寧有人曰、請爾上升、勿於所覲之君前、令爾下退、

宁可让人家说“请你上到这里来”，强如在你觐见的贵人面前令你退下。

与其在权贵面前受羞辱，不如等人邀请你坐上座。

因为让人对你说“上到这里来吧”，好过在你所见的高贵者面前被降卑。

寧可讓人家說「請你上到這裏來」，強如在你覲見的貴人面前令你退下。

與其在權貴面前受羞辱，不如等人邀請你坐上座。

寧可有人對你說：『請上這兒來！』也不可在權貴面前被退下。你的眼看見甚麼，

因為讓人對你說「上到這裡來吧」，好過在你所見的高貴者面前被降卑。

寧有人請上坐、勿於尊者前趨末席。

爾在尊者前、爾在尊者前原文作在爾目所觀之尊者前與其有人令爾退、不如有人謂爾曰、請爾上、

it is better for him to say to you,“ Come up here,” than for him to humiliate you before his nobles. What you have seen with your eyes

Let the king say to you,“ Come up here.” That’s better than for him to shame you in front of his nobles. What you have seen with your own eyes

for it is better to be told,“ Come up here,” than to be put lower in the presence of a noble. What your eyes have seen

It’s better to wait for an invitation to the head table than to be sent away in public disgrace. Just because you’ve seen something,

for it is better for him to say to you,“ Come up here!” than to demote you in plain view of a noble.

For it is better that it be said to you,“ Come up here,” Than for you to be placed lower in the presence of the prince, Whom your eyes have seen.

For it is better that he say to you,“ Come up here,” Than that you should be put lower in the presence of the prince, Whom your eyes have seen.

For better is it that it be said unto thee, Come up hither, Than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the prince, Whom thine eyes have seen.

for it is better for him to say to you,“ Come up here!” than to demote you in plain view of a noble.

For better[ it is] that it be said unto thee, Come up hither; than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the prince whom thine eyes have seen.

耶穌見所請之人、首位是擇、遂設喻語之曰、爾見請赴婚筵、毋居首位、恐所請有尊於爾者、則請爾與彼之人、前語爾曰、其位讓於斯人、爾必慚而就末位、惟見請時、往居末位、則請爾者來語爾曰、友上坐、則爾於同席者前有榮矣、蓋凡自高者、將卑之、自卑者、將高之也、○

幼宜服長、爾曹謙以自束、互相服役、蓋上帝拒驕泰者、賜恩卑遜者、

我語汝、此人歸、較彼見義、蓋自高者、將卑之、自卑者、將高之也、○

中心謙卑、與貧者同處、勝於與驕人分贓、

此後、我見有門啟於天、初聞之聲如號角者、與我言曰、升此、我將以後必成之事示爾、
