Bible Verses about Selfishness

Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves.Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.
Don’t be concerned for your own good but for the good of others.Let no one seek his own, but each one the other’s well-being.
Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged.Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil.
For wherever there is jealousy and selfish ambition, there you will find disorder and evil of every kind.For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there.
The generous will prosper; those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed.The generous soul will be made rich, And he who waters will also be watered himself.
Fools have no interest in understanding; they only want to air their own opinions.A fool has no delight in understanding, But in expressing his own heart.
We should help others do what is right and build them up in the Lord.Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, leading to edification.
The second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.
Stop deceiving yourselves. If you think you are wise by this world’s standards, you need to become a fool to be truly wise.Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.
Give me an eagerness for your laws rather than a love for money!Incline my heart to Your testimonies, And not to covetousness.
My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God.But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.
Then, calling the crowd to join his disciples, he said, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me.”When He had called the people to Himself, with His disciples also, He said to them, “Whoever desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.”
