9. And he that bade you and him come and say to you, Give this man your place; and you begin with shame to take the lowest place.
10. But when you are bidden, go and sit down in the lowest place; that when he that bade you come, he may say unto you, Friend, go up higher: then shall you have honor in the presence of them that sit at table with you.
11. For whosoever exalts himself shall be abased; and he that humbles himself shall be exalted.
12. Then said he also to him that bade him,
13. But when you give a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind:
14. And you shall be blessed; for they cannot recompense you: for you shall be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.
15. And when one of them that sat at table with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.
