¹ From whence [come] wars and fightings among you? [come they] not hence, [even] from 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? whoever 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 to the humble.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 will 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 judgest 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 Come 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 [will be] on the morrow: For what [is] your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.¹⁵ Instead of 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.
