SCRIPTURE

"Lift not up your horn on high; Speak not with a stiff neck." — Psalms 75:5 (ASV)

Lift not up your horn on high
Or "against the most High" {q}; as the little horn, or the beast with ten horns, antichrist, does, whose look is more stout than his fellows, and opens his mouth in blasphemy against God, his name, his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven, (Daniel 7:8Daniel 7:20) (Revelation 18:1Revelation 18:6) ,

speak [not with] a stiff neck ;
arrogantly, proudly, and haughtily: or "hard things with a neck" F18 ; hard speeches against Christ and his people with an outstretched neck, in an imperious and insolent manner; for the righteous Judge will convince such of their hard speeches, and condemn them for them; (Jude 1:14Jude 1:15) .
