7 Therefore, submit to God. Resist the devil, and he will run away from you.
8 Come near to God, and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners. Purify your hearts, you double-minded.
9 Cry out in sorrow, mourn, and weep! Let your laughter become mourning and your joy become sadness.
10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
11 Brothers and sisters, don’t say evil things about each other. Whoever insults or criticizes a brother or sister insults and criticizes the Law. If you find fault with the Law, you are not a doer of the Law but a judge over it.
12 There is only one lawgiver and judge, and he is able to save and to destroy. But you who judge your neighbor, who are you?
13 Pay attention, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to such-and-such a town. We will stay there a year, buying and selling, and making a profit."
