James 4:6-9 But He gives a greater spiritual blessing. He says, "God opposes haughty people but blesses humble people."

Williams⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ But He gives a greater spiritual blessing. He says, "God opposes haughty people but blesses humble people." ⁷ So then, submit to God. Resist the devil and he will fly from you. ⁸ Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Get your hands clean, you sinners. Get your hearts purified, you double-minded. ⁹ Be miserable, mourn ... and weep aloud. Let your laughter be turned to grief and your joy to gloom.
