NASB: But He gives a greater grace. Therefore [it] says, "GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE." (NASB ©1995) GWT: But God shows us even more kindness. Scripture says, "God opposes arrogant people, but he is kind to humble people." (GOD'S WORD®) KJV: But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. ASV: But he giveth more grace. Wherefore the scripture'saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble. BBE: But he gives more grace. So that the Writings say, God is against the men of pride, but he gives grace to those who make themselves low before him. DBY: But he gives more grace. Wherefore he says, God sets himself against the proud, but gives grace to the lowly. WEY: But He gives more abundant grace, as is implied in His saying, "God sets Himself against the haughty, but to the lowly He gives grace." WBS: But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble. WEB: But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble." YLT: and greater grace he doth give, wherefore he saith, 'God against proud ones doth set Himself up, and to lowly ones He doth give grace?' | |
