James 4:7 DBY

⁵  Think ye that the scripture speaks in vain? Does the Spirit which has taken his abode in us desire enviously?

⁶  But he gives more grace. Wherefore he says, God sets himself against [the] proud, but gives grace to [the] lowly.

⁷  Subject yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

⁸  Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse [your] hands, sinners, and purify [your] hearts, ye double-minded.

⁹  Be wretched, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and [your] joy to heaviness.
