(D)Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and (E)purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 (F)Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 (G)Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.
Do Not Judge a Brother
11 (H)Do not speak evil of one another, brethren. He who speaks evil of a brother (I)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. 12 There is one [a]Lawgiver, (J)who is able to save and to destroy. (K)Who[b] are you to judge [c]another?
