JAS-4:1 From whence [come] wars and fightings among you? [come

they] not hence, [even] of your lusts that war in your members?

JAS-4:2 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.

JAS-4:3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye

may consume [it] upon your lusts.

JAS-4:4 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.

JAS-4:5 Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit

that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?

JAS-4:6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God

resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

JAS-4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil,

and he will flee from you.

JAS-4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse

[your] hands, [ye] sinners; and purify [your] hearts, [ye]

double minded.

JAS-4:9 Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be

turned to mourning, and [your] joy to heaviness.

JAS-4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he

shall lift you up.

JAS-4:11 Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that

speaketh evil of [his] brother, and judgeth his brother,

speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge

the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.

JAS-4:12 There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to

destroy: who art thou that judgest another?

JAS-4:13 Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go

into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell,

and get gain:

JAS-4:14 Whereas ye know not what [shall be] on the morrow. For

what [is] your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a

little time, and then vanisheth away.

JAS-4:15 For that ye [ought] to say, If the Lord will, we shall

live, and do this, or that.

JAS-4:16 But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such

rejoicing is evil.

JAS-4:17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth

[it] not, to him it is sin.
