"Thus saith the Lord, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: but let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth Me, 70 that I am the Lord which exercise loving-kindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the Lord." Jeremiah 9:23, 24. "I will praise the name of God, . . . And will magnify Him with thanksgiving." "Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power." "I will praise Thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: And I will glorify Thy name forevermore." "O magnify the Lord with me, And let us exalt His name together." Psalm 69:30; Revelation 4:11; Psalms 86:12; 34:3. | |

"Så siger Herren: Den vise rose sig ikke af sin visdom, den stærke ikke af sin styrke, den rige ikke af sin rigdom; men den, som vil rose sig, skal rose sig af, at han har forstand til at kende mig, at jeg, Herren, øver miskundhed, ret og retfærdighed på jorden; thi i sådanne har jeg behag, lyder det fra Herren." Jer. 9,23-24. |
