Chap. IIII.
By concupiscence and loue of this vvorld, vve are made enemies to God: but vve should rather
humble vs to him, punishing our selues for our sinnes. 11 Against detraction, and rash
iudging. 13 To remember alvvaies the vncertentie of our life.
-- --
1 From vvhence are vvarres & contentions
among you? Are they not hereof?
of your concupiscences vvhich vvarre
in your members?
2 You couet: and
haue not. you kil, & enuie: and can not
obtaine. you contend and vvarre: and
you haue not, because you aske not.
3 You aske, and receiue not: because
you aske amisse: that you may consume it on your c&obar;cupiscences.
4 Aduouterers, know you not that the note frendship
of this vvorld, is the enemie of God? Vvhosoeuer therfore
vvil be a frende of this vvorld: is made an enemie of God.
5 Or do you thinke that the Scripture saieth in vaine: To enuie
doth the spirit couet vvhich dvvelleth in you?
6 And note giueth greater
grace. For the which cause it saith, God resisteth the proud, & giueth
grace to the humble. note
7 Be subiect therfore to God, but resist the Deuil, and he
vvil flee from you.
8 noteApproche to God, & he vvil approche
to you. Cleanse your handes, ye sinners: and09Q1428 purifie your
hartes, ye double of minde.
9 Be miserable, and mourne, &
vveepe: let your laughter be turned into mourning: and ioy,
into sorovv.
10 noteBe humbled in the sight of our lord, and he
vvil exalt you.
11 note noteDetracte not one fr&obar; an other my brethr&ebar;.
He that detracteth from his brother, or he that iudgeth his
brother, detracteth from the Law, and iudgeth the Law. But if
thou iudge the Lavv, thou art not a doer of the Lavv, but a
iudge.
12 For there is one lavv-maker, and iudge that can destroy
and deliuer.
13 But thou, note vvhat art thou that iudgest
thy neighbour?
13 Behold novv you that say, To day or to morovv vve
vvil goe into that citie, and there certes vvil spend a yere, and
vvil traficke, and make our gaine (
14 vvho are ignor&abar;t vvhat
shal be on the morovv. For vvhat is your life? It is a vapour
appearing for a litle vvhile, and aftervvard it shal vanish
avvay)
15 for that you should say, note If our Lord vvil: and,
If vve shal liue, vve vvil doe this or that.
16 But novv you
reioyce in your arrogancies. Al such reioycing, is vvicked.
17 To one therfore knovving to doe good, and not doing it:
to him it is sinne.
