5 Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, a“The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously”?
6 But He gives more grace. Therefore He says:
a“God resists the proud,
But gives grace to the humble.”
a“God resists the proud,
But gives grace to the humble.”
Humility Cures Worldliness
7 Therefore submit to God. aResist the devil and he will flee from you.
8 aDraw near to God and He will draw near to you. bCleanse your hands, you sinners; and cpurify your hearts, you double-minded.
9 aLament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom.
