James 4:4-6

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴ Adulterers, know you not that the friendship of this world is the enemy of God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of this world, becometh an enemy of God.

⁵ Or do you think that the scripture saith in vain: To envy doth the spirit covet which dwelleth in you?

⁶ But he giveth greater grace. Wherefore he saith: God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
