SUBJUGATING AND RESISTING
\ul0 Whence are wars and strifes among you? Are they not from your pleasures warring in your members? 2 You pant and have not: you murder and are jealous and unable to obtain: you strive and war: and you still have not because you ask not. 3 You ask and take not because you ask evily to spend it in your pleasures. 4 You adulterers and adulteresses, know you not that the friendship of the cosmos is enmity with Elohim? So whoever wills to be a friend of the cosmos is seated - an enemy of Elohim. 5 Or think you that the scripture words in vain, The spirit dwelling in us yearns to envy? 6 But he gives greater charism. So he words, Elohim opposes the proud and gives charism to the humble. 7 So subjugate yourselves to Elohim; resist Diabolos and he flees from you; 8 approach Elohim and he approaches you; purify your hands, sinners; and hallow your hearts, double souled; 9 be miserable and mourn and weep; overturn your laughter to mourning and your cheer to sadness; 10 humble yourselves in the sight of Yah Veh and he exalts you. 11 Slander not one another, brothers. whoever slanders his brother and judges his brother slanders the torah and judges the torah: but if you judge the torah, you are not a doer of the torah, but a judge. 12 There is one torahsetter - able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another? 13 Come now, you who word, Today or tomorrow we go to such a city and deal one year and merchandise and gain: 14 whereas you understand not the morrow. For what is your life? It is indeed a vapour - manifests for a little - and then disappears. 15 Instead word thus, Whenever Adonay wills, we live and do this or that. 16 And now you boast in your boastings: all such boasting is evil. 17 So, to him who knows to do good, and does not, to him it is sin.
