Or think ye that, in vain, the scripture speaketh? Is it, for envying, that the spirit which hath taken an abode within us doth crave?

Howbeit he giveth, greater, favour. Wherefore it saith - God, against the haughty, arrayeth himself, Whereas, unto the lowly, he giveth favour.

Range yourselves, therefore, under God, but withstand the adversary, and he will flee from you:

Draw near unto God, and he will draw near unto you. Cleanse hands, sinners! Chasten hearts, double souls!

Be miserable and lament and weep, let, your laughter, into lamentation, be turned, and, your joy, into dejection;

Be made low in presence of the Lord, and he will lift you up.
