James 4:7–10

7 aBe subject therefore to God. bResist the devil and he will flee from you.

8 aDraw near to God and He will draw near to you. bCleanse your hands, you sinners, and cpurify your hearts, you ddouble-minded.

9 aBe miserable and mourn and cry. Let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy to gloom.

10 aHumble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.
