 4:1  From whence [come] wars and fightings among you? [come
they] not hence, [even] of your lusts that war in your members?
 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.
 4:3  Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye
may consume [it] upon your lusts.
 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.
 4:5  Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit
that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?
 4:6  But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God
resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.
 4:7  Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and
he will flee from you.
 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.
 4:9  Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be
turned to mourning, and [your] joy to heaviness.
 4:10  Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall
lift you up.
 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.
 4:12  There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to
destroy: who art thou that judgest another?
 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:
 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.
 4:15  For that ye [ought] to say, If the Lord will, we shall
live, and do this, or that.
 4:16  But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing
is evil.
 4:17  Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth [it]
not, to him it is sin.
