James - ch 1 v 1 - 20

  1. James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
  2. My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations.
  3. Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
  4. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
  5. If any of you lacketh wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given to him.
  6. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
  7. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing from the Lord.
  8. A man unsettled in his opinions is unstable in all his ways.
  9. Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:
  10. But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.
  11. For the sun hath no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and its flower falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.
  12. Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
  13. Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted by God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
  14. But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed.
  15. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
  16. Do not err, my beloved brethren.
  17. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
  18. Of his own will he hath begotten us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first-fruits of his creatures.
  19. Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
  20. For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
