Luke 14:12 in Context — Luke 14
10 Mas quando fores convidado, vai, e senta-te no último lugar; para que quando vier o que te convidou, te diga: Amigo, sobe para [este assento] melhor. Então terás honra diante dos que estiverem sentados contigo [à mesa] .
11 Porque qualquer que exaltar a si mesmo, e aquele que humilhar a si mesmo, será exaltado.
12 E dizia também ao que tinha lhe convidado: Quando fizeres um jantar, ou uma ceia, não chames a teus amigos, nem a teus irmãos, nem a teus parentes, nem a [teus] vizinhos ricos, para que eles também em algum tempo não te convidem de volta, e tu sejas recompensado.
13 Mas quando fizeres convite, chama aos pobres, aleijados, mancos [e] cegos.
14 E serás bem-aventurado, porque não eles não têm como te recompensar; pois tu serás recompensado na ressurreição dos justos.
