- Jas 4:2-7 : 2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and covet, and cannot {G3756} obtain: ye fight and war; {G1161} ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may spend [it] in your pleasures. 4 Ye {G3432} {G2532} adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever {G302} therefore would be a friend of the world maketh himself an enemy of God. 5 Or think ye that the scripture speaketh in vain? Doth the spirit which he made to dwell in us long unto envying? 6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore [the scripture] saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble. 7 Be subject therefore unto God; but resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
