Proverbs 21:1-22 §

Haughty eyes and a proud heart, the lamp of the wicked, are sin.

Proverbs 21:4

Elsewhere the Bible tells us that God’s word is a lamp for our feet. The proverb tells us that pride is a lamp for the wicked. When I am led by my pride, it is no wonder I am led into wickedness.

Psalms 114 §

We skip rocks. God skips mountains (verse 4).

Psalms 115 §

… He is their help and their shield.

Psalms 114:9/10/11 (repeated)

Psalms 116 §

All we render to God (verse 12) cannot benefit him. The best we can do is “lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD” (verse 13).
