- Isaiah 14:13-14
For you have said in your heart:
'I will ascend into heaven,
I will exalt my throne above the stars of God;
I will also sit on the mount of the congregation
On the farthest sides of the north;
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds,
I will be like the Most High.'
- 1 Timothy 3:6
not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same condemnation as the devil.
- James 3:13
Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom.
- Proverbs 13:10
By pride comes nothing but strife,
But with the well-advised is wisdom.
- Proverbs 26:16
The lazy man is wiser in his own eyes
Than seven men who can answer sensibly.
