Luke 14:8-10

Christian Standard Bible

⁸ “When you are invited by someone to a wedding banquet, don’t sit in the place of honor, because a more distinguished person^(A) than you may have been invited by your host. ⁹ The one who invited both of you may come and say to you, ‘Give your place to this man,’ and then in humiliation, you will proceed to take the lowest place.

¹⁰ “But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when the one who invited you comes, he will say to you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ You will then be honored^(B) in the presence of all the other guests.^(C)
