Luke 17:8

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

Instead, won’t he tell him, ‘Prepare my meal and dress yourself to serve me while I eat and drink; and afterward you may eat and drink’?
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
and will not rather tell him, ‘Prepare my supper, clothe yourself properly, and serve me, while I eat and drink. Afterward you shall eat and drink’?
World English Bible (WEB)
And{G235} will not{G3780} rather say{G2046}{(G5692)} unto him{G846}, Make ready{G2090}{(G5657)} wherewith{G5101} I may sup{G1172}{(G5661)}, and{G2532} gird thyself{G4024}{(G5671)}, and serve{G1247}{(G5720)} me{G3427}, till{G2193} I have eaten{G5315}{(G5632)} and{G2532} drunken{G4095}{(G5632)}; and{G2532} afterward{G3326}{G5023} thou{G4771} shalt eat{G5315}{(G5695)} and{G2532} drink{G4095}{(G5695)}?
Strong's King James
(8) Rather, won't he say to him, 'Prepare something to eat, gird yourself and serve me while I eat and drink and after this you may eat and drink?'
The F.O.G*
[8] would you say when they came in, 'Quick, sit down and eat'? No, you'd more likely say, 'Prepare my dinner, get cleaned up, and serve me first. You can eat and rest afterward.'
The F.O.G Paraphrase
but will not rather say to him, Prepare what I may sup, and having girded thyself about, minister to me, till I eat and drink, and after these things thou shalt eat and drink?
Young's Literal Translation
