CHAP. IV.
1 We are to strive against covetousness, 4 intemperance,
5 pride, 11 detraction and rash
judgment of others: 13 and not to be confident
in the good success of worldly business;
but mindful ever of the uncertainty of this
life, to commit ourselves and all our affairs
to God's providence.
1 From whence come wars and note fightings
among you? come they not
hence, even from your note lusts that war in
your members?
2 Ye lust and have not: ye kill, and
-- --
A. D. 60.
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 note 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 note to envy?
6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore
he saith, note God resisteth the proud,
but giveth grace to the humble.
7 Submit yourselves therefore to God.
noteResist 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 noteHumble 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 law-giver, who is able
to save, and to destroy: note who art thou
that judgest another?
13 noteCome 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?
noteIt is even a vapor, that appeareth for a
little time, and then vanisheth away.
15 Instead of that ye ought to say, note 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.
