James 4:9-11

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁹^(A)Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy to gloom. ¹⁰^(B)Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.

¹¹^(C)Do not speak against one another, ^(D)brethren. He who speaks against a brother or ^(E)judges his brother, speaks against ^(F)the law and judges the law; but if you judge the law, you are not ^(G)a doer of the law but a judge of it.
