Proverbs 16:5

Everyone that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though they join hand in hand, none shall be unpunished.
All Commentaries on Proverbs 16:5 Go To Proverbs 16

John Chrysostom

AD 407
Nothing so estranges from the mercy of God and gives over to the fire of hell as the tyranny of pride. If we possess this within us, all our life becomes impure, even if we practice chastity, virginity, fasting, prayer, almsgiving, or any virtue whatsoever. “Every proud man,” Scripture says, “is an abomination to the Lord.” Therefore, let us check this puffing up of the soul, and let us cut out this tumor, if we wish to be pure and be rid of the punishment prepared for the devil.
