James 4:7

Subject Yourselves To God

⁶ But He gives greater grace. Therefore He says:

God resists the proud,
but gives grace to the humble. ⁷ Therefore, submit to God. But resist the Devil, and he will flee from you. ⁸ Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, sinners, and purify your hearts, double-minded people!
