Text -- James 4:9-17 (NET)
Strongs On/Off
Context
4:9 Grieve , mourn , and weep . Turn your laughter into mourning and your joy into despair .
4:10 Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you .
4:11 Do not speak against one another , brothers and sisters . He who speaks against a fellow believer or judges a fellow believer speaks against the law and judges the law . But if you judge the law , you are not a doer of the law but its judge .
4:12 But there is only one who is lawgiver and judge – the one who is able to save and destroy . On the other hand , who are you to judge your neighbor ?
4:13 Come now , you who say , “Today or tomorrow we will go into this or that town and spend a year there and do business and make a profit .”
4:14 You do not know about tomorrow . What is your life like? For you are a puff of smoke that appears for a short time and then vanishes .
4:15 You ought to say instead, “If the Lord is willing , then we will live and do this or that .”
4:16 But as it is , you boast in your arrogance . All such boasting is evil .
4:17 So whoever knows what is good to do and does not do it is guilty of sin .
