The New International Version Psalm 147
6 The LORD sustains the humble
but casts the wickedg to the ground.
He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way.
He mocks proud mockers
but shows favor to the humble and oppressed.
When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.
He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.
And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.
Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.
In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:
Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross!
Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
