A man's pride shall bring him low: but honor shall uphold the humble in spirit.
All Commentaries on Proverbs 29:23 Go To Proverbs 29
Bede
AD 735
That we ourselves may become worthy of following in his footsteps and ascending to heaven, let us in the meantime become humble on earth for our own good, always mindful that, as Solomon says, “Humiliation follows the proud, and honor follows the humble in spirit.”
