A Haughty Spirit

Proverbs 16:18

Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.

Proverbs 18:12

• Heart

Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.

Proverbs 16:19

• Lowly
• Character

Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.

Proverbs 21:4

An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin.

Proverbs 16:18-28

• Lowly
• Character
• Prudent

Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud. He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the LORD, happy is he. The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning. read more Understanding is a wellspring of life unto him that hath it: but the instruction of fools is folly. The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips. Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. He that laboureth laboureth for himself; for his mouth craveth it of him. An ungodly man diggeth up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire. A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends. show less

Proud and haughty scorner is his name, who dealeth in proud wrath.

A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
