Compare: James 4

ASV

Whence [come] wars and whence [come] fightings among you? [come they] not hence, [even] of your pleasures that war in your members?

ASV

Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and covet, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war; ye have not, because ye ask not.

ASV

Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may spend [it] in your pleasures.

ASV

Ye adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore would be a friend of the world maketh himself an enemy of God.

ASV

Or think ye that the scripture speaketh in vain? Doth the spirit which he made to dwell in us long unto envying?

ASV

But he giveth more grace. Wherefore [the scripture] saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble.

ASV

Be subject therefore unto God; but resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

ASV

Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye doubleminded.

ASV

Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.

ASV

Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall exalt you.

ASV

Speak not one against another, brethren. He that speaketh against a brother, or judgeth his brother, speaketh against the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judgest the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.

ASV

One [only] is the lawgiver and judge, [even] he who is able to save and to destroy: but who art thou that judgest thy neighbor?

ASV

Come now, ye that say, To-day or to-morrow we will go into this city, and spend a year there, and trade, and get gain:

ASV

whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. What is your life? For ye are a vapor that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

ASV

For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall both live, and do this or that.

ASV

But now ye glory in your vauntings: all such glorying is evil.

ASV

To him therefore that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
