^ Ja 1.1: James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
^ Ja 1.2: My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
^ Ja 1.3: Knowing [this], that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
^ Ja 1.4: But let patience have [her] perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
^ Ja 1.5: If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all [men] liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
^ Ja 1.6: 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.
^ Ja 1.7: For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
^ Ja 1.8: A double minded man [is] unstable in all his ways.
^ Ja 1.9: Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:
^ Ja 1.10: But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.
^ Ja 1.11: For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.
^ Ja 1.12: 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.
^ Ja 1.13: Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
^ Ja 1.14: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
^ Ja 1.15: Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
^ Ja 1.16: Do not err, my beloved brethren.
^ Ja 1.17: 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.
^ Ja 1.18: Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
^ Ja 1.19: Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
^ Ja 1.20: For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
^ Ja 1.21: Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
^ Ja 1.22: But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
^ Ja 1.23: For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
^ Ja 1.24: For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
^ Ja 1.25: But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth [therein], he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
^ Ja 1.26: If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion [is] vain.
^ Ja 1.27: Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, [and] to keep himself unspotted from the world.
