Today we will look at some of what the word of God has to say about pride. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a man. But with the humble is wisdom. But with the well-advised is wisdom.
Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall.
A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood, A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in running to evil. For the LORD preserves the faithful, And fully repays the proud person. But the proud He knows from afar. Blessed is that man who makes the LORD his trust, And does not respect the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
