18 Ga’on (pride) goeth before shever (destruction),

and a ruach of haughtiness before a fall.

5 Every one that is proud in lev

is to’evat Hashem;

though yad join in yad, he shall not go unpunished.

25 There is a derech that seemeth yashar (right) before an ish,

but its acharit (future, latter end) is the drakhei mavet.

13 The Yirat Hashem is to hate rah;

pride, and ga’on (arrogance), and the derech rah,

and the perverse peh (mouth), do I hate.

2 When zadon (pride) cometh, then cometh kalon (shame, disgrace),

but with the humble is chochmah.

2 When zadon (pride) cometh, then cometh kalon (shame, disgrace),

but with the humble is chochmah.

23 Ga’avat adam (pride of man) shall bring him low,

but the humble in ruach shall attain kavod.

23 Ga’avat adam (pride of man) shall bring him low,

but the humble in ruach shall attain kavod.

12 Before shever (destruction) the lev ish is haughty,

and before kavod is anavah (humility).

12 Before shever (destruction) the lev ish is haughty,

and before kavod is anavah (humility).

25 Hashem will destroy the bais of the proud,

but he will maintain the boundary of the almanah.

6 But He gives all the more Chen v’Chesed! Therefore it says, Hashem LALETZIM HU YALITZ V’LA’ANAYIM YITEN CHEN* (Hashem opposes the proud mocker but gives grace to the humble).

10 Be humbled before Hashem and He will exalt you.*

9 But let the Ach b’Moshiach of shiflut (lowliness) glory in the da’as that Hashem will exalt him. 10 And let the Ach b’Moshiach who has osher (riches) glory in his bizyoinos (humiliation), in the da’as that Hashem will bring him low, because KOL HABASAR KHATZIR* (All flesh is grass) and so he likewise will vanish.*

5 Likewise, bochrim (young men), be submissive to the Zekenim (Elders) and clothe yourselves in the kaftan of anavah (humility) toward one another, because IM LALETZIM HU YALITZ V’LA’ANAYIM YITEN CHEN* (Indeed Hashem scorns the scorners, but gives grace to the humble).

6 Therefore, be humbled under the mighty hand of Hashem, that you may be exalted in due time. 7 HASHLECH AL ADONOI Y’HAVECHA V’HU Y’CHALKELECHA* (Cast your care on Hashem and He will sustain you), because Hashem cares and is concerned about you.

11 For everyone exalting himself shall be humbled, and the one humbling himself shall be exalted.

3 Doing nothing according to anochiyut* (selfishness) nor according to empty ga’avah (conceit, haughtiness, arrogance), but in anavah (humility), fergin (graciously grant) each other esteem above yourselves.* 4 Let each of you talmidim look after not only your own interests, but also the best interests of others.* 5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua,

16 For all that is in the Olam Hazeh, the ta’avah (lust) of the basar and the ta’avah of the eyes and the gaa’vah (pride) in the chashuve (prominence) of what one has in this life, oneʼs vital possessions, all this is not of HaAv but is of the Olam Hazeh.*

12 So then the one that presupposes that he stands, let him take care lest he fall.

3 And if I’m a marbitz tzedaka and give all I possess in gemilut chasadim and if I give my body al kiddush Hashem for sereifah (death by burning), but ahavah I do not have, I have gained nothing.*

28 And those of the Olam Hazeh without mishpochah atzilah (noble birth) and those which are hanivzim* (the despised) Hashem chose, choosing the things that are not, in order to bring to naught the things that are. 29 His tachlis (purpose) is that no basar (fallen humanity sold under the power of slave master Chet Kadmon, Original Sin)* may boast before Hashem.

17 But HAMMIT HALLELYIT HALLEL ("The one boasting let him boast" in the L-rd);* 18 For it is not the one commending himself that has the haskama (approval), but it is the one to whom [Moshiach] Adoneinu gives the haskama.*

20 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was saying, It is the thing proceeding out of the ben Adam that makes him tameh. 21 For from within the lev of the ben Adam comes evil cravings and machshavot: then zenunim (fornications), gneyvot (thefts), retzichot (murders), 22 Niufim (adulteries), chamdanut (greediness), rishah (wickedness), nechalim (scheming deceitfulness), zimmah (lewdness, sensuality), an ayin horo or roah ayin (an envious evil eye), lashon hora, gaavah (pride), and ivvelet (foolishness). 23 All these evil things proceed from within and make the ben Adam tameh.

10 By zadon (pride) cometh only contention,

but with the teachable is chochmah.

4 By anavah (humility) and the Yirat Hashem

are osher, and kavod, and chayyim.

17 Charge the oishirim in the Olam Hazeh not to walk in gaa’vah (pride) and high-mindedness, neither to put their tikvah (hope) in the uncertainty of their osher but in Hashem who richly grants us all things for enjoyment.

7 But Hashem said unto Shmuel, Look not on his mareh (appearance), or on the height of his stature; because I have rejected him; for Hashem seeth not as HaAdam seeth; for HaAdam looketh at the einayim (eyes, outward form); Hashem looketh at the lev.

3 Talk no more so exceeding proudly;

let not atak (insolence) come out of your mouth;

for Hashem is El De’ot (a G-d who intensively knows),

and by Him alilot (actions) are weighed.

2 For all those things hath Mine hand made,

and so came they all into being,

saith Hashem;

but to this man will I look,

even to him that is oni and of a contrite ruach,

and trembleth at My Devar.

11 And the Melech Yisroel answered and said, Tell him, Let not khoger (one girding on)* boast himself as he that taketh off.

16 Think with a (spiritual) consensus in achdus harmony among yourselves. Do not cherish the thoughts of the ba’al gaavah (haughty person), but associate with the anaviyim (humble),* with the lowly am ha’aretz; do not be chachamim (wise ones) in your own estimation.*

22 But the p’ri of the Ruach HaKodesh is ahavah (agape), simcha (joy), shalom (peace), savlanut (patience), nedivut (generosity, kindness), chesed (loving-kindness), ne’emanut (faithfulness), 23 Anavah (meekness, shiflut, lowliness), shlitah atzmi (self-control)…would you not agree? — against these things there is no issur (proscription in the Torah).
