James 1:1

1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes scattered among the nations: Greetings.

James 1:4

4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

James 1:6

6 But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.

James 1:8

8 Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do.

James 1:9

9 Believers in humble circumstances ought to take pride in their high position.

James 1:10

10 But the rich should take pride in their humiliation—since they will pass away like a wild flower.

James 1:11

11 For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed. In the same way, the rich will fade away even while they go about their business.

James 1:21

21 Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you.

James 1:23

23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror

James 1:25

25 But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.

James 1:26

26 Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless.

James 1:27

27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

James 2:1

1 My brothers and sisters, believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ must not show favoritism.

James 2:2

2 Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes, and a poor man in filthy old clothes also comes in.

James 2:4

4 have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?

James 2:5

5 Listen, my dear brothers and sisters: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom he promised those who love him?

James 2:10

10 For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.

James 2:16

16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it?

James 3:2

2 We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.

James 3:6

6 The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.

James 3:9

9 With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse human beings, who have been made in God’s likeness.

James 3:13

13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.

James 3:14

14 But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth.

James 3:18

18 Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.

James 4:1

1 What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from your desires that battle within you?

James 4:3

3 When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.

James 4:5

5 Or do you think Scripture says without reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has caused to dwell in us ?

James 4:16

16 As it is, you boast in your arrogant schemes. All such boasting is evil.

James 5:3

3 Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days.

James 5:5

5 You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter.

James 5:13

13 Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise.

James 5:14

14 Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord.

James 5:19

19 My brothers and sisters, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring that person back,
