James 4:6-10 (New International Version)

⁶But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:
   "God opposes the proud
      but gives grace to the humble."^[a]

 ⁷Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. ⁸Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. ⁹Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. ¹⁰Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
