• Ezekiel 28:16-17
  "By the abundance of your trading
  You became filled with violence within,
  And you sinned;
  Therefore I cast you as a profane thing
  Out of the mountain of God;
  And I destroyed you, O covering cherub,
  From the midst of the fiery stones.
  "Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty;
  You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor;
  I cast you to the ground,
  I laid you before kings,
  That they might gaze at you.
  
   
• Luke 18:9-14
  Also He spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, 'God, I thank You that I am not like other men—extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.' And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me a sinner!' I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."
   
• 1 Corinthians 4:6-7
  Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that you may learn in us not to think beyond what is written, that none of you may be puffed up on behalf of one against the other. For who makes you differ from another? And what do you have that you did not receive? Now if you did indeed receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?
   
• Ecclesiastes 10:12-15
  The words of a wise man’s mouth are gracious,
  But the lips of a fool shall swallow him up;
  The words of his mouth begin with foolishness,
  And the end of his talk is raving madness.
  A fool also multiplies words.
  No man knows what is to be;
  Who can tell him what will be after him?
  The labor of fools wearies them,
  For they do not even know how to go to the city!
  
   
• Psalm 19:12-13
  Who can understand his errors?
  Cleanse me from secret faults.
  Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins;
  Let them not have dominion over me.
  Then I shall be blameless,
  And I shall be innocent of great transgression.
   
• Isaiah 2:11-12
  The lofty looks of man shall be humbled,
  The haughtiness of men shall be bowed down,
  And the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
  For the day of the LORD of hosts
  Shall come upon everything proud and lofty,
  Upon everything lifted up—
  And it shall be brought low—
  
   
• Isaiah 10:12-13
  Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Lord has performed all His work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, that He will say, “I will punish the fruit of the arrogant heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his haughty looks.” For he says:
  “ By the strength of my hand I have done it,
  And by my wisdom, for I am prudent;
  Also I have removed the boundaries of the people,
  And have robbed their treasuries;
  So I have put down the inhabitants like a valiant man.
  
   
• Daniel 4:29-31
  At the end of the twelve months he was walking about the royal palace of Babylon. The king spoke, saying, "Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for a royal dwelling by my mighty power and for the honor of my majesty?" While the word was still in the king's mouth, a voice fell from heaven: "King Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is spoken: the kingdom has departed from you!
   
• Revelation 3:16-17
  So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. Because you say, "I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing"—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked—

  Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for
  "God resists the proud,
  But gives grace to the humble." Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.

• James 3:13-18
  Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom. But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic. For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
