Treasury of Scripture Knowledge references in NET.
The LORD confronted Manasseh and his people, but they paid no attention.
When people are brought low and you say‘Lift them up!’ then he will save the downcast;
After pride came, disgrace followed; but wisdom came with humility.
Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.
Proud men will be brought low, arrogant men will be humiliated; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.
My hand made them; that is how they came to be,” says the LORD. I show special favor to the humble and contrite, who respect what I have to say.
And when his mind became arrogant and his spirit filled with pride, he was deposed from his royal throne and his honor was removed from him.
“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to them.
And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.
I tell you that this man went down to his home justified rather than the Pharisee. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
But he gives greater grace. Therefore it says,“God opposes the proud, but he gives grace to the humble.”
