32Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, hee sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace. 33So likewise, whosoeuer he be of you, that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple. 34¶ Salt is good: but if the salt haue lost his sauour, wherewith shall it be seasoned? 35It is neither fit for the land, nor yet for the dunghill: but men cast it out. He that hath eares to heare, let him heare.
