God resists the proud,
but gives grace to the humble.(B)[b]

7 Therefore, submit to God. But resist the Devil, and he will flee from you.(C)

James 4:5-7
New International Version

5 Or do you think Scripture says without reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has caused to dwell in us[a]?(A) 6 But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:

“God opposes the proud
    but shows favor to the humble.”[b](B)

7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil,(C) and he will flee from you.
