Then He said to the host who invited Him,
“When you hold a lunch or a dinner, do
not invite your friends or your brothers or
your relatives or your wealthy neighbors,
in case they may invite you back and you
have repayment. Rather, when you hold a
banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the
lame, the blind; blessed indeed will you
be because of their inability to repay you.
For you will be repaid at the resurrection
of the righteous”.
Luke 14:12-14, The Holy Bible
You shall not curse the

deaf, or put a stumbling
block in front of the
blind, but you shall fear
your God. I am the
