Chapter 24
The Ego

a
Those who tiptoe above others cannot stand firm

Those who are not still before God will not walk far
b

c
Those who glorify themselves will not shine

d
Those who vaunt their self-righteousness will not be distinguished

Those who praise themselves will have no merit

Those who boast about themselves will not last

Followers of God call such things leftover food and unnecessary
They are despised by everyone

Thus, those who live in the Spirit of God do not rely on them
