Red-Letter King James Bible 1769 Edition (KJV)

James 4

1 We are to strive against covetousness, 4 intemperance, 5 pride, 11 detraction, and rash judgments of others: 13 and not to be confident in the good success of worldly business, but mindful ever of the uncertainty of this life, to commit ourselves and all our affairs to God's providence.

 4:1 ¶ From whence 4159 [come] wars 4171 and 2532 fightings 3163 among 1722 you? 5213 [come they] not 3756 hence, 1782 [even] of 1537 your 5216 lusts 2237 that war 4754 z5734 in 1722 your 5216 members? 3196

 4:2 Ye lust, 1937 z5719 and 2532 have 2192 z5719 not: 3756 ye kill, 5407 z5719 and 2532 desire to have, 2206 z5719 and 2532 cannot 3756 1410 z5736 obtain: 2013 z5629 ye fight 3164 z5736 and 2532 war, 4170 z5719 yet 1161 ye have 2192 z5719 not, 3756 because y1223 ye 5209 ask 154 z5733 not. 3361

 4:3 Ye ask, 154 z5719 and 2532 receive 2983 z5719 not, 3756 because 1360 ye ask 154 z5731 amiss, 2560 that 2443 ye may consume 1159 z5661 [it] upon 1722 your 5216 lusts. 2237

 4:4 Ye adulterers 3432 and 2532 adulteresses, 3428 know x1492 ye y1492 z5758 not 3756 that 3754 the x3588 friendship 5373 of the x3588 world 2889 is 2076 z5748 enmity 2189 with God? 2316 whosoever 3739 302 therefore 3767 will x1014 be 1511 z5750 y1014 z5680 a friend 5384 of the x3588 world 2889 is 2525 z5743 the enemy 2190 of God. 2316

 4:5 y2228 Do ye x2228 think 1380 z5719 that 3754 the x3588 scripture 1124 saith 3004 z5719 in vain, 2761 The x3588 spirit 4151 that 3739 dwelleth 2730 z5656 in 1722 us 2254 lusteth 1971 z5719 to 4314 envy? 5355

 4:6 But 1161 he giveth 1325 z5719 more 3187 grace. 5485 Wherefore 1352 he saith, 3004 z5719 God 2316 resisteth 498 z5731 the proud, 5244 but 1161 giveth 1325 z5719 grace 5485 unto the humble. 5011

 4:7 Submit x5293 yourselves y5293 z5649 therefore 3767 to God. 2316 Resist 436 z5628 the x3588 devil, 1228 and 2532 he will flee 5343 z5695 from 575 you. 5216

 4:8 Draw nigh 1448 z5657 to God, 2316 and 2532 he will draw nigh 1448 z5692 to you. 5213 Cleanse 2511 z5657 [your] hands, 5495 [ye] sinners; 268 and 2532 purify 48 z5657 [your] hearts, 2588 [ye] double minded. 1374

 4:9 Be afflicted, 5003 z5657 and 2532 mourn, 3996 z5657 and 2532 weep: 2799 z5657 let your 5216 laughter 1071 be turned 3344 z5649 to 1519 mourning, 3997 and 2532 [your] joy 5479 to 1519 heaviness. 2726

 4:10 Humble yourselves 5013 z5682 in the sight 1799 of the x3588 Lord, 2962 and 2532 he shall lift y5312 z0 you y5209 up. 5312 z5692 x5209

 4:11 Speak y2635 z0 not y3361 evil 2635 z5720 x3361 one of another, 240 brethren. 80 He that speaketh evil 2635 z5723 of [his] brother, 80 and 2532 judgeth 2919 z5723 his y846 x848 brother, 80 speaketh evil 2635 z5719 of the law, 3551 and 2532 judgeth 2919 z5719 the law: 3551 but 1161 if 1487 thou judge 2919 z5719 the law, 3551 thou art 1488 z5748 not 3756 a doer 4163 of the law, 3551 but 235 a judge. 2923

 4:12 There is 2076 z5748 one 1520 lawgiver, 3550 who y3588 is able 1410 z5740 to save 4982 z5658 and 2532 to destroy: 622 z5658 who 5101 art 1488 z5748 thou 4771 that 3739 judgest 2919 z5719 another? 2087

 4:13 Go to 33 z5720 now, 3568 ye that say, 3004 z5723 To day 4594 or 2532 to morrow 839 we will go 4198 z5667 into 1519 such 3592 a city, 4172 and 2532 continue 4160 z5661 z5625 z5692 there 1563 a 1520 year, 1763 and 2532 buy and sell, 1710 z5667 z5625 z5695 and 2532 get gain: 2770 z5661 z5625 z5692

 4:14 Whereas 3748 ye know 1987 z5736 not 3756 what 3588 [shall be] on the x3588 morrow. 839 For 1063 what 4169 [is] your 5216 life? 2222 It is 2076 z5748 even 1063 a vapour, 822 that y4314 appeareth x5316 for y5316 z5730 x4314 a little time, 3641 and 1161 then 1899 vanisheth away. 853 z5746

 4:15 For x473 that y473 ye 5209 [ought] to say, 3004 z5721 If 1437 the x3588 Lord 2962 will, 2309 z5661 y2532 we shall x2532 live, 2198 z5661 z5625 z5692 and 2532 do 4160 z5661 z5625 z5692 this, 5124 or 2228 that. 1565

 4:16 But y1161 x1611 now 3568 ye rejoice 2744 z5736 in 1722 your 5216 boastings: 212 all 3956 such 5108 rejoicing 2746 is 2076 z5748 evil. 4190

 4:17 Therefore 3767 to him that knoweth 1492 z5761 to do 4160 z5721 good, 2570 and 2532 doeth 4160 z5723 [it] not, 3361 to him 846 it is 2076 z5748 sin. 266
