You lust and do not have; so you commit murder. - James 4:2a

You are envious and cannot obtain; so you fight and quarrel You are envious and cannot obtain; so you fight and quarrel. You do not have because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures - James 4:2b-3

You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? - James 4:4a

Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. - Eph. 4:30-31

But He gives a greater grace But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, “God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” - James 4:6
