in pride.
Daniel 5:20-23
5:20 And when his mind
became arrogant
and his spirit filled with pride, he was deposed from his royal throne and his honor was removed from him.
5:21 He was driven from human society, his mind
was changed to that of an animal, he lived
with the wild donkeys, he was fed grass like oxen, and his body became damp with the dew of the sky, until he came to understand that the most high God rules over human kingdoms, and he appoints over them whomever he wishes.
5:22 “But you, his son Belshazzar, have not humbled yourself, although you knew all this.
5:23 Instead, you have exalted yourself against the Lord of heaven. You brought before you the vessels from his temple, and you and your nobles, together with your wives and concubines, drank wine from them. You praised the gods of silver, gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone – gods that cannot see or hear or comprehend! But you have not glorified the God who has in his control your very breath and all your ways!
Obadiah 1:3
1:3 Your presumptuous heart has deceived you –
you who reside in the safety of the rocky cliffs,
whose home is high in the mountains.
You think to yourself,
‘No one can bring me down to the ground!’

“Arise! Let us make war against Edom!”
Obadiah 1:5
1:5 “If thieves came to rob you during the night,
they would steal only as much as they wanted!
If grape pickers came to harvest your vineyards,
they would leave some behind for the poor!
But you will be totally destroyed!
