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.
10 aHumble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.
