⁶ Don’t magnify yourself in the presence of a king,
    and don’t pretend to be in the company of famous men,
⁷ for it is better that it be told you, “Come up here,”
    than for you to be placed lower
        in the presence of an official.

What you’ve seen with your own eyes,

²⁷ To eat too much honey isn’t good;
    and neither is it honorable to seek one’s own glory.
