Matthew 23:8-12

8But 1do not be called 2Rabbi; for One is your Teacher, and you are all brothers. 9Do not call anyone on earth your father; for 3One is your Father, He who is in heaven. 10Do not be called 4leaders; for One is your Leader, that is, Christ. 115But the greatest among you shall be your servant. 126Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled; and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted.
