James 4:1-10

UKJV(i) 1 From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not behind, even of your lusts that war in your members? 2 All of you lust, and have not: all of you kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: all of you fight and war, yet all of you have not, because all of you ask not. 3 All of you ask, and receive not, because all of you ask amiss, that all of you may consume it upon your lusts. 4 All of you adulterers and adulteresses, know all of you not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. 5 Do all of you think that the scripture says in vain, The spirit (o. pneuma) that dwells in us lusts to envy? 6 But he gives more grace. Wherefore he says, God resists the proud, but gives grace unto the humble. 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, all of you sinners; and purify your hearts, all of you double minded. 9 Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. 10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
