Luca 14:7 In-Context

5 Poi disse loro: Chi di voi, se un figliuolo od un bue cade in un pozzo, non lo trae subito fuori in giorno di sabato?
6 Ed essi non potevano risponder nulla in contrario.
7 Notando poi come gl’invitati sceglievano i primi posti, disse loro questa parabola:
8 Quando sarai invitato a nozze da qualcuno, non ti mettere a tavola al primo posto, che talora non sia stato invitato da lui qualcuno più ragguardevole di te,
9 e chi ha invitato te e lui non venga a dirti: Cedi il posto a questo! e tu debba con tua vergogna cominciare allora ad occupare l’ultimo posto.
