Luke 14:29

English Standard Version 2016

Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him,

See the chapter Copy

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?

saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’

and saying, “You who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross.”

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.
