1. Where do wars and contentions among you come from? Is it not from this: from your own desires, which battle within your members?
2. You desire, and you do not have. You envy and you kill, and you are unable to obtain. You argue and you fight, and you do not have, because you do not ask.
3. You ask and you do not receive, because you ask badly, so that you may use it toward your own desires.
4. You adulterers! Do you not know that the friendship of this world is hostile to God? Therefore, whoever has chosen to be a friend of this world has been made into an enemy of God.
