dourh@James:1:1 @ James the servant of God, and of our Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

dourh@James:1:2 @ My brethren, count it all joy, when you shall fall into divers temptations;

dourh@James:1:3 @ Knowing that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

dourh@James:1:4 @ And patience hath a perfect work; that you may be perfect and entire, failing in nothing.

dourh@James:1:5 @ But if any of you want wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all men abundantly, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

dourh@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea, which is moved and carried about by the wind.

dourh@James:1:7 @ Therefore let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

dourh@James:1:8 @ A double minded man is inconstant in all his ways.

dourh@James:1:9 @ But let the brother of low condition glory in his exaltation:

dourh@James:1:10 @ And the rich, in his being low; because as the flower of the grass shall he pass away.

dourh@James:1:11 @ For the sun rose with a burning heat, and parched the grass, and the flower thereof fell off, and the beauty of the shape thereof perished: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.

dourh@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he hath been proved, he shall receive a crown of life, which God hath promised to them that love him.

dourh@James:1:13 @ Let no man, when he is tempted, say that he is tempted by God. For God is not a tempter of evils, and he tempteth no man.

dourh@James:1:14 @ But every man is tempted by his own concupiscence, being drawn away and allured.

dourh@James:1:15 @ Then when concupiscence hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin. But sin, when it is completed, begetteth death.

dourh@James:1:16 @ Do not err, therefore, my dearest brethren.

dourh@James:1:17 @ Every best gift, and every perfect gift, is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change, nor shadow of alteration.

dourh@James:1:18 @ For of his own will hath he begotten us by the word of truth, that we might be some beginning of his creatures.

dourh@James:1:19 @ You know, my dearest brethren. And let every man be swift to hear, but slow to speak, and slow to anger.

dourh@James:1:20 @ For the anger of man worketh not the justice of God.

dourh@James:1:21 @ Wherefore casting away all uncleanness, and abundance of naughtiness, with meekness receive the ingrafted word, which is able to save your souls.

dourh@James:1:22 @ But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

dourh@James:1:23 @ For if a man be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he shall be compared to a man beholding his own countenance in a glass.

dourh@James:1:24 @ For he beheld himself, and went his way, and presently forgot what manner of man he was.

dourh@James:1:25 @ But he that hath looked into the perfect law of liberty, and hath continued therein, not becoming a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work; this man shall be blessed in his deed.

dourh@James:1:26 @ And if any man think himself to be religious, not bridling his tongue, but deceiving his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

dourh@James:1:27 @ Religion clean and undefiled before God and the Father, is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their tribulation: and to keep one's self unspotted from this world.
