Luke 14:32
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
And if he is unable, he will send a delegation while the other king is still far off, to ask for terms of peace.
In context
30 saying, ‘This man could not finish what he started to build.’
31 Or what king on his way to war with another king will not first sit down and consider whether he can engage with ten thousand men the one coming against him with twenty thousand?
32 And if he is unable, he will send a delegation while the other king is still far off, to ask for terms of peace.
33 In the same way, any one of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be My disciple.
34 Salt is good, but if the salt loses its savor, with what will it be seasoned?
