And you shall be made to eat grass like an ox, and seven periods of time shall pass over you, nuntil you know that the Most High rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom he will.”

Luke 14:8-11

8When you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in a place of honor, lest someone more distinguished than you be invited by him, 9and he who invited you both will come and say to you, ‘Give your place to this person,’ and then you will begin with shame to take the lowest place. 10But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, oso that when your host comes he may say to you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at table with you. 11For peveryone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
