Luke 14:10 DBY

⁸  When thou art invited by any one to a wedding, do not lay thyself down in the first place at table, lest perhaps a more honourable than thou be invited by him,

⁹  and he who invited thee and him come and say to thee, Give place to this [man], and then thou begin with shame to take the last place.

¹⁰  But when thou hast been invited, go and put thyself down in the last place, that when he who has invited thee comes, he may say to thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have honour before all that are lying at table with thee;

¹¹  for every one that exalts himself shall be abased, and he that abases himself shall be exalted.

¹²  And he said also to him that had invited him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor thy kinsfolk, nor rich neighbours, lest it may be they also should invite thee in return, and a recompense be made thee.
