St James 4:5-10 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

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.

7. Be subject therefore to God, but resist the devil, and he will fly from you.

8. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners: and purify your hearts, ye double minded.

9. Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned into mourning, and your joy into sorrow.

10. Be humbled in the sight of the Lord, and he will exalt you.
