2 Has presumptuousness come? Then dishonor will come;+ but wisdom is with the modest ones.+

23 But against the Lord of the heavens* you exalted yourself,+ and they brought before you even the vessels of his house;+ and you yourself and your grandees, your concubines and your secondary wives have been drinking wine from them, and you have praised mere gods* of silver and of gold, copper, iron, wood and stone,+ that are beholding nothing or hearing nothing or knowing nothing;+ but the God* in whose hand your breath* is+ and to whom all your ways belong+ you have not glorified.+

23 Instantly the angel of Jehovah* struck him,+ because he did not give the glory to God;+ and he became eaten up with worms and expired.
