Bible verses about "conceit" | Moffatt

²² They claimed to be wise, but they have become fools;

¹ So by all the stimulus of Christ, by every incentive of love, by all your participation in the Spirit, by all your affectionate tenderness, ² I pray you to give me the utter joy of knowing you are living in harmony, with the same feelings of love, with one heart and soul, ³ never acting for private ends or from vanity, but humbly considering each other the better man, ⁴ and each with an eye to the interests of others as well as to his own. ⁵ Treat one another with the same spirit as you experience in Christ Jesus. ⁶ Though he was divine by nature, he did not set store upon equality with God ⁷ but emptied himself by taking the nature of a servant; born in human guise ⁸ and appearing in human form, he humbly stooped in his obedience even to die, and to die upon the cross. ⁹ Therefore God raised him high and conferred on him a Name above all names, ¹⁰ so that before the Name of Jesus every knee should bend in heaven, on earth, and underneath the earth, ¹¹ and every tongue confess that 'Jesus Christ is Lord,' to the glory of God the Father.

¹⁶ Keep in harmony with one another; instead of being ambitious, associate with humble folk; never be self-conceited.
