James 4:15 in Context — James 4
13 Atenção! Vós que dizeis: “Hoje ou amanhã iremos a uma tal cidade, e lá passaremos um ano negociando e lucrando”;
14 mas não sabeis o amanhã. Pois o que [é] a vossa vida? É um vapor, que por pouco tempo aparece, e logo se desvanece.
15 Em vez disso, devíeis dizer: Se o Senhor quiser, e vivermos, faremos isso ou aquilo.
16 Mas agora vos orgulhais nas vossas presunções; todo orgulho como esse é maligno.
17 Portanto, quem sabe fazer o bem, e não [o] faz, comete pecado.
