Luke 14:12-14

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹² He said also to the one who had invited him, “When you give a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers and sisters or your relatives or rich neighbors, in case they may invite you in return, and you would be repaid. ¹³ But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind.^{(A) 14} And you will be blessed because they cannot repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”
