| 6 | Honour not thyself before a king, And in the place of the great stand not. | 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 that he hath said to thee, 'Come thou up hither,' Than that he humble thee before a noble, 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 | |
