⁶ Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

¹⁰ Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

¹¹ For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

²³ A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.

¹² And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.

¹⁴ I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

⁵² He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.

²⁶ Notwithstanding Hezekiah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the Lord came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah.

¹² And when he was in affliction, he besought the Lord his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers,

¹² And when he humbled himself, the wrath of the Lord turned from him, that he would not destroy him altogether: and also in Judah things went well.
