역대하 17:6의 Quotation
וַיִּגְבַּ֥הּ לִבּ֖וֹ בְּדַרְכֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה וְע֗וֹד הֵסִ֛יר אֶת־הַבָּמ֥וֹת וְאֶת־הָאֲשֵׁרִ֖ים מִיהוּדָֽה׃ (פ)
저가 전심으로 여호와의 도를 행하여 산당과 아세라 목상들도 유다에서 제하였더라
Duties of the Heart
This kind of arrogance (aggrandizing) is not detrimental to submission and does not repel it. The verse says of Yehoshafat "And his heart was uplifted in the ways of the L-ord" (Divrei Hayamim II 17:6), just the opposite - such pride helps humility and increases his submission as written "In the wake of humility comes fear of the L-ord, riches, honor, and life" (Mishlei 22:4).
