James 4:9-11

New King James Version

^9 (A)Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. ^10 (B)Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.

Do Not Judge a Brother

^11 (C)Do not speak evil of one another, brethren. He who speaks evil of a brother ^(D)and judges his brother, speaks evil of the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.
