James 4:8-12

81DrawG1448 nearG1448 to GodG2316 and He will drawG1448 nearG1448 to you. 2CleanseG2511 your handsG5495, you sinnersG268; and 3purifyG48 your heartsG2588, you 4double-mindedG1374. 95Be miserableG5003 and mournG3996 and weepG2799; let your laughterG1071 be turnedG3346 into mourningG3997 and your joyG5479 to gloomG2726. 106HumbleG5013 yourselves in the presenceG1799 of the LordG2962, and He will exaltG5312 you.

117Do not speakG2635 againstG2635 oneG240 anotherG240, 8brethrenG80. He who speaksG2635 againstG2635 a brotherG80 orG2228 9judgesG2919 his brotherG80, speaksG2635 againstG2635 10the lawG3551 and judgesG2919 the lawG3551; but ifG1487 you judgeG2919 the lawG3551, you are not 11a doerG4163 of the lawG3551 but a judgeG2923 of it. 12There is only oneG1520 12LawgiverG3550 and JudgeG2923, the One who is 13ableG1410 to saveG4982 and to destroyG622; but 14whoG5101 are you who judgeG2919 your neighborG4139?
