Luke 14:9 in Context — Luke 14
7 Il adressa ensuite une parabole aux conviés, en voyant qu’ils choisissaient les premières places; et il leur dit:
8 Lorsque tu seras invité par quelqu’un à des noces, ne te mets pas à la première place, de peur qu’il n’y ait parmi les invités une personne plus considérable que toi,
9 et que celui qui vous a invités l’un et l’autre ne vienne te dire: Cède la place à cette personne-là. Tu aurais alors la honte d’aller occuper la dernière place.
10 Mais, lorsque tu seras invité, va te mettre à la dernière place, afin que, quand celui qui t’a invité viendra, il te dise: Mon ami, monte plus haut. Alors cela te fera honneur devant tous ceux qui seront à table avec toi.
11 Car quiconque s’élève sera abaissé, et quiconque s’abaisse sera élevé.
