\subsection{James 4}
\VS{1} Whence [are] fights and [whence are] contentions among you? [is]n't [it] therefore out [of your] pleasures making war among your members? 
\VS{2} You desire, and you have not; you murder and burn with envy, and are not able to be obtaining, you quarrel and you fight. You have not because you are not asking\fnAiteo{}. 
\VS{3} You ask\fnAiteo{} and do not receive because you ask evil-ly in order that you squander in your pleasures. 
\VS{4} Adulterers, don't you know that the philia-[friendship] of the world is enmity of God? Whoever therefore wishes to be [a] philia-[friend] of the world makes himself hateful of God. 
\VS{5} Or do you suppose that to no purpose the scripture says: 
With envy he desires the spirit which he caused to dwell in you. 
\VS{6} But he gives [even] greater grace, because it 
says: God opposes [the] arrogant, but he gives grace to [the] humble. 
\VS{7} Therefore be subject to God, and oppose the devil, and [he] will flee from you. 
\VS{8} Come near to God, and he will come near to you. Cleanse [your] hands, sinners, and 
purify [your] hearts, doubleminded. 
\VS{9} Suffer distress and mourn and weep. 
Turn your laughter into mourning and joy into dejection. 
\VS{10} Be humbled before [the] Lord, and he will exalt you. 
\VS{11} Do not speak evil of one another, brothers. 
The [one] speaking evil of [a] brother or judging his brother speaks evil of [the] law and judges [the] law. But if you judge [the] law, you are not [a] 
doer of [the] law but [a] judge. 
\VS{12} There is one lawgiver and judge, the [one] able 
to save and to destroy; but who are you, the [one] judging his neighbor? 

\VS{13} Come now, O [those] saying: Today or tomorrow we will proceed into this 
city and will spend [a] year there and will trade and make [a] profit; 
\VS{14} who do not know of tomorrow, of what sort [will be] your zoe-life\fnZoe{}. 
For you are [a] vapor appearing for [a] little [while] and then vanishing. 
\VS{15} Instead you be saying, If 
the Lord wishes, we will zoe-live\fnZoe{} and will do this or that. 
\VS{16} But now you boast in your arrogance; all such boasting is wicked\fnPoneros{}. 
\VS{17} Therefore to 
the [one] knowing to be doing [a] good [thing] and not doing it, to him it is sin.
