Chapter 14
17
and at the dinner hour he sent his slave to tell those who had been invited, ‘Come, because everything is ready now.’
18
And
yet
they all alike began to make excuses. The first one said to him, ‘I purchased a field and I need to go out to look at it; please consider me excused.’
19
And another one said, ‘I bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out; please consider me excused.’
20
And another one said, ‘I took a woman as my wife, and for that reason I cannot come.’
21
And the slave came
back
and reported this to his master. Then the head of the household became angry and said to his slave, ‘Go out at once into the streets and lanes of the city and bring in here those who are poor, those with disabilities, those who are blind, and those who are limping.’
22
And
later
the slave said, ‘Master, what you commanded has been done, and still there is room.’
23
And the master said to the slave, ‘Go out into the roads and the hedges and press upon
them
to come in, so that my house will be filled.
24
For I tell you, none of those men who were invited shall taste my dinner.’?'
25
Now large crowds were going along with Him, and He turned and said to them,
26
If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple.
King James Version
Chapter 14
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.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 14
17
At the time of the banquet, he sent his servant to tell those who were invited, ‘Come, because everything is now ready.’
18
"But without exception they all began to make excuses. The first one said to him, ‘I have bought a field, and I must go out and see it. I ask you to excuse me.’
19
"Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I’m going to try them out. I ask you to excuse me.’
20
"And another said, ‘I just got married, and therefore I’m unable to come.’
21
"So the servant came back and reported these things to his master. Then in anger, the master of the house told his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the city, and bring in here the poor, maimed, blind, and lame.’
22
"‘Master,’ the servant said, ‘what you ordered has been done, and there’s still room.’
23
"Then the master told the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges and make them come in, so that my house may be filled.
24
For I tell you, not one of those people who were invited will enjoy my banquet.’"
25
Now great crowds were traveling with him. So he turned and said to them:
26
"If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, and even his own life—he cannot be my disciple.
New Living Translation
Chapter 14
17
When the banquet was ready, he sent his servant to tell the guests, ‘Come, the banquet is ready.’
18
But they all began making excuses. One said, ‘I have just bought a field and must inspect it. Please excuse me.’
19
Another said, ‘I have just bought five pairs of oxen, and I want to try them out. Please excuse me.’
20
Another said, ‘I just got married, so I can’t come.’
21
The servant returned and told his master what they had said. His master was furious and said, ‘Go quickly into the streets and alleys of the town and invite the poor, the crippled, the blind, and the lame.’
22
After the servant had done this, he reported, ‘There is still room for more.’
23
So his master said, ‘Go out into the country lanes and behind the hedges and urge anyone you find to come, so that the house will be full.
24
For none of those I first invited will get even the smallest taste of my banquet.’'
25
A large crowd was following Jesus. He turned around and said to them,
26
If you want to be my disciple, you must, by comparison, hate everyone else — your father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters — yes, even your own life. Otherwise, you cannot be my disciple.
