JAMES 4:1-10
FROM
WHENCE
COME WARS
AND
FIGHTINGS
AMONG YOU?
COME
THEY NOT HENCE,
EVEN OF YOUR
LUST THAT WAR
IN YOUR MEMBERS?
YE LUST,
AND
HAVE NOT:
YE KILL,
AND
DESIRE TO HAVE,
AND
CANNOT OBTAIN:
YE FIGHT AND WAR,
YET YE HAVE NOT,
BECAUSE YE ASK NOT.
YE ASK, AND RECEIVE NOT,
BECAUSE YE ASK AMISS,
THAT YE
MAY CONSUME IT
UPON YOUR LUSTS.
YE ADULTERERS
AND
ADULTERESSES,
KNOW YE NOT
THAT
THE FRIENDSHIP
OF
THE WORLD IS ENMITY
WITH
GOD?
WHOSOEVER
THEREFORE
WILL BE
A FRIEND OF THE WORLD
IS
THE ENEMY OF GOD.
DO YE THINK
THAT
THE SCRIPTURE
SAITH IN VAIN,
THE SPIRIT THAT
DWELLETH IN US
LUSTETH
TO ENVY?
BUT
HE GIVETH MORE GRACE.
WHEREFORE HE SAITH,
GOD RESISTETH THE PROUD,
BUT
GIVETH
GRACE UNTO THE HUMBLE.
SUBMIT YOURSELF
THEREFORE TO GOD.
RESIST THE DEVIL,
AND
HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU.
DRAW NIGH TO GOD,
AND
HE WILL DRAW NIGH TO YOU.
CLEANSE YOUR HANDS,
YE SINNERS;
AND
PURIFY YOUR HEARTS,
YE DOUBLE MINDED.
BE AFFLICTED,
AND
MOURN,
AND
WEEP:
LET YOUR LAUGHTER
BE TURNED
TO MOURNING,
AND
YOUR JOY TO HEAVINESS.
HUMBLE YOURSELVES
IN THE
SIGHT OF THE LORD,
AND
HE SHALL LIFT YOU UP.
LOVE
