Luke 14:7-9

7And he spake a parable unto those which were bidden, when he marked how they chose out the chief seats; saying unto them,

8When thou art bidden of any man to a marriage feast, sit not down in the chief seat; lest haply a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him,

9and 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.
