James 4:6-11

English Standard Version Anglicised

⁶ But ^(A)he gives more grace. Therefore it says, ^(B)“God opposes the proud, but ^(C)gives grace to the humble.” ⁷ Submit yourselves therefore to God. ^(D)Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. ^8 (E)Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. ^(F)Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and ^(G)purify your hearts, ^(H)you double-minded. ^9 (I)Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. ^10 (J)Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.

^11 (K)Do not speak evil against one another, brothers.^[a] The one who speaks against a brother or ^(L)judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.
