Luke 14:26-33 Whoever cometh with me, and doth not hate his father and his mother, and his brethren and his sisters, and his wife and his children, and himself also, a disciple he cannot be of mine.

Etheridge⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁶ Whoever cometh with me, and doth not hate his father and his mother, and his brethren and his sisters, and his wife and his children, and himself also, a disciple he cannot be of mine. ²⁷ And whoever doth not take up his cross and come after me, a disciple he cannot be of mine. ²⁸ For who of you that willeth to build a tower, and doth not first sit down and reckon the expense of it, whether he have (wherewith) to finish it? ²⁹ lest, when he shall have laid the foundation, and shall not be able to finish, all who see shall deride him, ³⁰ saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish. ³¹ Or, what king, going to war with a king his neighbour, doth not first consider, whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him who cometh against him with twenty thousand? ³² and if not, while he is distant from him, he may send legates, and pray for peace. ³³ So every one of you who doth not leave all his possession, cannot be unto me a disciple.
