| - | 1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad: Greetings.
| + | #REDIRECT [[James 1 King James Version 2016]] |
| - | | + | |
| - | 2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials,
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 4 But let perseverance have ''her'' perfect work, that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to everyone liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, because, he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 7 Because, do not let that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord;
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 8 A double minded man ''is'' unstable in all his ways.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 9 Let the lowly brother rejoice in his exaltation,
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 10 but the rich in his humiliation, because, as a flower of the field he will pass away.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 11 Because, no sooner has the sun risen with a burning heat than it withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beautiful appearance perishes. So the rich man likewise will fade away in his pursuits.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 12 Blessed is the man who endures temptation; because when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; because God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He tempt anyone.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 14 But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 15 Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is fully grown, brings forth death.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 18 Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a type of firstfruits of His creation.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 19 So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath;
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 20 because the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 21 Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 23 because if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror;
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 24 because he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 26 If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is useless.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 27 Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
