James 4:6 in Context — James 4
4 Adúlteros y adúlteras, ¿no sabéis que la amistad del mundo es enemistad con Dios? Cualquiera pues que quisiere ser amigo del mundo, se constituye enemigo de Dios.
5 ¿Pensáis que la Escritura dice sin causa: El espíritu que mora en nosotros codicia para envidia?
6 Mas él da mayor gracia. Por esto dice: Dios resiste á los soberbios, y da gracia á los humildes.
7 Someteos pues á Dios; resistid al diablo, y de vosotros huirá.
8 Allegaos á Dios, y él se allegará á vosotros. Pecadores, limpiad las manos; y vosotros de doblado ánimo, purificad los corazones.
