Luke 14:9-11

Lexham English Bible

⁹ and the one who invited you both^[a] will come and^[b] say to you, ‘Give the place to this person,’ and then with shame you will begin to take the last place. ¹⁰ But when you are invited, go and^[c] recline at the table in the last place, so that when the one who invited you comes, he will say to you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then it will be an honor to you in the presence of all those who are reclining at the table with you. ¹¹ For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”
