James 4:1
|
|
Whence come wars and whence come fightings among
you? come they not hence, even of your pleasures that war in your members? |
|
|
|
James 4:2
|
|
Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and covet, and
cannot obtain: ye fight and war; ye have not, because ye ask not. |
|
|
|
James 4:3
|
|
Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss,
that ye may spend it in your pleasures. |
|
|
|
James 4:4
|
|
Ye
adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God?
Whosoever therefore would be a friend of the world maketh himself an enemy of
God. |
|
|
|
James 4:5
|
|
Or think ye that the scripture speaketh in vain?
Doth the spirit which he made to dwell in us long unto envying? |
|
|
|
James 4:6
|
|
But he giveth more grace. Wherefore the scripture
saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble. |
|
|
|
James 4:7
|
|
Be subject therefore unto God; but resist the
devil, and he will flee from you. |
|
|
|
James 4:8
|
|
Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you.
Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye doubleminded. |
|
|
|
James 4:9
|
|
Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your
laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. |
|
|
|
James 4:10
|
|
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord,
and he shall exalt you. |
|
|
|
James 4:11
|
|
Speak not one against another, brethren. He
that speaketh against a brother, or judgeth his brother, speaketh against the
law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judgest the law, thou art not a doer of
the law, but a judge. |
|
|
|
James 4:12
|
|
One only is the lawgiver and judge, even he
who is able to save and to destroy: but who art thou that judgest thy neighbor? |
|
|
|
James 4:13
|
|
Come now, ye that say, To-day or to-morrow we
will go into this city, and spend a year there, and trade, and get gain: |
|
|
|
James 4:14
|
|
whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow.
What is your life? For ye are a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then
vanisheth away. |
|
|
|
James 4:15
|
|
For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will,
we shall both live, and do this or that. |
|
|
|
James 4:16
|
|
But now ye glory in your vauntings: all such
glorying is evil. |
|
|
|
James 4:17
|
|
To him therefore that knoweth to do good, and
doeth it not, to him it is sin. |
