Luke 14:1-6
Wycliffe Bible
14 And it was done, when he had entered into the house of a prince of Pharisees, in the sabbath, to eat bread, they espied him.
2 And lo! a man sick in the dropsy [And lo! some man sick in the dropsy] was before him.
3 And Jesus answering spake to the wise men of [the] law, and to the Pharisees, and said [saying], Whether it is leaveful to heal in the sabbath?
4 And they held peace. And Jesus took, and healed him, and let him go.
5 And he answered to them, and said, Whose ass or ox of you shall fall into a pit, and he shall not at once draw him out in the day of sabbath?[a]
6 And they might not answer to him to these things.

Luke 14:1-6
New Matthew Bible
Jesus eats with the Pharisee, heals a man with dropsy on the Sabbath, teaches to be lowly, tells of the great supper, and warns people who would follow him to first determine what it will cost them. The salt of the earth.
14 And it happened that he went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on a Sabbath day, and they were watching him. 2 And there was before him a man who had the dropsy. 3 And Jesus addressed the wise men of law and the Pharisees, asking, Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day? 4 But they held their peace. And he took the man and healed him, and let him go. 5 And he spoke to them, saying, Which of you, having a donkey or an ox fallen into a pit, would not straightaway pull him out on the Sabbath day? 6 And they could not answer him in reply to that.

1599 Geneva Bible
14 The dropsy healed on the Sabbath. 8 The chief place: at banquets. 12 The poor must be called to our feasts. 16 Of those that were bid to the great supper. 23 Some compelled to come in. 28 One about to build a tower.
1 And [a]it came to pass that when he was entered into the house of [b]one of the chief Pharisees on the Sabbath day, to eat bread, they watched him.
2 And behold, there was a certain man before him, which had the dropsy.
3 Then Jesus answering, spake unto the Lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?
4 And they held their peace. Then 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 those things.
