James 4:6-9 But he gives greater grace. Therefore it says, God is opposed to the arrogant, but gives grace to the lowly.

ACV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ But he gives greater grace. Therefore it says, God is opposed to the arrogant, but gives grace to the lowly. ⁷ Be subordinate therefore to God, but resist the devil and he will flee from you. ⁸ Approach God and he will approach you. Cleanse the hands, ye sinners, and purify the hearts, ye double-minded. ⁹ Be ye sorrowful, and mourn, and weep. Let your laughter be turned into mourning, and your joy into a downcast look.
