| 2) | Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. |
| 3) | Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. |
| 4) | Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. |
| 5) | Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? |
