James 4:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners, and purge your hearts, ye double minded.
9 [a]Suffer afflictions, and sorrow ye, and weep: let your laughter be turned into mourning, and your joy into [b]heaviness.
10 (A)Cast down yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
