James 4:3-5
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, in order to spend what you get on your pleasures. 4 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. 5 Or do you suppose that it is for nothing that the scripture says, ‘God[a] yearns jealously for the spirit that he has made to dwell in us’?
