James 1:5-15 (King James Version)
View In My Bible
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.
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 .
7
For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
8
A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
9
Let the brother of low degree rejoicea in that he is exalted:
10
But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away .
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.
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.
13
Let no man say when he is tempted , I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil,b neither tempteth he any man:
14
But every man is tempted , when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed .
15
Then when lust hath conceived , it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished , bringeth forth death.
