Pride

Daniel 4:37 - Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, for all his works are right and his ways are just; and those who walk in pride he is able to humble.


Daniel 5:1-2 - King Belshazzar made a great feast for a thousand of his lords and drank wine in front of the thousand. Belshazzar, when he tasted the wine, commanded that the vessels of gold and of silver that Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple in Jerusalem be brought, that the king and his lords, his wives, and his concubines might drink from them.

Psalm 119:21 - You rebuke the insolent, accursed ones, who wander from your commandments.

Daniel 1:2 - And the Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, with some of the vessels of the house of God. And he brought them to the land of Shinar, to the house of his god, and placed the vessels in the treasury of his god.

Application:

· The Lord is able to humble the proud and to exalt the humble
· The insolent are those who are law to themselves
· Judah was exiled to Babylonia because she disobeyed God’s Word
