Book 59 : JAMES - Chapter 004
004:001
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
004:002
Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may
consume it upon your lusts
004:003
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
004:004
Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that
dwelleth in us lusteth to envy
004:005
But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth
the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble
004:006
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he
will flee from you
004:007
Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your
hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded
004:008
Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned
to mourning, and your joy to heaviness
004:009
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift
you up
004:010
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
004:011
There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who
art thou that judgest another
004:012
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
004:013
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
004:014
For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and
do this, or that
004:015
But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is
evil
004:016
Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to
him it is sin
