- the pride:
- "Hearª° ye, and give ear;ª° be not¹ proud:ª° for¹ the LORDª hath spoken.ª° ... But if¹ ye will not¹ hearª° it, my soulª shall weepª° in secret placesª forª¹ [your] pride;ª and mine eyeª shall weep²° sore,ª° and run downª° with tears,ª because¹ the LORD'Sª flockª is carried away captive.ª°" {Jer 13:15-17} + "And I will breakª°¹ the prideª of your power;ª and I will makeª°¹ your heavenª as iron,ª and your earthª as brass:ª" {Lev 26:19} + "Deckª° thyself now¹ [with] majestyª and excellency;ª and arrayª° thyself with gloryª and beauty.ª ... Look²° on¹ every one¹ [that is] proud,ª [and] bring him low;ª° and tread downª° the wickedª in their place.¹" {Job 40:10-12} + "Prideª [goeth] beforeª destruction,ª and an haughtyª spiritª beforeª a fall.ª" {Prv 16:18} + "Enterª° into the rock,ª and hideª° thee in the dust,ª forª¹ fearª of the LORD,ª and for the gloryª¹ of his majesty.ª ... And the loftinessª of manª shall be bowed down,ª° and the haughtinessª of men²¹ shall be made low:ª° and the LORDª alone¹ shall be exaltedª° in that¹ day.ª" {Isa 2:10-17} + "The LORDª of hostsª hath purposedª° it, to stainª° the prideª of all¹ glory,ª [and] to bring into contemptª° all¹ the honourableª° of the earth.ª" {Isa 23:9} + "And they were haughty,ª° and committedª° abominationª beforeª me: therefore I took them awayª°¹ as¹ I sawª° [good]." {Ezk 16:50} + "For thy sisterª Sodomª was¹ not¹ mentionedª by thy mouthª in the dayª of thy pride,ª" {Ezk 16:56} + "For¹ the LORDª hath turned awayª°¹ the excellencyª of Jacob,ª as the excellencyª of Israel:ª for¹ the emptiersª° have emptied¹ them out,²° and marredª° their vine branches.ª" {Nah 2:2} *marg. "In that¹ dayª shalt thou not¹ be ashamedª° for all¹¹ thy doings,ª wherein¹ thou hast transgressedª° against me: for¹ then¹ I will take awayª° out of the midstª¹ of thee them that rejoiceª in thy pride,ª and thou shalt no¹ moreª°¹ be haughtyª° because of my holyª mountain.ª" {Zph 3:11} + "I tellª° you,ª this manª went downª° toª his²¹ houseª justifiedª° [rather] thanª the other:ª forª every oneª that exaltethª° himselfª shall be abased;ª° andª he that humblethª° himselfª shall be exalted.ª°" {Lke 18:14} + "Butª he givethª° moreª grace.ª Whereforeª he saith,ª° Godª resistethª° the proud,ª butª givethª° graceª unto the humble.ª" {Jms 4:6} + "Likewise,ª ye younger,ª submit yourselvesª° unto the elder.ª Yea,ª allª [of you] be subjectª° one to another,ª and¹ be clothed²° with¹ humility:ª forª Godª resistethª° the proud,ª andª givethª° graceª to the humble.ª" {1Pe 5:5}
