Yakobus 4:9-10

4:9 Grieve, mourn, ¹  and weep. Turn your laughter ²  into mourning and your joy into despair. 4:10 Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you.

[4:9]  ¹ tn This term and the following one are preceded by καί (kai) in the Greek text, but contemporary English generally uses connectives only between the last two items in such a series.

[4:9]  ² tn Grk “let your laughter be turned.”
