4:7Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

4:8Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.

4:9Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.

4:10Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

4:11Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.

4:12There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?

4:13Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:

4:14Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

4:15For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.

4:16But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.

4:17Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.

5:1Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.

5:2Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.

5:3Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

5:4Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.

5:5Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

5:6Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.

5:7Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.

5:8Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.

5:9Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned: behold, the judge standeth before the door.

10And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.

11And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come?

12And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.

13But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.

14And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them.

15And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.

16And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?
