James 4:6-8
6But 1He givesG1325 a greaterG3173 graceG5485. ThereforeG1352 it saysG3004, “2GodG2316 is opposedG498 to the proudG5244, but givesG1325 graceG5485 to the humbleG5011.”
73SubmitG5293 thereforeG3767 to GodG2316. But 45resistG436 the devilG1228, and he will fleeG5343 from you.
86ComeG1448 closeG1448 to GodG2316 and He will comeG1448 closeG1448 to you. 7CleanseG2511 your handsG5495, you sinnersG268; and 8purifyG48 your heartsG2588, you 910double-mindedG1374.
