“God opposes the proud
but gives grace to the humble.”(B)
7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. 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:
7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil,(C) and he will flee from you.
