James 4:1-4

Rotherham(i) 1 Whence wars and whence fightings among you? are they not from hence––due to your pleasures which are taking the field in your members? 2 Ye covet––and have not, ye commit murder, and are jealous––and cannot obtain,––ye fight and war. Ye have not––because ye do not really ask, 3 Ye ask and receive not, because that, basely, ye ask, in order that, in your pleasures, ye may spend [it]. 4 Adulteresses! Know ye not that, the friendship of the world, is, enmity to God? Whosoever, therefore, is minded to be, a friend, of the world, an enemy of God, doth constitute himself.
