Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth; He shall maintain his cause in judgment.
For he shall never be moved; The righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance.
Surely he scoffeth at the scoffers; But he giveth grace unto the lowly.
For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.
For he hath looked upon the low estate of his handmaid: For behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
But he giveth more grace. Wherefore (the scripture) saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble.
Likewise, ye younger, be subject unto the elder. Yea, all of you gird yourselves with humility, to serve one another: for God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble.
