Moreover he went on to say, unto him also who had invited him, - Whensoever thou mayest be making a dinner or a supper, do not call thy friends, or thy brothers, or thy kinsfolk, or rich neighbours, - lest once, they also, invite thee in return, and it become a recompense unto thee.

But, he, said unto him - A certain man, was making a great supper, and invited many;

and he sent out his servant, at the hour of the supper, to say unto the invited - Be coming! because, even now, is it, ready.

For, I say unto you - Not one of those men who had been invited, shall taste of my supper.

But coming, to himself, he said - How many hired servants of my father, have bread enough and to spare, whereas, I, with famine, here, am perishing!

So they made for him a supper, there; and, Martha, was ministering, but, Lazarus, was one of them who were reclining with him.

And, supper, being in progress, the adversary, having already thrust into the heart of Judas son of Simon Iscariot, that he should deliver him up, -

rouseth himself out of the supper, and layeth aside his garments, and taking a linen cloth, girded himself.

but, one of the soldiers, with a spear, pierced, his side, and there came out, straightway, blood and water.

Peter, turning about, beholdeth the disciple whom Jesus loved, following, - who also reclined during the supper upon his breast, and said - Lord, who is it that is delivering thee up?

But, a certain man, Ananias by name, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,

He, at least, who his own Son did not spare, but in behalf of us all delivered him up, how shall he not also, with him, all things upon us in favour bestow?

For, if, God, hath not spared, the natural branches, neither, thee, will he spare!

If, however, thou shouldst even marry, thou hast not sinned; and, if one who is virgin should marry, that one hath not sinned; - but, tribulation of the flesh, shall, such, have: - howbeit, I, spare you.

When, therefore, ye come together into one place, it is not to eat, a supper unto the Lord;

For, each one, taketh beforehand, his own supper, in your eating, and, one, indeed, is hungry, whereas, another, is drinking to excess.

In the same manner, the cup also, after they had taken supper, saying - This cup, is, the new covenant in my blood, this, do ye, as often soever as ye may be drinking it, in remembrance of me.

But, I, call upon God, as a witness, against my own soul, - that, to spare you, not yet, have I come unto Corinth:

For, whether we have been beside ourselves, it hath been for God, or, whether we are sober-minded, it is for you.

I have said beforehand, and do say beforehand, - as present the second time, although now absent, unto them who before sinned, and unto all the rest, - that, if I come again, I will not spare.

Hence, then, let us not be sleeping, as the rest, but let us watch and be sober: -

But, we, being of the day, let us be sober, putting on a breastplate of faith and love, and, for helmet, the hope of salvation.

In the same way, that, the women, in seemly attire, with modesty and sober-mindedness, be adorning themselves, - not with plaitings and ornamentation of gold, or with pearls, or with costly apparel, -

It is needful, then, for, the overseer, to be irreproachable, a husband, of one wife, sober, of sound mind, orderly, hospitable, apt in teaching,

Wives, in the same way, - dignified, not given to intrigue, sober, faithful in all things.

But, thou, - be sober in all things, suffer hardship, do, the work, of an evangelist, thy ministry, completely fulfill;

But hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober-minded, just, kind, possessing self-control,

That, aged men, be, sober, grave, sober-minded, healthy in their faith, love, endurance;

The younger men, in the same way, exhort thou to be sober-minded:

Wherefore, girding up the loins of your mind, keeping sober, perseveringly direct your hope unto the favour, being borne along to you, in the revealing of Jesus Christ:

But, the end of all things, hath drawn near: - be of sound mind, therefore, and be sober for prayers;

Be sober! be watchful! Your slanderous adversary, as a roaring lion, is walking about - seeking to devour:

And he saith unto me - Write! Happy, they who, unto the marriage supper of the Lamb, have been bidden! And he saith unto me - These words, are, true words of God.

And I saw one messenger, standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice, saying, unto all the birds that fly in mid-heaven, - Hither! be gathered together unto the great supper of God, -
