Luke 14:8

Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial
KJV ORIGINAL
When thou art bidden of any man to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him;
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

When someone invites you to a wedding, don't automatically grab the best seat at the head table. There might be someone more important than you who was also invited, and that would be awkward.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Stay humble — let others offer you the good seat instead of assuming you deserve it.
