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 made low before the LORD, and He will exalt you.
be humbled, then, under the powerful hand of God, that He may exalt you in good time,
and My people on whom My Name is called are humbled, and pray, and seek My face, and turn back from their evil ways, then I hear from the heavens, and forgive their sin, and heal their land.
Good and upright [is] YHWH, || Therefore He directs sinners in the way. He causes the humble to tread in judgment, || And teaches the humble His way.
The pride of man humbles him, || And humility of spirit upholds honor.
The heart of man is high before destruction, || And humility [is] 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.
nothing in rivalry or vainglory, but in humility of mind counting one another more excellent than yourselves—
and to God, even our Father, [is] the glory through the ages of the ages. Amen.
Put on, therefore, as chosen ones of God, holy and beloved, yearnings of mercies, kindness, humble-mindedness, meekness, long-suffering,
with all lowliness and meekness, with long-suffering, bearing with one another in love,
For you were called to freedom, brothers, only the freedom [is] not for an occasion to the flesh, but serve one another through the love,
And finally, be all of one mind, having fellow-feeling, loving as brothers, compassionate, courteous,
whose adorning—let it not be that which is outward, of braiding of hair, and of putting around of things of gold, or of putting on of garments, but—the hidden man of the heart, by the incorruptible [thing] of the meek and quiet spirit, which is of great value before God,
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.
take up My yoke on you, and learn from Me, because I am meek and humble in heart, and you will find rest to your souls, for My yoke [is] easy, and My burden is light."
whenever, therefore, you may do kindness, you may not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do, in the synagogues, and in the streets, that they may have glory from men; truly I say to you, they have their reward!
and having sat down He called the Twelve, and He says to them, "If any wills to be first, he will be last of all, and minister of all."
and said to them, "Whoever may receive this child in My Name, receives Me, and whoever may receive Me, receives Him who sent Me, for he who is least among you all—he will be great."
The end of humility [is] the fear of YHWH, riches, and honor, and life.
The fear of YHWH [is] the instruction of wisdom, || And humility [is] before honor!
Pride has come, and shame comes, || And wisdom [is] with the lowly.
Humildade verdadeira
O que se exige de ti? Praticar a justiça, amar a misericórdia e andar humildemente com teu Deus.
He has declared to you, O man, what [is] good; Indeed, what is YHWH requiring of you, || Except—to do judgment, and love kindness, || And to walk lowly with your God?
The wives: be subject to your own husbands, as is fit in the LORD; the husbands: love your wives, and do not be bitter with them;
of the same mind toward one another, not minding the high things, but with the lowly going along; do not become wise in your own conceit;
and God chose the base things of the world, and the things despised, and the things that are not, that He may make useless the things that are— that no flesh may glory before Him;
Who [is] wise and intelligent among you? Let him show his works out of good behavior in meekness of wisdom,
