Additional Translations Then Jesus said to the man who had invited Him, “When you host a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or brothers or relatives or rich neighbors. Otherwise, they may invite you in return, and you will be repaid. And also He was saying to the one having invited Him, "When you make a dinner or a supper, do not call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your relatives, nor rich neighbors, lest ever they also should invite you in return, and recompense be made to you. Then said he also to him that bade him, When you make a dinner or a supper, call not your friends, nor your brothers, neither your kinsmen, nor your rich neighbors; lest they also bid you again, and a recompense be made you. And he said to him also that had bidden him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor thy kinsmen, nor rich neighbors; lest haply they also bid thee again, and a recompense be made thee. And he said also to him that had invited him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor thy kinsfolk, nor rich neighbours, lest it may be they also should invite thee in return, and a recompense be made thee. And he said to him also that had bidden him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor thy kinsmen, nor rich neighbours; lest haply they also bid thee again, and a recompense be made thee. Then said he also to him that invited him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor thy rich neighbors; lest they also invite thee again, and a recompense be made thee. Also to His host, who had invited Him, He said, "When you give a breakfast or a dinner, do not invite your friends or brothers or relatives or rich neighbours, lest perhaps they should invite you in return and a requital be made you. He also said to the one who had invited him, "When you make a dinner or a supper, don't call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back. And 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; Jump to Previous Bade Banquet Bid Dinner Favor Friends Host Invite Invited Kinsmen Makest Neighbors Neighbours Otherwise Pay Perhaps Recompense Repayment Requital Rich SupperJump to Next Bade Banquet Bid Dinner Favor Friends Host Invite Invited Kinsmen Makest Neighbors Neighbours Otherwise Pay Perhaps Recompense Repayment Requital Rich SupperExternal Links Luke 14:12 NIVLuke 14:12 NLT Luke 14:12 ESV Luke 14:12 NASB Luke 14:12 ASV Luke 14:12 Bible Apps Luke 14:12 Biblia Paralela Luke 14:12 Chinese Bible Luke 14:12 French Bible Luke 14:12 German Bible Alphabetical: a also and back be brothers dinner do friends give had He Him his host if in invite invited Jesus luncheon may neighbors not on one or otherwise relatives repaid repayment return rich said say so that the Then they to went When who will you your NT Gospels: Luke 14:12 He also said to the one who (Luke Lu Lk) Bible Study Resources, Dictionary, Concordance and Search Tools |
