5 *If any of you lacks wisdom, *let him ask God, *who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. 6 But *let him ask in faith, *with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like *a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 *he is a double-minded man, *unstable in all his ways.
