1 | From whence
come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that
war in your members? | 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. | 3 | Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye
may consume it upon your lusts. | 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. | 5 | Do ye
think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth
to envy? | 6 | But he giveth
more grace. Wherefore he saith,
God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto
the humble.
Prov 3:34
1 Pet 5:5
| 7 | Submit
yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. |
8 | Draw nigh to God, and he
will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts,
ye double minded. | 9 | Be
afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and
your joy to heaviness. | 10 |
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up. |
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. |
12 | There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to
destroy: who art thou that judgest another? | 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: | 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. | 15 | For that ye ought to say, If the Lord
will, we shall live, and do this, or that. | 16 | But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such
rejoicing is evil. | 17 |
Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is
sin. |
