James 4:5-9
English Standard Version
5 Or do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, “He yearns jealously over the spirit (A)that he has made to dwell in us”? 6 But (B)he gives more grace. Therefore it says, (C)“God opposes the proud but (D)gives grace to the humble.” 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. (E)Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 (F)Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. (G)Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and (H)purify your hearts, (I)you double-minded. 9 (J)Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom.
