Lk 14:7:And he put forth a parable to those which were bidden, when he marked how they chose out the chief rooms; saying unto them,

Lk 14:8:When thou art bidden of any man to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him;

Lk 14:9:And he that bade thee and him come and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room.

Lk 14:10:But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, Friend, go up higher:then shalt thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee.

Lk 14:11:For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

Lk 14:12:Then said he also to him that bade him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor thy rich neighbours; lest they also bid thee again, and a recompence be made thee.

Lk 14:13:But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind:

Lk 14:14:And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee:for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.
