Pataje

Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.

But he gives all the more grace; therefore it says, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

Anyone, then, who knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, commits sin.

You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, in order to spend what you get on your pleasures.

Adulterers! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.

Yet you do not even know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.
