Lord God, help me not be prideful, so the pride of my heart will not deceive me. Take away my lofty spirit that thinks I should be exalted, or that I have made my habitation among the great. Before Your mighty hand, strength will fail, but in my meekness I shall find You.
|
The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground? Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the LORD.
Obadiah 1: 3-4
