Humildade
A humildade é o caminho da honra verdadeira. Deus resiste aos soberbos, mas dá graça aos humildes. Jesus lavou os pés dos discípulos e nos ensinou que o maior é aquele que serve.
Humilhar-se diante de Deus
Humilhai-vos diante do Senhor e Ele vos exaltará. Quem se humilha será exaltado, e quem se exalta será humilhado.
Be humble before the Lord and he will lift you up.
Humble yourself before God's powerful hand so that he will lift you up at the appropriate time.
and if my people who are called by my name humble themselves and pray and return to me, and turn away from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sins, and heal their land.
The Lord is good and he is right; that is why he shows the way to those who are lost.
He leads those who are humble in doing what's right, teaching them his way.
If you're proud, you'll be humiliated; but if you're humble, you'll be honored.
Pride leads to destruction; humility goes before honor.
Humildade como virtude
Considerai os outros como superiores a vós mesmos. Revesti-vos de humildade, mansidão e paciência no trato uns com os outros.
Don't do anything from a spirit of selfishness or pride, but humbly think of others better than you do of yourself.
Glory be to God the Father, forever and ever. Amen.
Since you are God's special people, holy and dearly loved, adopt a sympathetic nature that is kind, humble, gentle, and patient.
Don't think proudly of yourselves; be gentle and patient, showing tolerance to each other in love.
You, my brothers and sisters, were called to freedom! Just don't use your freedom as an excuse to indulge your sinful human nature—instead serve one another in love.
Finally, you should all have the same attitude. Be sympathetic and love each other. Be compassionate, and humble.
Don't focus on outward attractiveness—hairstyles, gold jewelry, or fashionable clothes— instead let it come from within, the lasting attractiveness of a gentle and peaceful spirit on the inside. That's what God values.
O exemplo de Jesus
Aprendei de mim, que sou manso e humilde de coração. O maior entre vós seja o que serve — esse é o caminho do Reino.
Accept my yoke, and learn from me. For I am kind and have a humble heart, and in me you will find the rest you need. For my yoke is gentle, and my burden is light."
When you give to the poor, don't be like the hypocrites who blow their own trumpets to announce what they're doing in the synagogues and in the streets so that people will praise them. I tell you the truth: they already have their reward.
Jesus sat down and called the twelve disciples together. "If anyone wants to be first, he has to be the very last, the servant of everyone else," he told them.
Then he said to them, "Anyone who accepts this little child in my name accepts me, and anyone who accepts me accepts the one who sent me. Whoever is least among you all is the greatest."
The reward you receive for being humble and respecting the Lord is wealth, honor, and life.
Respect for the Lord teaches wisdom; humility goes before honor.
With pride comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.
Humildade verdadeira
O que se exige de ti? Praticar a justiça, amar a misericórdia e andar humildemente com teu Deus.
The Lord has told you what is good, and what the Lord asks from you: to do what is right, to love kindness, and to walk in humility with your God.
You married women, respect your husbands appropriately in the Lord. You married men, love your wives and don't treat them badly.
Think about one another. Don't consider yourself more important than others; live humbly. Don't be conceited.
He chose the things that are unimportant and despised by the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, so that nobody should boast in God's presence.
Who among you has wisdom and understanding? Let their good lives demonstrate what they do—doing what is right with wise kindness and consideration.
