Legacy Standard Bible
6 Do not promote your majesty in the presence of the king,
And in the place of great men do not stand;
7 For (A)it is better that it be said to you, “Come up here,”
Than for you to be placed lower in the presence of a noble,
Whom your eyes have seen.

6 Don’t boast about yourself before the king,
and don’t stand in the place of the great;

than to demote you in plain view of a noble.[a](A)
