Luke 14:7-9

New Century Version

Don’t Make Yourself Important

⁷ When Jesus noticed that some of the guests were choosing the best places to sit, he told this story: ⁸ “When someone invites you to a wedding feast, don’t take the most important seat, because someone more important than you may have been invited. ⁹ The host, who invited both of you, will come to you and say, ‘Give this person your seat.’ Then you will be embarrassed and will have to move to the last place.
