“I said to the arrogant, ‘Do not boast;’
And to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up the horn [of self-glorification].

‘Do not lift up your [defiant and aggressive] horn on high,
Do not speak with a stiff neck.’”


For not from the east, nor from the west,
Nor from the desert comes exaltation.(A)

But God is the Judge;
He puts down one and lifts up another.

To the arrogant(A) I say, ‘Boast no more,’(B)
    and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns.[a](C)
Do not lift your horns against heaven;
    do not speak so defiantly.(D)’”

No one from the east or the west
    or from the desert can exalt themselves.
It is God who judges:(E)
    He brings one down, he exalts another.(F)
