lont@James:1:1 @ James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes who are in the dispersion: Health.
lont@James:1:2 @ My brethren, count it all joy, when you fall into diverse trials;
lont@James:1:3 @ knowing that the proof of your faith works out patience.
lont@James:1:4 @ Let patience, therefore, have a perfect effect, that you may be perfect and complete, deficient in nothing.
lont@James:1:5 @ If any of you be deficient in wisdom, let him ask it of God: who gives to all men liberally, and upbraids not, and it shall be given to him.
lont@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, being not at all irresolute: for he who is irresolute, is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.
lont@James:1:7 @ Now let not that man think, that he shall receive anything from the Lord.
lont@James:1:9 @ Moreover, let the brother of humble condition glory in his exaltation,
lont@James:1:10 @ and the rich in his humiliation; for as a garden flower he shall pass away.-
lont@James:1:11 @ For the sun rises with a burning heat, and withers the herb, and its flower falls down, and the beauty of its appearance perishes: so also shall the rich man fade in his ways.
lont@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man who sustains trial, for becoming an approved person, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to them who love him.
lont@James:1:13 @ Let no one who is tempted say, Certainly I am tempted by God: for God is incapable of being tempted by evil things, and he tempts no one.
lont@James:1:14 @ But every one is tempted, when he is drawn away, and enticed by his own lust:
lont@James:1:15 @ then lust having conceived, brings forth sin, and sin, being perfected, brings forth death.
lont@James:1:17 @ every good gift, and every perfect gift, is from above, descended from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variableness, nor shadow of turning.
lont@James:1:18 @ Of his own will, he begot us by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of fruits of his creatures.
lont@James:1:19 @ Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath;
lont@James:1:20 @ for the wrath of man works not out the righteousness of God.
lont@James:1:21 @ Wherefore, putting away all filthiness, and overflowing of maliciousness, embrace with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
lont@James:1:22 @ And be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves by false reasoning.
lont@James:1:23 @ For if any one be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like a man who views his natural face in a mirror;
lont@James:1:24 @ for he who looks at himself and goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of person he was.
lont@James:1:25 @ But he who looks narrowly into the perfect law of liberty, and perseveres, not becoming a forgetful hearer, but a doer of its work, shall, in so doing, be happy.
lont@James:1:26 @ If any one among you think to be religious, who bridles not his tongue, but deceives his own heart, the religion of this person is vain.
lont@James:1:27 @ Pure religion, and undefiled, with God, even the Father, is this: To take care of orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep one's self unspotted from the world.
