In context
3 Mnaomba na hampokei kwa sababu mnaomba kwa ajili ya mambo mabaya, ili kwamba muweze kuvitumia kwa tamaa zenu mbaya.
4 Enyi wazinzi! Hamjui kwamba urafiki na ulimwengu ni uadui dhidi ya Mungu? Kwa hiyo, yeyote aamuaye kuwa rafiki wa ulimwengu hujifanya mwenyewe adui wa Mungu.
5 Au mnadhani maandiko hayana maana yasemapo kwamba Roho aliyoweka ndani yetu ana wivu sana kwa ajili yetu?
6 Lakini Mungu hutoa neema zaidi, ndiyo maana maandiko husema, “Mungu humpinga mwenye kiburi, lakini humpa neema mnyenyekevu.”
7 Hivyo, jitoeni kwa Mungu. Mpingeni ibilisi na yeye atakimbia kutoka kwenu.
8 Sogeeni karibu na Mungu, na yeye atakaribia karibu nanyi. Safisheni mikono yenu, enyi wenye dhambi, na takaseni mioyo yenu, enyi wenye nia mbili.
9 Huzunikeni, ombolezeni, na kuria! Geuzeni kicheko chenu kuwa huzuni na furaha yenu kuwa maombolezo.
