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, A certain man made a great supper and invited many.

And he sent his bondman at the hour of supper to say to those who were invited, Come, for already all things are ready.

for I say to you, that not one of those men who were invited shall taste of my supper.
