"Extol not thyself in the thoughts of thy soul like a bull: lest thy strength be quashed by folly,"
Nel contesto
1Instead of a friend become not an enemy to thy neighbour: for an evil man shall inherit reproach and shame, so shall every sinner that is envious and double tongued.
2Extol not thyself in the thoughts of thy soul like a bull: lest thy strength be quashed by folly,
3And it eat up thy leaves, and destroy thy fruit: and thou be left as a dry tree in the wilderness.
4For a wicked soul shall destroy him that hath it, and maketh him to be a joy to his enemies, and shall lead him into the lot of the wicked.
