Look at the proud!
They trust in theirselves, and their lives are crooked.
But the righteous will live by their.
faithfulness to God.
Wealth is treacherous,
And the arrogant are never at rest.
They open their mouths as wide as the grave,
And like death, they are never satisfied.
In their greed they have gathered up many nations
And swallowed many peoples.
- Habakkuk 2:4-5
Pride and greed are killers that sneak into the unexpected areas of our lives. So insidious are their ways, we are often caught defending that which is separating us from God.
