5For let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7But emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men, and in habit found as a man. 8He humbled himself, becoming obedient unto death, even to the death of the cross. 9For which cause God also hath exalted him, and hath given him a name which is above all names: 10That in the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those that are in heaven, on earth, and under the earth: 11And that every tongue should confess that the Lord Jesus Christ is in the glory of God the Father.

26With thee is my praise in a great church: I will pay my vows in the sight of them that fear him.

27The poor shall eat and shall be filled: and they shall praise the Lord that seek him: their hearts shall live for ever and ever.

28All the ends of the earth shall remember, and shall be converted to the Lord: And all the kindreds of the Gentiles shall adore in his sight.

29For the kingdom is the Lord's; and he shall have dominion over the nations.

30All the fat ones of the earth have eaten and have adored: all they that go down to the earth shall fall before him.

31And to him my soul shall live: and my seed shall serve him.

32There shall be declared to the Lord a generation to come: and the heavens shall shew forth his justice to a people that shall be born, which the Lord hath made.

15When one of them that sat at table with him, had heard these things, he said to him: Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God. 16But he said to him: A certain man made a great supper, and invited many. 17And he sent his servant at the hour of supper to say to them that were invited, that they should come, for now all things are ready. 18And they began all at once to make excuse. The first said to him: I have bought a farm, and I must needs go out and see it: I pray thee, hold me excused. 19And another said: I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to try them: I pray thee, hold me excused. 20And another said: I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come. 21And the servant returning, told these things to his lord. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant: Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the feeble, and the blind, and the lame. 22And the servant said: Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room. 23And the Lord said to the servant: Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. 24But I say unto you, that none of those men that were invited, shall taste of my supper.
