12: ωστε ο δοκων εσταναι βλεπετω μη πεση— edit Textus Receptus
12: Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.- edit KJV text
12: Wherefore, he that thinketh himself to stand, let him take heed lest he fall.— edit Douay text


Wherefore. As the result of all these admonitions. Let this be the effect of all that we learn from the unhappy self-confidence of the Jews, to admonish us not to put reliance on our own strength.

That thinketh he standeth. That supposes himself to be firm in the love of God, and in the knowledge of his truth; that regards himself as secure, and that will be therefore disposed to rely on his own strength.

Take heed lest he fall. Into sin, idolatry, or any other form of iniquity.
