Luke 14:29

Revised Version 1885

Lest haply, when he hath laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, all that behold begin to mock him,

See the chapter Copy

and saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself: if thou art the Son of God, come down from the cross.

For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doth not first sit down and count the cost, whether he have wherewith to complete it?

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

Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
