Luke 5:27-29

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁷ And after this, Jesus went out and looked [attentively] at a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax office; and He said to him, ^[a]Join Me as a disciple and side with My party and accompany Me.

²⁸ And he forsook everything and got up and followed Him [becoming His disciple and siding with His party].

²⁹ And Levi (Matthew) made a great banquet for Him in his own house, and there was a large company of tax collectors and others who were reclining [at the table] with them.
