James:1:2-18
noyes@James:1:2 @ Count it all joy, my brethren, when ye fall into various temptations;
noyes@James:1:3 @ knowing that the trying of your faith worketh endurance.
noyes@James:1:4 @ But let endurance have a perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting in nothing.
noyes@James:1:5 @ But if any one of you is wanting in wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it will be given him.
noyes@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, nothing doubting; for he that doubteth is like a wave of the sea driven by the wind and tossed.
noyes@James:1:7 @ For let not that man think that he shall receive anything from the Lord,
noyes@James:1:8 @ a doubleĀminded man as he is, unstable in all his ways.
noyes@James:1:9 @ Let the brother of low degree glory in that he is exalted;
noyes@James:1:10 @ but the rich, in that he is made low; because as the flower of the grass he will pass away.
noyes@James:1:11 @ For the sun rose with its burning heat, and withered the grass, and its flower fell off, and the beauty of its appearance perished; so also will the rich man fade away in his ways.
noyes@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he is approved, he will receive the crown of life, which He promised to them that love him.
noyes@James:1:13 @ Let no one when he is tempted, say, I am tempted by God; for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he tempteth no one.
noyes@James:1:14 @ But each one is tempted when by his own lust he is led away and enticed;
noyes@James:1:15 @ then lust, having conceived, bringeth forth sin, and sin, when completed, bringeth forth death.
noyes@James:1:16 @ Do not err, my beloved brethren.
noyes@James:1:17 @ Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the lights, with whom is no change, nor shadow from turning.
noyes@James:1:18 @ Of his own will he begot us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstĀfruits of his creatures.
