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.

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

¹⁵ And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

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

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

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

⁶ But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

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

⁶ Though the Lord be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.

³ Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
