“A man’s pride will bring him low, but a humble spirit will obtain honor.”
Proverbs 29:23 (BSB)
Context Reading
21A servant pampered from his youth will bring grief in the end. 22An angry man stirs up dissension, and a hot-tempered man abounds in transgression. 23A man’s pride will bring him low, but a humble spirit will obtain honor. 24A partner to a thief hates his own soul; he receives the oath but does not testify. 25The fear of man is a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is set securely on high.
