Bhagavad Gita Chapter 16, Verse 4

दम्भो दर्पोऽभिमानश्च क्रोधः पारुष्यमेव च | अज्ञानं चाभिजातस्य पार्थ सम्पदमासुरीम् ||

dambho darpo 'bhimānaś ca krodhaḥ pāruṣyam eva ca ajñānaṁ cābhijātasya pārtha sampadam āsurīm

Hypocrisy, arrogance, self-conceit, anger, harshness, and ignorance—these, O Arjuna, are the demonic qualities of one born with demonic nature.

Krishna now contrasts the divine qualities with demonic qualities (āsuri sampad). 'Dambhaḥ'—hypocrisy, pretending to be what you're not, showing one face while hiding another. 'Darpaḥ'—arrogance, inflated sense of self-importance. 'Abhimānaḥ'—self-conceit, excessive pride in your own abilities. 'Krodhaḥ'—anger, reactive hostility. 'Pāruṣyam'—harshness, cruelty in speech and action. 'Ajñānam'—ignorance, not understanding the true nature of reality. These qualities form the foundation of demonic nature: when you're driven by hypocrisy, arrogance, and anger, you create suffering for yourself and others. Krishna is establishing the contrast: divine qualities lead to liberation, demonic qualities lead to bondage.
