James 1 : 1 (MKJV)

James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes in the Dispersion, greeting:

James 1 : 2 (MKJV)

My brothers, count it all joy when you fall into different kinds of temptations,

James 1 : 3 (MKJV)

knowing that the trying of your faith works patience.

James 1 : 4 (MKJV)

But let patience have its perfect work, so that you may be perfect and entire, lacking nothing.

James 1 : 5 (MKJV)

But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and with no reproach, and it shall be given to him.

James 1 : 6 (MKJV)

But let him ask in faith, doubting nothing. For he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.

James 1 : 7 (MKJV)

For do not let that man think that he shall receive anything from the Lord;

James 1 : 8 (MKJV)

he is a double-minded man, not dependable in all his ways.

James 1 : 9 (MKJV)

But let the humble brother rejoice in his exaltation;

James 1 : 10 (MKJV)

and the rich one rejoice in his humiliation, because he shall pass away as the flower of the grass.

James 1 : 11 (MKJV)

For the sun rose with the hot wind and dried up the grass, and its flower fell out, and the beauty of its appearance perished; so also the rich one will fade away in his ways.

James 1 : 12 (MKJV)

Blessed is the man who endures temptation, because having been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

James 1 : 13 (MKJV)

Let no one being tempted say, I am tempted from God. For God is not tempted by evils, and He tempts no one.

James 1 : 14 (MKJV)

But each one is tempted by his lusts, being drawn away and seduced by them.

James 1 : 15 (MKJV)

Then when lust has conceived, it brings forth sin. And sin, when it is fully formed, brings forth death.

James 1 : 16 (MKJV)

Do not err, my beloved brothers.

James 1 : 17 (MKJV)

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness nor shadow of turning.

James 1 : 18 (MKJV)

Of His own will He brought us forth with the Word of truth, for us to be a certain firstfruit of His creatures.

James 1 : 19 (MKJV)

Therefore, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.

James 1 : 20 (MKJV)

For the wrath of man does not work out the righteousness of God.

James 1 : 21 (MKJV)

Therefore putting aside all filthiness and overflowing of evil, receive in meekness the implanted Word, which is able to save your souls.

James 1 : 22 (MKJV)

But become doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

James 1 : 23 (MKJV)

For if anyone is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man studying his natural face in a mirror.

James 1 : 24 (MKJV)

For he studied himself and went his way, and immediately he forgot what he was like.

James 1 : 25 (MKJV)

But whoever looks into the perfect Law of liberty and continues in it, he is not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work. This one shall be blessed in his doing.

James 1 : 26 (MKJV)

If anyone thinks to be religious among you, yet does not bridle his tongue, but deceives his own heart, this one's religion is vain.

James 1 : 27 (MKJV)

Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, to visit orphans and widows in their afflictions, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
