Luke 14:11

For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but ¹  the one who humbles ²  himself will be exalted.”

For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."

"For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."

For the proud will be humbled, but the humble will be honored."

What I'm saying is, If you walk around with your nose in the air, you're going to end up flat on your face. But if you're content to be simply yourself, you will become more than yourself."

For every man who gives himself a high place will be put down, but he who takes a low place will be lifted up.

For all who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted."

"For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."

For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but ¹  the one who humbles ²  himself will be exalted.”

¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context, which involves the reversal of expected roles.

² sn The point of the statement the one who humbles himself will be exalted is humility and the reversal imagery used to underline it is common: Luke 1:52-53; 6:21; 10:15; 18:14.
