• Proverbs 16:18-19
  Pride goes before destruction,
  And a haughty spirit before a fall.
  Better to be of a humble spirit with the lowly,
  Than to divide the spoil with the proud.
  
   
• Isaiah 14:13-15
  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.'
  Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol,
  To the lowest depths of the Pit.
  
   
• Psalm 10:2-11
  The wicked in his pride persecutes the poor;
  Let them be caught in the plots which they have devised. For the wicked boasts of his heart’s desire;
  He blesses the greedy and renounces the LORD.
  The wicked in his proud countenance does not seek God;
  God is in none of his thoughts. His ways are always prospering;
  Your judgments are far above, out of his sight;
  As for all his enemies, he sneers at them.
  He has said in his heart, 'I shall not be moved;
  I shall never be in adversity.'
  His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and oppression;
  Under his tongue is trouble and iniquity. He sits in the lurking places of the villages;
  In the secret places he murders the innocent;
  His eyes are secretly fixed on the helpless.
  He lies in wait secretly, as a lion in his den;
  He lies in wait to catch the poor;
  He catches the poor when he draws him into his net.
  So he crouches, he lies low,
  That the helpless may fall by his strength.
  He has said in his heart,
  “God has forgotten;
  He hides His face;
  He will never see.”
   
• Psalm 73:6-9
  Therefore pride serves as their necklace;
  Violence covers them like a garment.
  Their eyes bulge with abundance;
  They have more than heart could wish.
  They scoff and speak wickedly concerning oppression;
  They speak loftily.
  They set their mouth against the heavens,
  And their tongue walks through the earth.
   
• Psalm 73:18-19
  Surely You set them in slippery places;
  You cast them down to destruction.
  Oh, how they are brought to desolation, as in a moment!
  They are utterly consumed with terrors.
