TSK · Proverbs 16:18

Howbeit the king of the children of Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Jephthah which he sent him.

So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself?

¶ [When] pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly [is] wisdom.

¶ Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour [is] humility.

The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.

And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Armenia: and Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.

Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.

And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thine heart, though thou knewest all this;

[And] when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up; and he shall cast down [many] ten thousands: but he shall not be strengthened [by it].

Peter answered and said unto him, Though all [men] shall be offended because of thee, [yet] will I never be offended.

‹And he that bade thee and him come and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room.›

Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
