“Everyone who is proud in heart is detestable to the LORD; be assured that he will not go unpunished.”
Proverbs 16:5 (BSB)
Context Reading
3Commit your works to the LORD and your plans will be achieved. 4The LORD has made everything for His purpose — even the wicked for the day of disaster. 5Everyone who is proud in heart is detestable to the LORD; be assured that he will not go unpunished. 6By loving devotion and faithfulness iniquity is atoned for, and by the fear of the LORD one turns aside from evil. 7When a man’s ways please the LORD, He makes even the man’s enemies live at peace with him.
