Humildade

Por Bíblia Online –

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.

10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

8 Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.

9 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.

23 A man’s pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.

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

Humildade como virtude

Considerai os outros como superiores a vós mesmos. Revesti-vos de humildade, mansidão e paciência no trato uns com os outros.

3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.

20 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;

2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:

3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; 4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

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.

29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

2 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

35 And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.

48 And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.

4 By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honour, and life.

33 The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.

2 When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.

Humildade verdadeira

O que se exige de ti? Praticar a justiça, amar a misericórdia e andar humildemente com teu Deus.

8 He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

18 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. 19 Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.

16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: 29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.

13 Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.
