James 4:6-126 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?’7 be subject, then, to God; stand up against the devil, and he will flee from you;8 draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you; cleanse hands, ye sinners! and purify hearts, ye two-souled!9 be exceeding afflicted, and mourn, and weep, let your laughter to mourning be turned, and the joy to heaviness;10 be made low before the Lord, and He shall exalt you.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;12 one is the lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy; thou — who art thou that dost judge the other?
