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.
31 Ou qual rei, indo a guerra para lutar contra outro rei, não se senta primeiro para consultar, se pode ir ao encontro com dez mil [soldados] , vindo contra ele vinte mil?
32 Se não [puder] , estando o outro ainda longe, manda [-lhe] representantes diplomáticos, e roga pela paz.
33 Assim, portanto, qualquer de vós que não renuncia a tudo, não pode ser meu discípulo.
