James:4
lont@James:4:1 @ Whence wars and fightings among you? Do they not come hence, even from your lusts, which war in your members?
lont@James:4:2 @ You strongly desire, and have not; you kill, and are zealous, and can not obtain. You fight and war, but have not, because you ask not.
lont@James:4:3 @ You ask, and do not receive, because you ask wickedly, that you may spend upon your lusts.
lont@James:4:4 @ Adulterers, and adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity against God? Whosoever, therefore, will be a friend of the world, is counted an enemy of God.
lont@James:4:5 @ Do you think that the scripture speaks in vain? And does the spirit, who dwells in us, strongly incline to envy?
lont@James:4:6 @ «But he gives greater favor. For it says,» 'God resists the proud, but gives favor to the humble.'
lont@James:4:7 @ Therefore, be subject to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
lont@James:4:8 @ Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you men of two minds.
lont@James:4:9 @ Be exceedingly afflicted, and mourn, and weep; and let your laughter be turned into mourning, and your joy into sadness.
lont@James:4:10 @ Be humble in the presence of the Lord, and he will lift you up.
lont@James:4:11 @ He who speaks against his brother, and condemns his brother, speaks against the law, and condemns the law. But if you condemn the law, you are not a doer of the law, but a judge.
lont@James:4:12 @ There is one lawgiver, who is able to save, and to destroy. Who are you, that condemn another?
lont@James:4:13 @ Come, now, you who say, Today, or to-morrow, we will go to such a city, and will abide there one year, and traffic in merchandise, and get gain;
lont@James:4:14 @ who do not know what shall be to-morrow. For what is your life? It is, indeed, a smoke, which appears for a little while, and then vanishes away.
lont@James:4:15 @ Instead of which, you ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
lont@James:4:16 @ But now you boast in your proud speeches: all such boasting is evil.
lont@James:4:17 @ Wherefore, to him who know how to do good, and does it not, to him it is sin.
