus alleen maar mijn leerling zijn, als jullie alles wat jullie hebben, kunnen loslaten.
34 Zout is iets goeds, maar als zout niet meer zout is, waarmee kun je het dan nog zout maken? 35 Het is niet geschikt voor de akker en niet geschikt voor de mestkuil.[b] Het wordt gewoon weggegooid. Als je oren hebt, moet je ook goed luisteren!"

- Lukas 14:27 De mensen die naar Jezus luisterden, kenden de Romeinse doodstraf door kruisiging. Iemand die gekruisigd ging worden, moest zelf zijn kruis dragen. Zij begrepen dus heel goed dat 'het kruis dragen' verband hield met 'dood'. Het gaat hier over het opgeven van je eigen leven, om verder voor Jezus te leven.

Luke 14
King James Version
14 And it came to pass, as he went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath day, that they watched him.
2 And, behold, there was a certain man before him which had the dropsy.
3 And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day?
4 And they held their peace. And he took him, and healed him, and let him go;
5 And answered them, saying, Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fallen into a pit, and will not straightway pull him out on the sabbath day?
6 And they could not answer him again to these things.
7 And he put forth a parable to those which were bidden, when he marked how they chose out the chief rooms; saying unto them.
8 When thou art bidden of any man to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him;
9 And he that bade thee and him come and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room.
10 But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee.
11 For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
12 Then said he also to him that bade him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor thy rich neighbours; lest they also bid thee again, and a recompence be made thee.
13 But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind:
14 And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.
15 And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.
16 Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many:
17 And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.
18 And they all with one consent began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused.
19 And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.
20 And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.
21 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.
22 And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room.
23 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.
24 For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.
25 And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned, and said unto them,
26 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.
27 And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
28 For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?
29 Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him,
30 Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
31 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?
32 Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace.
33 So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.
34 Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned?
35 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.

Jesus at a Pharisee’s House(A)
14 One Sabbath, when Jesus went to eat in the house of a prominent Pharisee,(B) he was being carefully watched.(C) 2 There in front of him was a man suffering from abnormal swelling of his body. 3 Jesus asked the Pharisees and experts in the law,(D) “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?”(E) 4 But they remained silent. So taking hold of the man, he healed him and sent him on his way.
5 Then he asked them, “If one of you has a child[a] or an ox that falls into a well on the Sabbath day, will you not immediately pull it out?”(F) 6 And they had nothing to say.
7 When he noticed how the guests picked the places of honor at the table,(G) he told them this parable: 8 “When someone invites you to a wedding feast, do not take the place of honor, for a person more distinguished than you may have been invited. 9 If so, the host who invited both of you will come and say to you, ‘Give this person your seat.’ Then, humiliated, you will have to take the least important place. 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.”(H)
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,(I) 14 and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”(J)
The Parable of the Great Banquet(K)
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(L) in the kingdom of God.”(M)
16 Jesus replied: “A certain man was preparing a great banquet and invited many guests. 17 At the time of the banquet he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, ‘Come, for everything is now ready.’
18 “But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said, ‘I have just bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please excuse me.’
19 “Another said, ‘I have just bought five yoke of oxen, and I’m on my way to try them out. Please excuse me.’
20 “Still another said, ‘I just got married, so I can’t come.’
21 “The servant came back and reported this to his master. Then the owner of the house became angry and ordered his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the town and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind and the lame.’(N)
22 “‘Sir,’ the servant said, ‘what you ordered has been done, but there is still room.’
23 “Then the master told his servant, ‘Go out to the roads and country lanes and compel them to come in, so that my house will be full. 24 I tell you, not one of those who were invited will get a taste of my banquet.’”(O)
The Cost of Being a Disciple
25 Large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he said: 26 “If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple.(P) 27 And whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.(Q)
28 “Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it? 29 For if you lay the foundation and are not able to finish it, everyone who sees it will ridicule you, 30 saying, ‘This person began to build and wasn’t able to finish.’
31 “Or suppose a king is about to go to war against another king. Won’t he first sit down and consider whether he is able with ten thousand men to oppose the one coming against him with twenty thousand? 32 If he is not able, he will send a delegation while the other is still a long way off and will ask for terms of peace. 33 In the same way, those of you who do not give up everything you have cannot be my disciples.(R)
34 “Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again?(S) 35 It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile; it is thrown out.(T)
“Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.”(U)
