雅各書 4
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1你們中間的爭戰鬥毆是從哪裏來的呢？不是從你們百體中戰鬥之私慾來的嗎？
1From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?
2你們貪戀，還是得不着；你們殺害嫉妒，又鬥毆爭戰，也不能得。你們得不着，是因為你們不求。
2Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.
3你們求也得不着，是因為你們妄求，要浪費在你們的宴樂中。
3Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.
4你們這些淫亂的人哪，豈不知與世俗為友就是與上帝為敵嗎？所以凡想要與世俗為友的，就是與上帝為敵了。
4Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
5你們想經上所說是徒然的嗎？上帝所賜、住在我們裏面的靈，是戀愛至於嫉妒嗎？
5Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?
6但他賜更多的恩典，所以經上說： 上帝阻擋驕傲的人， 賜恩給謙卑的人。
6But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.
7故此，你們要順服上帝。務要抵擋魔鬼，魔鬼就必離開你們逃跑了。
7Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
8你們親近上帝，上帝就必親近你們。有罪的人哪，要潔淨你們的手！心懷二意的人哪，要清潔你們的心！
8Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
9你們要愁苦、悲哀、哭泣，將喜笑變作悲哀，歡樂變作愁悶。
9Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.
10務要在主面前自卑，主就必叫你們升高。
10Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
11弟兄們，你們不可彼此批評。人若批評弟兄，論斷弟兄，就是批評律法，論斷律法。你若論斷律法，就不是遵行律法，乃是判斷人的。
11Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
12設立律法和判斷人的，只有一位，就是那能救人也能滅人的。你是誰，竟敢論斷別人呢？
12There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?
13嗐！你們有話說：「今天明天我們要往某城裏去，在那裏住一年，做買賣得利。」
13Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:
14其實明天如何，你們還不知道。你們的生命是甚麼呢？你們原來是一片雲霧，出現少時就不見了。
14Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
15你們只當說：「主若願意，我們就可以活着，也可以做這事，或做那事。」
15For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
16現今你們竟以張狂誇口；凡這樣誇口都是惡的。
16But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.
17人若知道行善，卻不去行，這就是他的罪了。
17Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
