< James 4 >

1 From where [come] disputes and (from where *no) quarrels among you? Surely from there, out of the passions of you those warring in the members of you? 2 You desire and not have; you kill and covet and not are able to obtain; You quarrel and wrangle; Not you have (now *k) because not to ask you; 3 You ask and not receive, because wrongly you ask, that in the pleasures of you you may spend [it]. 4 (adulterers — and *K) Adulteresses! Surely you know that the friendship with the world hostility with God is? Who[ever] (maybe *N+kO) therefore shall choose a friend to be of the world, an enemy of God is appointed. 5 Or think you that in vain the Scripture speaks? With envy yearns the Spirit that (he settled *N+kO) in us, 6 Greater however He gives grace; Therefore it says: God [the] proud opposes, to [the] humble however gives grace. 7 do be subjected therefore to God. do resist (however *no) the devil and he will flee from you, 8 do draw near to God and He will draw near to you. do cleanse [your] hands, [you] sinners, and do purify hearts, [you] double-minded. 9 do be grieved and do mourn and do weep; The laughter of you to mourning (should be turned *N+kO) and the joy to gloom. 10 do be humbled in the presence of (the *ko) Lord and He will exalt you. 11 Not do speak against one another, brothers; The [one] speaking against [his] brother (or *N+kO) judging the brother of him speaks against [the] Law and judges [the] Law; If however [the] Law you judge, not you are a doer of [the] Law but a judge. 12 One there is Lawgiver (and Judge *NO) who is being able to save and to destroy; You yourself (however *no) who are (you who [are] judging *N+kO) the (neighbour? *N+KO) 13 do come now you who [are] saying; Today (or *N+kO) tomorrow (we will go *N+kO) into such city and (will spend *N+kO) there a year (one *K) and (will trade *N+kO) and (will make a profit; *N+kO) 14 [you] who not you know what [is] on the next day [is] What [is] (for *ko) the life of you! A vapor just (you are *N+K+o) for a little [while] appearing then (and *k) also vanishing; 15 Instead [ought] to say you; If the Lord (shall wish *NK+o) both (we will live *N+kO) and (we will do *N+kO) this or that. 16 Now however you boast in the arrogance of you; All boasting such evil is. 17 To [him] knowing therefore good to do and not doing [it], sin to him it is.
