BLB(i)
4 Adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility with God? Therefore whoever has chosen to be a friend of the world is appointed an enemy of God.
5 Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, “The Spirit that He has made to dwell in us yearns with envy”?
6 But He gives greater grace. Therefore it says: “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
7 Therefore subject yourselves to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
8 Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and have purified hearts, you double-minded.
9 Be grieved and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning, and the joy to gloom.
10 Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.
11 Do not speak against one another, brothers. The one speaking against his brother or judging his brother speaks against 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 Lawgiver and Judge, the One being able to save and to destroy. But who are you judging the neighbor?
