The Son of man has come eating and drinking, and you say, Behold a glutton and a wine drinker! a friend of publicans and sinners!

And he said to them, Which of you shall have a friend, and go to him at midnight, and say, Friend, lend me three loaves,

for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him;

I tell you if he will not arise and give him on account of being his friend, yet, on account of his importunity, he will arise and give him as many as he needs.

But when you are invited, go and sit down in the last place, that when he who invited you comes, he may say to you, Friend, go up higher; then you shall have honor in the presence of those that recline with you;
