  **Show the text**

  1 Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children.

  2 Walk in love, even as Christ also loved us and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.

  3 But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints;

  4 nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not appropriate, but rather giving of thanks.

  5 Know this for sure, that no sexually immoral person, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and God.

  6 Let no one deceive you with empty words. For because of these things, the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.

  7 Therefore don’t be partakers with them.

  8 For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,

- Gospel

  Luke 14:1–11

  **Show the text**

  1 When he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, they were watching him.

  2 Behold, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him.

  3 Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”

  4 But they were silent. He took him, and healed him, and let him go.

  5 He answered them, “Which of you, if your son or an ox fell into a well, wouldn’t immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?”

  6 They couldn’t answer him regarding these things.

  7 He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them,

  8 “When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, don’t sit in the best seat, since perhaps someone more honorable than you might be invited by him,

  9 and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, ‘Make room for this person.’ Then you would begin, with shame, to take the lowest place.

  10 But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you.

  11 For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”
