James 4:5-7
New Living Translation

5 Do you think the Scriptures have no meaning? They say that God is passionate that the spirit he has placed within us should be faithful to him.[a] 6 And he gives grace generously. As the Scriptures say,

“God opposes the proud
    but gives grace to the humble.”[b]

7 So humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
