James 4:10-17 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

10. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall exalt you.

11. Speak not one against another, brethren. He that speaketh against a brother, or judgeth his brother, speaketh against the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judgest the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.

12. One only is the lawgiver and judge, even he who is able to save and to destroy: but who art thou that judgest thy neighbour?

13. Go to now, ye that say, Today or tomorrow we will go into this city, and spend a year there, and trade, and get gain:

14. whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. What is your life? For ye are a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

15. For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall both live, and do this or that.

16. But now ye glory in your vauntings: all such glorying is evil.

17. To him therefore that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
