James 4:5-8

5OrG2228 do you thinkG1380 theG3588 ScriptureG1124 saysG3004 without reasonG2761 that theG3588 SpiritG41511 He caused to dwellG2730 inG1722 usG1473 yearnsG1971 withG4314 envyG5355? 6ButG1161 He givesG1325 us moreG3173 graceG5485. This is whyG1352 it saysG3004:

“GodG2316 opposesG498 the proudG5244,butG1161 givesG1325 graceG5485 to the humbleG5011.”2

7Submit yourselvesG5293, thenG3767, to GodG2316. ResistG436 theG3588 devilG1228, andG2532 he will fleeG5343 fromG575 youG4771. 8Draw nearG1448 to GodG2316, andG2532 He will draw nearG1448 to youG4771. CleanseG2511 your handsG5495, you sinnersG268, andG2532 purifyG48 your heartsG2588, you double-mindedG1374.
