Luke 14:8-10

Living Bible

⁸ “If you are invited to a wedding feast, don’t always head for the best seat. For if someone more respected than you shows up, ⁹ the host will bring him over to where you are sitting and say, ‘Let this man sit here instead.’ And you, embarrassed, will have to take whatever seat is left at the foot of the table!

¹⁰ “Do this instead—start at the foot; and when your host sees you he will come and say, ‘Friend, we have a better place than this for you!’ Thus you will be honored in front of all the other guests.
