What
is the source
of quarrels
and conflicts
among
you? Is not the source
your pleasures
that wage war
in your members?
2
You lust
and do not have;
so you commit murder.
You are envious
and cannot
obtain;
so you fight
and quarrel.
You do not have
because
you do not ask.
3
You ask
and do not receive,
because
you ask
with wrong motives,
so
that you may spend
it on your pleasures.
4
You adulteresses,
do you not know
that friendship
with the world
is hostility
toward God?
Therefore
whoever
wishes
to be a friend
of the world
makes
himself an enemy
of God.
5
Or
do you think
that the Scripture
speaks
to no purpose:
"He jealously
desires
the Spirit
which
He has made to dwell
in us"?
6
But He gives
a greater
grace.
Therefore
it says,
"GOD
IS OPPOSED
TO THE PROUD,
BUT GIVES
GRACE
TO THE HUMBLE."
7
Submit
therefore
to God.
Resist
the devil
and he will flee
from you.
8
Draw
near
to God
and He will draw
near
to you. Cleanse
your hands,
you sinners;
and purify
your hearts,
you double-minded.
9
Be miserable
and mourn
and weep;
let your laughter
be turned
into mourning
and your joy
to gloom.
10
Humble
yourselves in the presence
of the Lord,
and He will exalt
you.
11
Do not speak
against
one another,
brethren.
He who
speaks
against
a brother
or
judges
his brother,
speaks
against
the law
and
judges
the law
;
but if
you judge
the law
,
you are not a doer
of
the law
but a judge
of it.
12
There is only one
Lawgiver
and Judge,
the One who is able
to save
and to destroy;
but who
are you who judge
your neighbor?
13
Come
now,
you who say,
"Today
or
tom
or
row
we will go
to such and such
a city,
and spend
a year
there
and engage in business
and make
a profit."
14
Yet
you do not know
what
your life
will be like tomorrow.
You are just a vapor
that appears
for a little while
and then
vanishes away.
15
Instead,
you ought to say,
"If
the Lord
wills,
we will live
and also
do
this
or
that."
16
But as it is, you boast
in your arrogance;
all
such
boasting
is evil.
17
Therefore,
to one who knows
the right thing
to do
and does not do
it, to him it is sin.
