La Biblia Reina-Valera (Español) RVR
New International Version NIV
1 ¿DE dónde vienen las guerras y los pleitos entre vosotros? ¿No son de vuestras concupiscencias, las cuales combaten en vuestros miembros?
1
What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from your desires that battle within you?
2 Codiciáis, y no tenéis; matáis y ardéis de envidia, y no podéis alcanzar; combatís y gerreáis, y no tenéis lo que deseáis, porque no pedís.
2
You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God.
3 Pedís, y no recibís, porque pedís mal, para gastar en vuestros deleites.
3
When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.
4 Adúlteros y adúlteras, ¿no sabéis que la amistad del mundo es enemistad con Dios? Cualquiera pues que quisiere ser amigo del mundo, se constituye enemigo de Dios.
4
You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.
5 ¿Pensáis que la Escritura dice sin causa: Es espíritu que mora en nosotros codicia para envidia?
5
Or do you think Scripture says without reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has caused to dwell in us ?
6 Mas él da mayor gracia. Por esto dice: Dios resiste á los soberbios, y da gracia á los humildes.
6
But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: “God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.”
7 Someteos pues á Dios; resistid al diablo, y de vosotros huirá.
7
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
8 Allegaos á Dios, y él se allegará á vosotros. Pecadores, limpiad las manos; y vosotros de doblado ánimo, purificad los corazones.
8
Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
