Orgulho
O orgulho é um dos pecados mais condenados na Bíblia. Deus resiste aos soberbos, mas dá graça aos humildes. A humildade é o caminho da honra verdadeira.
Deus resiste ao soberbo
A soberba precede a ruína e o orgulho antecede a queda. Deus abomina o coração altivo e promete humilhar quem se exalta.
Before destruction comes pride,
and before a fall, a haughty spirit.
An abomination of Yahweh are all who are arrogant of heart;
rest assured, he will not go unpunished.
There is a way that seems upright to a man,
but its end is the way of death.
The fear of Yahweh is hatred of evil,
pride, and arrogance and an evil way.
And I hate a mouth of perversity.
Pride comes, then disgrace comes,
but wisdom is with the humble.
Pride comes, then disgrace comes,
but wisdom is with the humble.
The pride of a person will bring him humiliation,
and the lowly of spirit will obtain honor.
The pride of a person will bring him humiliation,
and the lowly of spirit will obtain honor.
In the presence of destruction, the heart of a man will be haughty,
but in the presence of honor, humble.
In the presence of destruction, the heart of a man will be haughty,
but in the presence of honor, humble.
The house of the proud, Yahweh will tear it down,
but he will maintain the property line of the widow.
Humildade como caminho
Humilhai-vos diante do Senhor e Ele vos exaltará. A grandeza no Reino vem pelo serviço humilde, não pela autopromoção.
But he gives greater grace. Therefore it says,
"God opposes the proud,
but gives grace to the humble."
Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.
Now let the brother of humble circumstances boast in his high position, but the rich person in his humiliation, because he will pass away like a flower of the grass.
In the same way, younger men, be subject to the elders, and all of you clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, so that he may exalt you at the right time, casting all your cares on him, because he cares for you.
For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted."
Do nothing according to selfish ambition or according to empty conceit, but in humility considering one another better than yourselves, each of you not looking out for your own interests, but also each of you for the interests of others.
Christ’s Humiliation and Exaltation
Think this in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus,
Os perigos do orgulho
O orgulho cega, gera contendas e afasta de Deus. A Escritura adverte contra a soberba da vida e a vã glória mundana.
because everything that is in the world—the desire of the flesh and the desire of the eyes and the arrogance of material possessions—is not from the Father, but is from the world.
Therefore, the one who thinks that he stands must watch out lest he fall.
And if I parcel out all my possessions, and if I hand over my body in order that I will be burned, but do not have love, it benefits me nothing.
and the insignificant of the world, and the despised, God chose, the things that are not, in order that he might abolish the things that are, so that all flesh may not boast before God.
But "the one who boasts, let him boast in the Lord."For it is not the one commending himself who is approved, but the one whom the Lord commends.
And he said, "What comes out of a person, that defiles a person. For from within, from the heart of people, come evil plans, sexual immoralities, thefts, murders, adulteries, acts of greed, malicious deeds, deceit, licentiousness, envy, abusive speech, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a person."
Only by insolence is strife set up,
and wisdom is with those who take advice.
The reward of humility is the fear of Yahweh—
wealth and honor and life.
Instructions to the Rich
Command those who are rich in this present age not to be proud and not to put their hope in the uncertainty of riches, but in God, who provides us all things richly for enjoyment,
O olhar de Deus
O Senhor não olha como o homem. Ele vê o coração e se agrada dos quebrantados de espírito e dos que tremem diante da sua Palavra.
But Yahweh said to Samuel, "Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For God does not see what man sees, for a man looks on the outward appearance, but Yahweh looks on the heart."
Do not increase speaking very proud words!
Let no arrogance go forth from your mouth,
for Yahweh is a God of knowledge
whose deeds are not weighed.
And my hand has made all these things,
and all these came to be,"
declares Yahweh, "but I look to this one:
to the humble and the contrite of spirit
and the one frightened at my word.
Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt and honor the king of heaven, for all his works are truth, and his ways are justice and that he is able to humble those who walk in pride."
The king of Israel answered and said, "Tell him, ‘Let not him who girds on his armor boast as one who takes off his armor.’ "
Think the same thing toward one another; do not think arrogantly, but associate with the lowly. Do not be wise in your own sight.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self control. Against such things there is no law.
