| 6 | Put not thyself forward in the presence of the king, And stand not in the place of great men: | Do not put yourself forward in the king’s presence or stand in the place of the great, | Do not exalt yourself in the king’s presence, and do not claim a place among his great men; | |
| 7 | 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 to be told, “Come up here,” than to be put lower in the presence of a noble. What your eyes have seen | 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 | |
