Proverbs 25:6-8
Expanded Bible
6 Don’t ·brag [honor yourself] to the king
and ·act as if you are great [L don’t stand in the place of important people].
7 It is better for him to ·give you a higher position [L say to you, “Come up here”]
than to bring you down in front of the prince [Luke 14:7–11].
Because of something you have seen,
8 do not quickly take someone to court.
What will you do later
when your neighbor ·proves you wrong [L humiliates/shames you]?
