JPS_ASV_Byz(i)
8 When thou art bidden of any man to a marriage feast, sit not down in the chief seat, lest haply a more honorable man than thou be bidden of him,
9 and he that bade thee and him shall come and say to thee, Give this man place, and then thou shalt begin with shame to take the lowest place.
10 But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest place, that when he that hath bidden thee cometh, he may say to thee, Friend, go up higher; then shalt thou have glory in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee.
11 For every one that exalteth himself shall be humbled, and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
