Luke 14:28 in Context — Luke 14
26 Se alguém vier a mim, e não odiar a seu pai, e mãe, e mulher, e filhos, e irmãos, e irmãs, e ainda também sua própria vida, não pode ser meu discípulo.
27 E qualquer que não levar sua cruz, e vier após mim, não pode ser meu discípulo.
28 Porque qual de vós, querendo edificar uma torre, não se senta primeiro para fazer as contas dos gastos, [para ver] se tem o [suficiente] para a completar?
29 Para que não aconteça que, depois de ter posto seu fundamento, e não podendo a completar, comecem a escarnecer dele todos os que [o] virem,
30 Dizendo: Este homem começou a construir, e não pôde terminar.
