< James 4 >
1 From where [come] disputes and (from where *no*) quarrels among you? Surely from there, out of the passions of you those warring in the members of you?
2 You desire and not have; you kill and covet and not are able to obtain; You quarrel and wrangle; Not you have (now *k*) because not to ask you;
3 You ask and not receive, because wrongly you ask, that in the pleasures of you you may spend [it].
4 (adulterers — and *K*) Adulteresses! Surely you know that the friendship with the world hostility with God is? Who[ever] (maybe *N(k)O*) therefore shall choose a friend to be of the world, an enemy of God is appointed.
5 Or think you that in vain the Scripture speaks? With envy yearns the Spirit that (he settled *N(k)O*) in us,
6 Greater however He gives grace; Therefore it says: God [the] proud opposes, to [the] humble however gives grace.
7 do be subjected therefore to God. do resist (however *no*) the devil and he will flee from you,
8 do draw near to God and He will draw near to you. do cleanse [your] hands, [you] sinners, and do purify hearts, [you] double-minded.
9 do be grieved and do mourn and do weep; The laughter of you to mourning (should be turned *N(k)O*) and the joy to gloom.
10 do be humbled in the presence of (the *ko*) Lord and He will exalt you.
11 Not do speak against one another, brothers; The [one] speaking against [his] brother (or *N(k)O*) judging the brother of him speaks against [the] Law and judges [the] Law; If however [the] Law you judge, not you are a doer of [the] Law but a judge.
12 One there is Lawgiver (and Judge *NO*) who is being able to save and to destroy; You yourself (however *no*) who are (you who [are] judging *N(k)O*) the (neighbour? *N(K)O*)
13 do come now you who [are] saying; Today (or *N(k)O*) tomorrow (we will go *N(k)O*) into such city and (will spend *N(k)O*) there a year (one *K*) and (will trade *N(k)O*) and (will make a profit; *N(k)O*)
14 [you] who not you know what [is] on the next day [is] What [is] (for *ko*) the life of you! A vapor just (you are *N(K)(o)*) for a little [while] appearing then (and *k*) also vanishing;
15 Instead [ought] to say you; If the Lord (shall wish *NK(o)*) both (we will live *N(k)O*) and (we will do *N(k)O*) this or that.
16 Now however you boast in the arrogance of you; All boasting such evil is.
17 To [him] knowing therefore good to do and not doing [it], sin to him it is.
