American Standard Version
Luke 14:8-14
8WhenG3752 thou art bidden of any man to a marriageG1062 feastG1062, sit not down in the chief seat; lestG3361 haply a more honorable man than thou beG1510 bidden of him, 9and he that bade thee and him shall comeG2064 and sayG3004 to thee, GiveG1325 this manG3778 placeG5117; and then thou shalt beginG757 with shameG152 to take the lowest placeG5117. 10But whenG3752 thou art bidden, goG4198 and sit down in the lowest placeG5117; that whenG3752 he that hath bidden thee cometh, he may sayG3004 to thee, FriendG5384, goG4198 up higher: thenG5119 shalt thou have gloryG1391 in the presenceG1799 of all that sit at meat with thee. 11For every one that exalteth himself shall be humbledG5013; and he that humbleth himself shall be exaltedG5312.
12And he saidG3004 to him alsoG2532 that had bidden him, WhenG3752 thou makest a dinner or a supperG1173, callG2564 not thy friendsG5384, nor thy brethren, nor thy kinsmen, nor richG4145 neighbors; lestG3361 haply they alsoG2532 bid thee again, and a recompense be madeG4160 thee. 13But whenG3752 thou makest a feast, bid the poorG4434, the maimed, the lameG5560, the blindG5185: 14and thou shalt beG1510 blessed; because they have not wherewith to recompense thee: for thou shalt beG1510 recompensed in the resurrectionG386 of the justG1342.
