James 4:11-13 English Standard Version (ESV)

11. Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.

12. There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?

13. Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”—
