  'I will ascend into heaven,
  I will exalt my throne above the stars of God;

  On the farthest sides of the north;
  I will ascend above the heights of the clouds,
  I will be like the Most High.'

• 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."

• Psalm 73:3-9
  For I was envious of the boastful,
  When I saw the prosperity of the wicked. For there are no pangs in their death,
  But their strength is firm.
  They are not in trouble as other men,
  Nor are they plagued like other men.
  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.

• Daniel 5:18-23
  O king, the Most High God gave Nebuchadnezzar your father a kingdom and majesty, glory and honor. And because of the majesty that He gave him, all peoples, nations, and languages trembled and feared before him. Whomever he wished, he executed; whomever he wished, he kept alive; whomever he wished, he set up; and whomever he wished, he put down. But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit was hardened in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him. Then he was driven from the sons of men, his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild donkeys. They fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till he knew that the Most High God rules in the kingdom of men, and appoints over it whomever He chooses. 'But you his son, Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart, although you knew all this. And you have lifted yourself up against the Lord of heaven. They have brought the vessels of His house before you, and you and your lords, your wives and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. And you have praised the gods of silver and gold, bronze and iron, wood and stone, which do not see or hear or know; and the God who holds your breath in His hand and owns all your ways, you have not glorified.

  And though you set your nest among the stars,
  From there I will bring you down," says the LORD.
