“But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.”
As it is, you boast in your arrogant schemes. All such boasting is evil — the assessment is unsparing: boasting (kauchaomai) in arrogant schemes (alazoneiai) constitutes kakon (wickedness/evil). The presumptuous planning without reference to God becomes a form of pride (alazoneia) that is fundamentally defiant of divine authority. To boast in human schemes is to claim mastery one does not possess.
