Luke 14:29 in the King James Version
Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him,
Context
28 For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doesn’t first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?
29 Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation and isn’t able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,
30 saying, ‘This man began to build and wasn’t able to finish.’
