Jesus said also to the one who had invited him, “When you give a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, in case they may invite you in return, and you would be repaid.

And you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.â€
