1 Where do wars and fightings among you come from? Donโ€™t they come from your pleasures that war in your members?

2 You lust, and donโ€™t have. You murder and covet, and canโ€™t obtain. You fight and make war. You donโ€™t have, because you donโ€™t ask.

3 You ask, and donโ€™t receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it for your pleasures.

4 You adulterers and adulteresses, donโ€™t you know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

5 Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, โ€œThe Spirit who lives in us yearns jealouslyโ€?

6 But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, โ€œGod resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.โ€

7 Be subject therefore to God. But 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 Lament, mourn, and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to gloom.

10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he will exalt you.

11 Donโ€™t speak against one another, brothers. He who speaks against a brother and 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.

12 Only one is the lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge another?

13 Come now, you who say, โ€œToday or tomorrow letโ€™s go into this city, and spend a year there, trade, and make a profit.โ€

14 Whereas you donโ€™t know what your life will be like tomorrow. For what is your life? For you are a vapor, that appears for a little time, and then vanishes away.

15 For you ought to say, โ€œIf the Lord wills, we will both live, and do this or that.โ€

16 But now you glory in your boasting. All such boasting is evil.

17 To him therefore who knows to do good, and doesnโ€™t do it, to him it is sin.
