[fn]What is the source of quarrels and conflicts among you? [fn]Is the source not your pleasures that wage war in [fn]your body’s parts?

Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:2 - You lust and do not have, so you commit murder. And you are envious and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have because you do not ask.

Do not speak against one another, brothers and sisters. The one who speaks against a brother or sister, or judges his brother or sister, speaks against the law and judges the law; but if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge of it.

Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:12 - There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the One who is able to save and to destroy; but who are you, [fn]judging your neighbor?
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:13 -

Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:14 - [fn]Yet you do not know [fn]what your life will be like tomorrow. For you are just a vapor that appears for a little while, and then vanishes away.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:15 - [fn]Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:16 - But as it is, you boast in your [fn]arrogance; all such boasting is evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:17 - So for one who knows the [fn]right thing to do and does not do it, for him it is sin.
