    And say, “As I live forever, If I whet My glittering sword,
    And My hand takes hold on judgment,
    I will render vengeance to My enemies,
    And repay those who hate Me. I will make My arrows drunk with blood,
    And My sword shall devour flesh,

Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks conditions of peace. So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple.
