The Parable Of The Great Banquet

12 Also to his host who had invited him, he continued, saying. "When you are making a dinner-party or a supper, do not invite your friends, or your brothers, or your relatives, or your rich neighbors, lest it chance that they invite you in return, and a recompense be made by you. 13  "But when you make a reception, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind. 14 "Then you will be blessed, because they have no means to repay you, but you shall be paid in the Resurrection of the Just."
