James 4:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 (A)Cast down yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
11 [a]Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, or he that condemneth his brother, speaketh evil of the Law, and condemneth the Law: and if thou condemnest the Law, thou art not an observer of the Law, but a judge.
12 There is one Lawgiver, which is able to save, and to destroy, (B)Who art thou that judgest another man?
