vaunt

And the LORD said unto Gideon, The people that are with thee are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, Mine own hand hath saved me..耶和华对基甸说，跟随你的人过多，我不能将米甸人交在他们手中，免得以色列人向我夸大，说，是我们自己的手救了我们。

No matter how people vaunt an own great activity, they are usually just the outcomes of opportunity, rather than a great intention of result..不管人们怎样夸耀自己的伟大行动，它们常常只是机遇的产物，而非一个伟大意向的结果。
