'Humble' in the Bible

Though He scoffs at the scoffers and scorns the scorners,Yet He gives His grace [His undeserved favor] to the humble [those who give up self-importance].

Do this now, my son, and release yourself [from the obligation];Since you have come into the hand of your neighbor,Go humble yourself, and plead with your neighbor [to pay his debt and release you].

When pride comes [boiling up with an arrogant attitude of self-importance], then come dishonor and shame,But with the humble [the teachable who have been chiseled by trial and who have learned to walk humbly with God] there is wisdom and soundness of mind.

It is better to be humble in spirit with the lowlyThan to divide the spoil with the proud (haughty, arrogant).

A man’s pride and sense of self-importance will bring him down,But he who has a humble spirit will obtain honor.
