12And he said also to him who did call him, `When thou mayest make a dinner or a supper, be not calling thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor thy kindred, nor rich neighbours, lest they may also call thee again, and a recompense may come to thee;
13but when thou mayest make a feast, be calling poor, maimed, lame, blind,
14and happy thou shalt be, because they have not to recompense thee, for it shall be recompensed to thee in the rising again of the righteous.`
15And one of those reclining with him, having heard these things, said to him, `Happy [is] he who shall eat bread in the reign of God;`
16and he said to him, `A certain man made a great supper, and called many,
17and he sent his servant at the hour of the supper to say to those having been called, Be coming, because now are all things ready.
18`And they began with one consent all to excuse themselves: The first said to him, A field I bought, and I have need to go forth and see it; I beg of thee, have me excused.
