28 "What man among you, if he wishes to build a tower, does not first sit down and calculate the cost, to see whether he has money enough to complete it?

30 and say, 'This fellow started to erect a building but could not complete it!'

32 And if he cannot, while the other is still far away, he sends envoys and asks for terms of peace.
