Yakobus 1:11

1:11 For the sun rises with its heat and dries up the meadow; the petal of the flower falls off and its beauty is lost forever. ¹  So also the rich person in the midst of his pursuits will wither away.

Yakobus 4:2

4:2 You desire and you do not have; you murder and envy and you cannot obtain; you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask;

Yakobus 4:10

4:10 Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you.

[1:11]  ¹ tn Or “perishes,” “is destroyed.”
