1 Samuel 2:3
Do not boast so proudly, or let arrogance come from your mouth, for the Lord is a God who knows, and by Him actions are weighed.
Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
Note arrogancy: Heb. hard
“Don’t keep talking so exceedingly proudly. Don’t let arrogance come out of your mouth, for the Lord is a God of knowledge. By him actions are weighed.
Talk no more so exceeding proudly; Let not arrogancy come out of your mouth; For Jehovah is a God of knowledge, And by him actions are weighed.
