ગુજરાતીમાથ્થી ૧૦:૩૭
મારા કરતાં જે પોતાની મા અથવા પોતાના પિતા પર વધારે પ્રેમ કરે છે તે મારે યોગ્ય નથી; અને દીકરા કે દીકરી પર જે મારા કરતાં વધારે પ્રેમ કરે છે, તે પણ મારે યોગ્ય નથી.
हिन्दीमत्ती १०:३७
“जो माता या पिता को मुझसे अधिक प्रिय जानता है, वह मेरे योग्य नहीं और जो बेटा या बेटी को मुझसे अधिक प्रिय जानता है, वह मेरे योग्य नहीं। (लूका 14:26)

In context

35For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

36A man’s foes will be those of his own household.

37He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me isn’t worthy of me.

38He who doesn’t take his cross and follow after me isn’t worthy of me.

39He who seeks his life will lose it; and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.
