Rashi, on Prov 16:5
Rashi · 1040–1105
Prov 16:5 · Douay-Rheims
“Every proud man is an abomination to the Lord: though hand should be joined to hand, he is not innocent. The beginning of a good way is to do justice; and this is more acceptable with God, than to offer sacrifices.”
On this verse:
“hand to hand he will not go unpunished From hand to hand the punishment for his haughtiness will come to him.”
