james 4:10 Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.

< James 4:8
James 4:10 >

      10. in the sight of the Lord--as continually in the presence of Him who alone is worthy to be exalted: recognizing His presence in all your ways, the truest incentive to humility. The tree, to grow upwards, must strike its roots deep downwards; so man, to be exalted, must have his mind deep-rooted in humility. In 1Pe 5:6, it is, Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, namely, in His dealings of Providence: a distinct thought from that here.
      lift you up--in part in this world, fully in the world to come.

JFB.
