The Holy Bible, English Standard Version

Luke 14:28-30
<< Luke 13 | Luke 14 | Luke 15 >>

28 For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it? 29 Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, 30 saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’
