29 verses in the King James Version (KJV) and the Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Humility isn't thinking poorly of yourself; it's thinking of yourself less, and of others more. The Bible's clearest picture of it is Jesus, who washed his followers' feet and came to serve rather than be served. These verses show that humility is the doorway to wisdom, grace, and genuine relationships. They are a quiet counterweight to a world that rewards self-promotion. Read them when you want to grow in kindness and in the freedom of not needing to be first.
