James 4:15 KJV

For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.

James 4:15, King James Version

In context

14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

15 For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.

16 But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.
