God will lift up the man who humbles himself before Him and places his life in His hands but He will destroy the proud man who takes credit for what the Lord has done. Without Jesus we are nothing but a vapor.
God hates pride and arrogance.
The soul of the haughty Babylonians is not right in God’s eyes. They will soon experience divine judgment. Faithlife Bible.

The proud refers to the Babylonians, who exalted themselves and boasted of their conquests and power. True righteousness before God is linked to genuine faith in God. A proud person relies on self, power, position, and accomplishment; a righteous person relies on the Lord. NKJ Bible.
Habakkuk 2:4 (NKJV)
4 “Behold the proud,
His soul is not upright in him;
But the just shall live by his faith.
Galatians 3:11 (NKJV)
11 But that no one is justified by the law in the sight of God is evident, for “the just shall live by faith.”
Romans 1:17 (NKJV)
17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”
