Proverbs 15:33

"The fear of Jehovah is the instruction of wisdom And before honor goeth humility."

"Humility is that low sweet root from which all the heavenly virtue shoot."[35] "Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time" (1 Peter 5:6). The Magnificat has the precious lines, "He hath put down princes from their thrones, and hath exalted them of low degree" (Luke 1:52). The glorious Head of our holy religion washes the disciples' feet.
