Upon

Yahweh of hosts has planned it: to defile [the] pride of all glory, to humble all [the] honored ones of [the] earth.

There are six [things] Yahweh hates, and seven [things are] abominations of his soul:

An abomination of Yahweh [are] all who are arrogant of heart; {rest assured}, he will not go unpunished.

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."

But {when} his heart became arrogant and his spirit became hard [so as] to act proudly, he was deposed from the throne of his kingdom and the glory {was taken away from him}.

And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.

For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted."

But he gives greater grace. Therefore it says, "God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

General references

Before destruction [comes] pride, and before a fall, a haughty spirit.

I will cause mountains and hills to dry up, and I will cause all their herbage to wither; and I will make rivers like islands, and I will cause pools to dry up.

A mongrel people will dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut down the pride of [the] Philistines.

Look! A day [is] coming for Yahweh, when your plunder will be divided in your midst.
