James 4:3-4 You make your request but you do not get it, because your request has been wrongly made, desiring the thing only so that you may make use of it for your pleasure.

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ You make your request but you do not get it, because your request has been wrongly made, desiring the thing only so that you may make use of it for your pleasure. ⁴ O you who are false to God, do you not see that the friends of this world are not God's friends? Every man desiring to be a friend of this world makes himself a hater of God.
