They pour out their arrogant
words; all the evildoers boast.
(Psalm 94:4)
ESV
Do not boast about tomorrow, for
you do not know what a day may
bring.
(Proverbs 27:1)
ESV
Shall the axe boast over him who
hews with it, or the saw magnify
itself against him who wields it?
As if a rod should wield him who
lifts it, or as if a staff should
lift him who is not wood!
(Isaiah 10:15)
ESV
Thus says the
Lord: “Let not the wise man
boast in his wisdom, let not the
mighty man boast in his might, let
not the rich man boast in his
riches,
(Jeremiah 9:23)
ESV
For who sees anything different in
you? What do you have that you did
not receive? If then you received
it, why do you boast as if you did
not receive it?
(1 Corinthians 4:7)
ESV
If I must boast, I will boast of
the things that show my weakness.
(2 Corinthians 11:30)
ESV
For by grace you have been saved
through faith. And this is not
your own doing; it is the gift of
God, not a result of works, so
that no one may boast.
(Ephesians 2:8,9)
ESV
But understand this, that in the
last days there will come times of
difficulty. For people will be
lovers of self, lovers of money,
proud, arrogant, abusive,
disobedient to their parents,
ungrateful, unholy, heartless,
unappeasable, slanderous, without
self-control, brutal, not loving
good, treacherous, reckless,
swollen with conceit, lovers of
pleasure rather than lovers of
God, having the appearance of
godliness, but denying its power.
Avoid such people.
(2 Timothy 3:1-5)
ESV
So also the tongue is a small
member, yet it boasts of great
things. How great a forest is set
ablaze by such a small fire!
(James 3:5)
ESV
Come now, you who say, “Today or
tomorrow we will go into such and
such a town and spend a year there
and trade and make a profit”— yet
you do not know what tomorrow will
bring. What is your life? For you
are a mist that appears for a
little time and then vanishes.
Instead you ought to say, “If the
Lord wills, we will live and do
this or that.” As it is, you boast
in your arrogance. All such
boasting is evil.
(James 4:13-16)
ESV
