Psalm 131:1-2

My heart is not proud, O Lord, my eyes are not haughty; I do not concern myself with great matters or things too wonderful for me. But I have stilled and quieted my soul; like a weaned child with its mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me.

Psalm 30:1, 4-5

I will exalt You, O Lord, for You lifted me out of the depths and did not let my enemies gloat over me. Sing to the Lord, you saints of His; praise His holy name. For His anger lasts only a moment, but His favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.

Proverbs 21:3

To do what is right and just is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.

2 Corinthians 4:17-18
