Luke 14:8

`When thou mayest be called by any one to marriage-feasts, thou mayest not recline on the first couch, lest a more honourable than thou may have been called by him,

"When you are invited by anyone to a marriage feast, don't sit in the best seat, since perhaps a more honorable man than you might be invited by him,

When you get a request to come to a feast, do not take the best seat, for a more important man than you may be coming,

Luke 14:9

and he who did call thee and him having come shall say to thee, Give to this one place, and then thou mayest begin with shame to occupy the last place.

and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, 'Make room for this man.' Then you would begin, with shame, to take the lowest place.

And then the giver of the feast will come to you and say, Give your place to this man; and you, with shame, will have to take the lowest seat.

`But, when thou mayest be called, having gone on, recline in the last place, that when he who called thee may come, he may say to thee, Friend, come up higher; then thou shalt have glory before those reclining with thee;

But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, 'Friend, move up higher.' Then you will have glory in the presence of all who sit at the table with you.

But when you come, go and take the lowest seat, so that when the giver of the feast comes, he may say to you, Friend, come up higher; and then you will have honour in the eyes of all the others who are there.

Luke 14:11

because every one who is exalting himself shall be humbled, and he who is humbling himself shall be exalted.`

He also said to the one who had invited him, "When you make a dinner or a supper, don't call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back.

And he said to the master of the house, When you give a feast, do not send for your friends and your brothers and your family or your neighbours who have wealth, for they may give a feast for you, and so you will get a reward.

Luke 14:13

but when thou mayest make a feast, be calling poor, maimed, lame, blind,

But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind;

But when you give a feast, send for the poor and the blind and those who are broken in body:

Luke 14:14

and happy thou shalt be, because they have not to recompense thee, for it shall be recompensed to thee in the rising again of the righteous.`

and you will be blessed, because they don't have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous."

And you will have a blessing, because they will not be able to give you any payment, and you will get your reward when the upright come back from the dead.
