and of the
Lord
Jesus
Christ, to the
twelve
tribes
which are scattered
abroad,
greeting.
|
- 1:2
My
brethren, count
it
all
joy
when ye
fall into
divers
temptations;
|
- 1:3
Knowing this,
that the
trying of
your
faith
worketh
patience.
|
- 1:4
But
let
patience
have her
perfect
work,
that ye may
be
perfect
and
entire,
wanting
nothing
*.
|
- 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.
|
- 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.
|
- 1:7
For
let
not
that
man
think
that he shall
receive any
thing
of the
Lord.

man is
unstable
in
all
his
ways.

Let the
brother of low
degree
rejoice
in that
he is
exalted:
|
- 1:10
But the
rich,
in that
he is made
low:
because
as the
flower of the
grass he shall pass
away.
|
- 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.
|
- 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.
|
- 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:
|
- 1:14
But every
man is
tempted, when he is drawn
away
of his
own
lust,
and
enticed.
|
- 1:15
Then when
lust hath
conceived, it bringeth
forth
sin:
and
sin, when it is
finished, bringeth
forth
death.
|
- 1:16
Do
not
err,
my
beloved
brethren.
|
- 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.
|
- 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.
|
- 1:19
Wherefore,
my
beloved
brethren,
let
every
man
be
swift
to
hear,
slow
to
speak,
slow
to
wrath:
|
- 1:20
For the
wrath of
man
worketh
not the
righteousness of
God.
|
- 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.
|
- 1:22
But be
ye
doers of the
word,
and
not
hearers
only,
deceiving your own
selves.
|
- 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:
|
- 1:24
For he
beholdeth
himself,
and goeth his
way,
and
straightway
forgetteth what manner of
man he
was.
|
- 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.
|
- 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.
|
- 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.
