But the man of wealth, that he is made low; because like the flower of the grass he will come to his end.

1 Corinthians 1:26
For you see God's design for you, my brothers, that he has not taken a great number of the wise after the flesh, not the strong, not the noble:
1 Corinthians 1:27

So that no flesh might have glory before God.

Let no man say when he is tested, I am tested by God; for it is not possible for God to be tested by evil, and he himself puts no man to such a test:
James 1:19
You have knowledge of this, dear brothers. But let every man be quick in hearing, slow in words, slow to get angry;

If a brother or a sister is without clothing and in need of the day's food,

James 3:1

James 4:11
