Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse {your} hands, {ye} sinners; and purify {your} hearts, {ye} double minded.

Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and {your} joy to heaviness.
