"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child, he is the greater in the kingdom of heaven.

Because you have humbled yourself, and you shall say, Man has behaved proudly, but He shall save him that is of lowly eyes.

For the Lord is on high, and [yet] regards the lowly; and He knows high things from afar off.

The fear of the Lord is instruction and wisdom, and the highest honor will correspond therewith.

Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.

Better is a meek-spirited man with lowliness, than one who divides spoils with the proud.

Pride brings a man low, but the Lord upholds the humble-minded with honor.

Thus says the Most High, who dwells on high forever, Holy in the holies is His name, the Most High resting in the holies, and giving patience to the faint-hearted, and giving life to the broken-hearted;

Now therefore, I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and greatly exalt and glorify the King of heaven; for all His works are true, and His paths are judgment: and all that walk in pride He is able to abase.

He has shown strength with His arm; He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

He has overthrown the mighty from their thrones, and exalted the lowly.

For everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted."

I say to you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted."

But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

Likewise, younger [people], subject yourselves to [the] elders. And all of you be subject to one another, and be clothed with humility, because "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble."
