    4:1 Whence [are] wars and fightings among you? not thence -- out of your passions, that are as soldiers in your members?

    4:2 ye desire, and ye have not; ye murder, and are zealous, and are not able to attain; ye fight and war, and ye have not, because of your not asking;

    4:3 ye ask, and ye receive not, because evilly ye ask, that in your pleasures ye may spend [it].

    4:4 Adulterers and adulteresses! have ye not known that friendship of the world is enmity with God? whoever, then, may counsel to be a friend of the world, an enemy of God he is set.

    4:5 Do ye think that emptily the Writing saith, `To envy earnestly desireth the spirit that did dwell in us,'

    4:6 and greater grace he doth give, wherefore he saith, `God against proud ones doth set Himself up, and to lowly ones He doth give grace?'

    4:7 be subject, then, to God; stand up against the devil, and he will flee from you;

    4:8 draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you; cleanse hands, ye sinners! and purify hearts, ye two-souled!

    4:9 be exceeding afflicted, and mourn, and weep, let your laughter to mourning be turned, and the joy to heaviness;

    4:10 be made low before the Lord, and He shall exalt you.

    4:11 Speak not one against another, brethren; he who is speaking against a brother, and is judging his brother, doth speak against law, and doth judge law, and if law thou dost judge, thou art not a doer of law but a judge;

    4:12 one is the lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy; thou -- who art thou that dost judge the other?

    4:13 Go, now, ye who are saying, `To-day and to-morrow we will go on to such a city, and will pass there one year, and traffic, and make gain;'

    4:14 who do not know the thing of the morrow; for what is your life? for it is a vapour that is appearing for a little, and then is vanishing;

    4:15 instead of your saying, `If the Lord may will, we shall live, and do this or that;'

    4:16 and now ye glory in your pride; all such glorying is evil;

    4:17 to him, then, knowing to do good, and not doing, sin it is to him.
