Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:1 - Whence come wars and whence fightings among you? Is it not thence, -- from your pleasures, which war in your members?
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:2 - Ye lust and have not: ye kill and are full of envy, and cannot obtain; ye fight and war; ye have not because ye ask not.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:3 - Ye ask and receive not, because ye ask evilly, that ye may consume it in your pleasures.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:4 - Adulteresses, know ye not that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore is minded to be the friend of the world is constituted enemy of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:5 - Think ye that the scripture speaks in vain? Does the Spirit which has taken his abode in us desire enviously?

Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:7 - Subject yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:13 - Go to now, ye who say, To-day or to-morrow will we go into such a city and spend a year there, and traffic and make gain,
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:14 - ye who do not know what will be on the morrow, (for what is your life? It is even a vapour, appearing for a little while, and then disappearing,)
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:15 - instead of your saying, If the Lord should so will and we should live, we will also do this or that.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:16 - But now ye glory in your vauntings: all such glorying is evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:17 - To him therefore who knows how to do good, and does it not, to him it is sin.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
