πεφυσιωμένων
physióō
who are puffed up
To puff up, to inflate, primarily in the physical sense of swelling or blowing up; figuratively, to cause someone (or oneself) to become conceited, arrogant, or overly proud. The core meaning involves the idea of being filled with air or appearing swollen, and by extension, developing an inflated sense of one's self-importance or status. In the New Testament and related Koine sources, the term is most often used metaphorically for pride, arrogance, or an exaggerated sense of self.
