Lord, my heart isn’t proud. My eyes aren’t proud either. I don’t concern myself with important matters. I don’t concern myself with things that are too wonderful for me.

耶和华啊，我的心不狂傲，我的眼不高大；重大和测不透的事，我也不敢行。

我心如小鳥。毛羽未全豐。不作高飛想。依依幽谷中。

My heart is not proud, Lord, my eyes are not haughty; I do not concern myself with great matters or things too wonderful for me.

O Lord, my heart is not lifted up; my eyes are not raised too high; I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me.

Lord, my heart is not proud; my eyes are not haughty. I don’t concern myself with matters too great or too awesome for me to grasp.

LORD, my heart is not proud; my eyes are not haughty. I do not get involved with things too great or too wondrous for me.

Lord, my heart is not proud, nor my eyes arrogant; Nor do I involve myself in great matters, Or in things too difficult for me.

Agree with one another. Don’t be proud. Be willing to be a friend of people who aren’t considered important. Don’t think that you are better than others.

You asked me,‘ Who do you think you are to disagree with my plans? You do not know what you are talking about.’ I spoke about things I didn’t completely understand. I talked about things that were too wonderful for me to know.

I will get rid of anyone who tells lies about their neighbor in secret. I won’t put up with anyone whose eyes and heart are proud.

So should you seek great things for yourself? Do not seek them. I will bring trouble on everyone,” announces the Lord.“ But no matter where you go, I will let you escape with your life.” ’ ”

I’m amazed at how well you know me. It’s more than I can understand.

We were not expecting people to praise us. We were not looking for praise from you or anyone else. Yet as Christ’s apostles, we could have used our authority over you.Instead, we were like young children when we were with you. As a mother feeds and cares for her little children,

Amos answered Amaziah,“ I was not a prophet. I wasn’t even the son of a prophet. I was a shepherd. I also took care of sycamore- fig trees.But the Lord took me away from taking care of the flock. He said to me,‘ Go. Prophesy to my people Israel.’

Become my servants and learn from me. I am gentle and free of pride. You will find rest for your souls.

You are witnesses of how we lived among you believers. God is also a witness that we were holy and godly and without blame.

I served the Lord with tears and without pride. I served him when I was greatly tested. I was tested by the evil plans of the Jews who disagreed with me.

I was very glad when they said to me,“ Let us go up to the house of the Lord.”

So Samuel got the animal horn that was filled with olive oil. He anointed David in front of his brothers. From that day on, the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully on David. Samuel went back to Ramah.

Moses was a very humble man. In fact, he was more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth.

He chose his servant David. He took him from the sheep pens.He brought him from tending sheep to be the shepherd of his people Jacob. He made him the shepherd of Israel, his special people.David cared for them with a faithful and honest heart. With skilled hands he led them.

I haven’t run away from being the shepherd of your people. You know I haven’t wanted the day of Jerusalem’s fall to come. You are aware of every word that comes from my lips.

David’s oldest brother Eliab heard him speaking with the men. So Eliab became very angry with him. Eliab asked David,“ Why have you come down here? Who is taking care of those few sheep in the desert for you? I know how proud you are. I know how evil your heart is. The only reason you came down here was to watch the battle.”“ What have I done now?” said David.“ Can’t I even speak?”

How very rich are God’s wisdom and knowledge! How he judges is more than we can understand! The way he deals with people is more than we can know!

Here is what Israel should say. Suppose the Lord had not been on our side.

But David went back and forth from Saul’s camp to Bethlehem. He went to Bethlehem to take care of his father’s sheep.

Saul sent a message to Jesse. Saul said,“ Let David stay here. I want him to serve me. I’m pleased with him.”

He won’t think of himself as being better than his people are. He won’t turn away from the law. He won’t turn to the right or the left. Then he and his sons after him will rule over his kingdom in Israel for a long time.

Saul’s attendants spoke those very words to David. But David said,“ Do you think it’s a small thing to become the king’s son- in- law? I’m only a poor man. I’m not very well known.”

How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in peace!

One of the servants said,“ I’ve seen someone who knows how to play the harp. He is a son of Jesse from Bethlehem. He’s a brave man. He would make a good soldier. He’s a good speaker. He’s very handsome. And the Lord is with him.”
