Lucas 14
Ang Biblia, 2001
Pinagaling ni Jesus ang Lalaking may Sakit
14 Isang Sabbath, nang pumasok si Jesus[a] sa bahay ng isa sa mga pinuno ng mga Fariseo upang kumain, kanilang minamatyagan siya.
2 At noon, sa kanyang harapan ay may isang lalaking namamanas.
3 Nakipag-usap si Jesus sa mga dalubhasa sa kautusan at sa mga Fariseo, na sinasabi, “Ipinahihintulot ba o hindi na magpagaling sa Sabbath?”
4 Subalit sila'y hindi umimik. At siya'y hinawakan ni Jesus,[b] pinagaling, at pinahayo.
5 At(A) sinabi niya sa kanila, “Sino sa inyo, kung ang anak[c] o bakang lalaki ay nahulog sa hukay, hindi ba agad ninyo iaahon sa araw ng Sabbath?”
6 At hindi sila nakasagot sa mga bagay na ito.
Kapakumbabaan at Pagpapatuloy ng Panauhin
7 Nang mapansin niya na pinipili ng mga panauhin ang mga upuang pandangal; siya ay nagsalaysay sa kanila ng isang talinghaga.
8 “Kapag(B) inanyayahan ka ng sinuman sa kasalan, huwag kang uupo sa upuang pandangal; baka mayroon siyang inanyayahang higit na kilalang tao kaysa iyo,
9 at ang nag-anyaya sa inyong dalawa ay lumapit at nagsabi sa iyo, ‘Ibigay mo sa taong ito ang lugar mo.’ Sa gayon, ay magsisimula kang pumunta na napapahiya sa pinakamababang lugar.
10 Sa halip, kapag inaanyayahan ka, pumunta ka at umupo sa pinakamababang lugar upang kung dumating ang nag-anyaya sa iyo, sasabihin niya sa iyo, ‘Kaibigan, pumunta ka sa mas mataas.’ Kung gayo'y magkakaroon ka ng karangalan sa harap ng lahat ng mga kasalo mong nakaupo sa hapag.
11 Sapagkat(C) ang bawat nagmamataas ay ibababa at ang nagpapakababa ay itataas.”
12 Sinabi rin naman niya sa nag-anyaya sa kanya, “Kapag naghahanda ka ng isang tanghalian o ng isang hapunan, huwag mong tawagin ang iyong mga kaibigan, o ang iyong mga kapatid, o ang iyong mga kamag-anak, o mayayamang kapitbahay, baka ikaw naman ay kanilang anyayahan at ikaw ay gantihan.
13 Subalit kung naghahanda ka ng piging, anyayahan mo ang mga dukha, ang mga pilay, ang mga lumpo, ang mga bulag,
14 at pagpapalain ka, sapagkat wala silang maigaganti sa iyo. Gagantihan ka sa muling pagkabuhay ng mga matuwid.”
Talinghaga ng Malaking Hapunan(D)
15 Nang marinig ito ng isa sa nakaupong kasalo niya sa hapag ay sinabi nito sa kanya, “Mapalad ang kakain ng tinapay sa kaharian ng Diyos.”
16 Subalit sinabi ni Jesus[d] sa kanya, “May isang naghanda ng isang malaking hapunan; at marami siyang inanyayahan.
17 At sa oras ng hapunan ay sinugo niya ang kanyang alipin upang sabihin sa mga inanyayahan, ‘Halikayo, sapagkat ang lahat ay handa na.’
18 Ngunit silang lahat ay pare-parehong nagsimulang magdahilan. Sinabi ng una sa kanya, ‘Bumili ako ng isang bukid, at kailangan kong umalis at tingnan iyon. Hinihiling ko sa iyo na pagpaumanhinan mo ako.’
19 Sinabi ng isa pa, ‘Bumili ako ng limang magkatuwang na bakang lalaki, at paroroon ako upang sila'y subukin. Hinihiling ko sa iyo na pagpaumanhinan mo ako.’
20 Sinabi ng iba, ‘Ako'y nagpakasal kaya't hindi ako makakarating.’
21 At bumalik ang alipin, at iniulat ang mga bagay na ito sa kanyang panginoon. Sa galit ng may-ari ng bahay ay sinabi sa kanyang alipin, ‘Pumunta ka agad sa mga lansangan at sa makikipot na daan ng bayan, at dalhin mo rito ang mga dukha, ang mga pilay, ang mga bulag, at ang mga lumpo.’
22 At sinabi ng alipin, ‘Panginoon, nagawa na ang ipinag-utos mo, gayunman ay maluwag pa.’
23 At sinabi ng panginoon sa alipin, ‘Lumabas ka sa mga daan at sa mga bakuran, at pilitin mo silang pumasok upang mapuno ang aking bahay.’
24 Sapagkat sinasabi ko sa inyo, na alinman sa mga taong iyon na inanyayahan ay hindi makakatikim ng aking hapunan.”
Ang Halaga ng Pagiging Isang Alagad(E)
25 Noon ay sumama sa kanya ang napakaraming tao. Siya'y humarap sa kanila at sa kanila'y sinabi,
26 “Kung(F) ang sinuman ay lumalapit sa akin at hindi napopoot sa kanyang sariling ama, ina, asawang babae, mga anak, mga kapatid na lalaki, at mga kapatid na babae, at maging sa kanyang sariling buhay ay hindi maaaring maging alagad ko.
27 Sinumang(G) hindi nagpapasan ng kanyang sariling krus at sumusunod sa akin ay hindi maaaring maging alagad ko.
28 Sapagkat sino sa inyo na nagnanais magtayo ng isang tore, ang hindi muna uupo at aalamin ang magugugol kung mayroon siyang sapat upang matapos ito?
29 Baka kung mailagay na niya ang pundasyon at hindi makayang tapusin, ang lahat ng mga makakakita ay magpapasimulang siya'y libakin,
30 na nagsasabi, ‘Nagsimula ang taong ito na magtayo, at hindi na kayang tapusin.’
31 O sinong hari, na pupunta sa pakikidigma laban sa ibang hari, ang hindi muna uupo at mag-iisip kung siya na may sampung libo ay kayang humarap sa may dalawampung libo na dumarating laban sa kanya?
32 At kung hindi, samantalang malayo pa ang isa ay magpapadala na siya ng isang sugo at hihilingin ang mga kasunduan sa kapayapaan.
33 Kaya't ang sinuman sa inyo na hindi magtakuwil sa lahat ng kanyang tinatangkilik ay hindi maaaring maging alagad ko.
Asin na Walang Halaga(H)
34 “Mabuti ang asin, subalit kung ang asin ay mawalan ng kanyang lasa, paano maibabalik ang alat nito?
35 Ito ay hindi nababagay maging sa lupa o sa tambakan man ng dumi; itinatapon nila ito. Ang may mga taingang ipandirinig ay makinig!”

New International Version
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)

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.

New King James Version
A Man with Dropsy Healed on the Sabbath
14 Now it happened, as He went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees to eat bread on the Sabbath, that they watched Him closely. 2 And behold, there was a certain man before Him who had dropsy. 3 And Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, (A)“Is it lawful to heal on the [a]Sabbath?”
4 But they kept silent. And He took him and healed him, and let him go. 5 Then He answered them, saying, (B)“Which of you, having a [b]donkey or an ox that has fallen into a pit, will not immediately pull him out on the Sabbath day?” 6 And they could not answer Him regarding these things.
Take the Lowly Place
7 So He told a parable to those who were invited, when He noted how they chose the best places, saying to them: 8 “When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in the best place, lest one more honorable than you be invited by him; 9 and he who invited you and him come and say to you, ‘Give place to this man,’ and then you begin with shame to take the lowest place. 10 (C)But when you are invited, go and sit down in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes he may say to you, ‘Friend, go up higher.’ Then you will have glory in the presence of those who sit at the table with you. 11 (D)For whoever exalts himself will be [c]humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
12 Then He also said to him who invited Him, “When you give a dinner or a supper, do not ask your friends, your brothers, your relatives, nor rich neighbors, lest they also invite you back, and you be repaid. 13 But when you give a feast, invite (E)the poor, the [d]maimed, the lame, the blind. 14 And you will be (F)blessed, because they cannot repay you; for you shall be repaid at the resurrection of the just.”
The Parable of the Great Supper(G)
15 Now when one of those who sat at the table with Him heard these things, he said to Him, (H)“Blessed is he who shall eat [e]bread in the kingdom of God!”
16 (I)Then He said to him, “A certain man gave a great supper and invited many, 17 and (J)sent his servant at supper time to say to those who were invited, ‘Come, for all things are now ready.’ 18 But they all with one accord began to make excuses. The first said to him, ‘I have bought a piece of ground, and I must go and see it. I ask you to have me excused.’ 19 And another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to test them. I ask you to have me excused.’ 20 Still another said, ‘I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.’ 21 So that servant came and reported these things to his master. 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 here the poor and the [f]maimed and the lame and the blind.’ 22 And the servant said, ‘Master, it is done as you commanded, and still there is room.’ 23 Then the master said to 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 to you (K)that none of those men who were invited shall taste my supper.’ ”
Leaving All to Follow Christ(L)
25 Now great multitudes went with Him. And He turned and said to them, 26 (M)“If anyone comes to Me (N)and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, (O)yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple. 27 And (P)whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple. 28 For (Q)which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it— 29 lest, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see 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, does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? 32 Or else, while the other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks conditions of peace. 33 So likewise, whoever of you (R)does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple.
Tasteless Salt Is Worthless(S)
34 (T)“Salt is good; but if the salt has lost its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? 35 It is neither fit for the land nor for the [g]dunghill, but men throw it out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”

Healing of a Man on the Sabbath
14 One Sabbath, (A)when he went to dine at the house of a ruler of the Pharisees, they were (B)watching him carefully. 2 And behold, there was a man before him who had dropsy. 3 And Jesus responded to (C)the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, (D)“Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath, or not?” 4 But they remained silent. Then he took him and healed him and sent him away. 5 And he said to them, (E)“Which of you, having a son[a] or an ox that has fallen into a well on a Sabbath day, will not immediately pull him out?” 6 (F)And they could not reply to these things.
The Parable of the Wedding Feast
7 Now he told a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed (G)how they chose the places of honor, saying to them, 8 “When you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in a place of honor, lest someone more distinguished than you be invited by him, 9 and he who invited you both will come and say to you, ‘Give your place to this person,’ and then you will begin with shame to take the lowest place. 10 But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, (H)so that when your host comes he may say to you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at table with you. 11 For (I)everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
The Parable of the Great Banquet
12 He said also to the man who had invited him, “When you give (J)a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or your brothers[b] or your relatives or rich neighbors, (K)lest they also invite you in return and you be repaid. 13 But when you give a feast, (L)invite (M)the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, 14 and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid (N)at (O)the resurrection of the just.”
15 When one of those who reclined at table with him heard these things, he said to him, (P)“Blessed is everyone who will (Q)eat bread in the kingdom of God!” 16 But he said to him, (R)“A man once (S)gave a great banquet and invited many. 17 And at the time for the banquet he (T)sent his servant[c] to say to those who had been invited, ‘Come, for everything is now ready.’ 18 But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said to him, ‘I have bought a field, and I must go out and see it. Please have me excused.’ 19 And another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to examine them. Please have me excused.’ 20 And another said, (U)‘I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.’ 21 So the servant came and reported these things to his master. Then the master of the house became angry and said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly to the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in (V)the poor and crippled and blind and lame.’ 22 And the servant said, ‘Sir, what you commanded has been done, and still there is room.’ 23 And the master said to the servant, ‘Go out to the highways and hedges and compel people to come in, that my house may be filled. 24 For I tell you,[d] (W)none of those men who were invited shall taste my banquet.’”
The Cost of Discipleship
25 Now great crowds accompanied him, and he turned and said to them, 26 (X)“If anyone comes to me and (Y)does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, (Z)yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. 27 (AA)Whoever does not (AB)bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple. 28 For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not (AC)first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it? 29 Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, 30 saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’ 31 Or what king, going out to encounter another king in war, will not (AD)sit down first and deliberate whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? 32 And if not, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks for terms of peace. 33 (AE)So therefore, any one of you who (AF)does not renounce all that he has cannot be my disciple.
Salt Without Taste Is Worthless
34 (AG)“Salt is good, (AH)but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? 35 It is of no use either for the soil or for the manure pile. It is thrown away. (AI)He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
