James 4:15 in context

  1. 13Come now, ye that say, To-day or to-morrow we will go into this city, and spend a year there, and trade, and get gain:
  2. 14whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. What is your life? For ye are a vapor that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
  3. 15For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall both live, and do this or that.
  4. 16But now ye glory in your vauntings: all such glorying is evil.
  5. 17To him therefore that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
