That it offends the gods is what the third choral ode says about pride in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the choral ode identifies arrogance, insolence and pride as objectionable in humans. The chorus insists that the three serve to advance one person at the expense of others. The members maintain that all three precede a divinely orchestrated fall.

This is usually known as Beethoven's Ode to Joy, 4th movement of his 9th, or "Choral" Symphony.
The music commonly known as "Ode to Joy" originally came from the fourth movement of Beethoven's Symphony no. 9 in D Minor, also known as the "Choral Symphony" because it was the first to incorporate voice as one of the instruments. Beethoven wrote the music but not the words. Ode to Joy was actually a poem written as An die Freude, by Friedrich Schiller in 1785.
