¹²Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.

¹¹For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”

Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. ¹⁰Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he will exalt you.

⁵Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility and subject yourselves to one another; for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

³³The fear of the LORD teaches wisdom. Before honor is humility.

¹⁸Pride goes before destruction, and an arrogant spirit before a fall.

¹⁴I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

¹¹The lofty looks of man will be brought low, the arrogance of men will be bowed down, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day. ¹²For there will be a day of the LORD of Armies for all that is proud and arrogant, and for all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low—
