1 Where do the wars and disputes come from among you? From here that is to say, of your lusts which fight in your members?
2 Ye covet and have not; ye murder, and have envy and cannot obtain; ye fight and war and have not that which ye desire because ye ask not.
3 Ye ask and receive not because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your pleasures.
4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore that desires to be a friend of the world, makes himself the enemy of God.
5 Do ye think that the scripture says in vain, The spirit that dwells in us lusts to envy?
