JamesG2385, a servantG1401 of GodG2316 andG2532 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, to the twelveG1427 tribesG5443 whichG1722 are scattered abroadG1290, greetingG5463.
MyG3450 brethrenG80, count itG2233 allG3956 joyG5479 whenG3752 ye fallG4045 into diversG4164 temptationsG3986; {temptations: or, trials}
KnowingG1097 this, thatG3754 the tryingG1383 of yourG5216 faithG4102 workethG2716 patienceG5281.
ButG1161 letG2192 patienceG5281 haveG2192 her perfectG5046 workG2041, thatG2443 ye may beG5600 perfectG5046 andG2532 entireG3648, wantingG3007 nothingG1722+G3367.
If anyG1536 of youG5216 lackG3007 wisdomG4678, let him askG154 ofG3844 GodG2316, that givethG1325 to allG3956 men liberallyG574, andG2532 upbraidethG3679 notG3361; andG2532 it shall be givenG1325 himG846.
ButG1161 let him askG154 inG1722 faithG4102, nothingG3367 waveringG1252. ForG1063 he that waverethG1252 is likeG1503 a waveG2830 of the seaG2281 driven with the windG416 andG2532 tossedG4494.
ForG1063 letG3633 notG3361 thatG1565 manG444 thinkG3633 thatG3754 he shall receiveG2983 any thingG5100 ofG3844 the LordG2962.
A double mindedG1374 manG435 is unstableG182 inG1722 allG3956 hisG846 waysG3598.
LetG2744 the brotherG80 of low degreeG5011 rejoiceG2744 inG1722 that heG846 is exaltedG5311: {rejoice: or, glory} {rejoice: or, glory}
ButG1161 the richG4145, inG1722 that heG846 is made lowG5014: becauseG3754 asG5613 the flowerG438 of the grassG5528 he shall pass awayG3928.
ForG1063 the sunG2246 is no sooner risenG393 withG4862 a burning heatG2742, butG2532 it witherethG3583 the grassG5528, andG2532 the flowerG438 thereofG846 fallethG1601, andG2532 the graceG2143 of the fashionG4383 of itG846 perishethG622: soG3779 alsoG2532 shallG3133 the rich manG4145 fade awayG3133 inG1722 hisG846 waysG4197.
BlessedG3107 is the manG435 thatG3739 endurethG5278 temptationG3986: forG3754 when he is triedG1384+G1096, he shall receiveG2983 the crownG4735 of lifeG2222, whichG3739 the LordG2962 hath promisedG1861 to them that loveG25 himG846.
LetG3004 no manG3367 sayG3004 when he is temptedG3985+G3754, I am temptedG3985 ofG575 GodG2316: forG1063 GodG2316 cannot be temptedG551+G2076 with evilG2556, neitherG1161 temptethG3985 heG846+G3985 any manG3762: {evil: or, evils}
ButG1161 every manG1538 is temptedG3985, when he is drawn awayG1828 ofG5259 his ownG2398 lustG1939, andG2532 enticedG1185.
ThenG1534 when lustG1939 hath conceivedG4815, it bringeth forthG5088 sinG266: andG1161 sinG266, when it is finishedG658, bringeth forthG616 deathG2288.
DoG4105 notG3361 errG4105, myG3450 belovedG27 brethrenG80.
EveryG3956 goodG18 giftG1394 andG2532 everyG3956 perfectG5046 giftG1434 isG2076 from aboveG509, and cometh downG2597 fromG575 the FatherG3962 of lightsG5457, withG3844 whomG3739 isG1762 noG3756 variablenessG3883, neitherG2228 shadowG644 of turningG5157.
Of his own willG1014 begat heG616 usG2248 with the wordG3056 of truthG225, thatG1519 weG2248 should beG1511 a kindG5100 of firstfruitsG536 of hisG846 creaturesG2938.
WhereforeG5620, myG3450 belovedG27 brethrenG80, letG2077 everyG3956 manG444 beG2077 swiftG5036 toG1519 hearG191, slowG1021 toG1519 speakG2980, slowG1021 toG1519 wrathG3709:
ForG1063 the wrathG3709 of manG435 workethG2716 notG3756 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316.
WhereforeG1352 lay apartG659 allG3956 filthinessG4507 andG2532 superfluityG4050 of naughtinessG2549, and receiveG1209 withG1722 meeknessG4240 the engraftedG1721 wordG3056, whichG3588 is ableG1410 to saveG4982 yourG5216 soulsG5590.
ButG1161 be yeG1096 doersG4163 of the wordG3056, andG2532 notG3361 hearersG202 onlyG3440, deceivingG3884 your own selvesG1438.
ForG3754 if anyG1536 beG2076 a hearerG202 of the wordG3056, andG2532 notG3756 a doerG4163, heG3778 is likeG1503 unto a manG435 beholdingG2657 hisG846 naturalG1078 faceG4383 inG1722 a glassG2072:
ForG1063 he beholdethG2657 himselfG1438, andG2532 goeth his wayG565, andG2532 straightwayG2112 forgettethG1950 what manner of manG3697 he wasG2258.
ButG1161 whoso lookethG3879 intoG1519 the perfectG5046 lawG3551 of libertyG1657, andG2532 continuethG3887 therein, heG3778 beingG1096 notG3756 a forgetfulG1953 hearerG202, butG235 a doerG4163 of the workG2041, this manG3778 shall beG2071 blessedG3107 inG1722 hisG846 deedG4162. {deed: or, doing}
If any manG1536 amongG1722 youG5213 seemG1380 to beG1511 religiousG2357, and bridlethG5468 notG3361 hisG846 tongueG1100, butG235 deceivethG538 his ownG846 heartG2588, this man'sG5127 religionG2356 is vainG3152.
PureG2513 religionG2356 andG2532 undefiledG283 beforeG3844 GodG2316 andG2532 the FatherG3962 isG2076 thisG3778, To visitG1980 the fatherlessG3737 andG2532 widowsG5503 inG1722 theirG846 afflictionG2347, and to keepG5083 himselfG1438 unspottedG784 fromG575 the worldG2889.
Querverweise zu Jakobus 1,5 Jak 1,5
And I have filledH4390 him with the spiritH7307 of GodH430, in wisdomH2451, and in understandingH8394, and in knowledgeH1847, and in all manner of workmanshipH4399,
EveryG3956 goodG18 giftG1394 andG2532 everyG3956 perfectG5046 giftG1434 isG2076 from aboveG509, and cometh downG2597 fromG575 the FatherG3962 of lightsG5457, withG3844 whomG3739 isG1762 noG3756 variablenessG3883, neitherG2228 shadowG644 of turningG5157.
ThenG5119 began heG756 to upbraidG3679 the citiesG4172 whereinG1722+G3739 mostG4118 of hisG846 mighty worksG1411 were doneG1096, becauseG3754 they repentedG3340 notG3756:
And I, behold, I have givenH5414 with him AholiabH171, the sonH1121 of AhisamachH294, of the tribeH4294 of DanH1835: and in the heartsH3820 of all that are wiseH2450 heartedH3820 I have putH5414 wisdomH2451, that they may makeH6213 all that I have commandedH6680 thee;
ButG1161 the wisdomG4678 that is from aboveG509 isG2076 firstG4412 pureG3303+G53, thenG1899 peaceableG1516, gentleG1933, and easy to be intreatedG2138, fullG3324 of mercyG1656 andG2532 goodG18 fruitsG2590, without partialityG87, andG2532 without hypocrisyG505. {partiality: or, wrangling}
AfterwardG5305 he appearedG5319 unto the elevenG1733 as theyG846 sat at meatG345, andG2532 upbraidedG3679 them with theirG846 unbeliefG570 andG2532 hardness of heartG4641, becauseG3754 they believedG4100 notG3756 them which had seenG2300 himG846 after he was risenG1453. {at meat: or, together}
Then wroughtH6213 BezaleelH1212 and AholiabH171, and every wiseH2450 heartedH3820 manH376, in whomH1992 the LORDH3068 putH5414 wisdomH2451 and understandingH8394 to knowH3045 how to workH6213 all manner of workH4399 for the serviceH5656 of the sanctuaryH6944, according to all that the LORDH3068 had commandedH6680.
And MosesH4872 calledH7121 BezaleelH1212 and AholiabH171, and every wiseH2450 heartedH3820 manH376, in whose heartH3820 the LORDH3068 had putH5414 wisdomH2451, even every one whose heartH3820 stirred him upH5375 to comeH7126 unto the workH4399 to doH6213 it:
And they receivedH3947 ofH6440 MosesH4872 all the offeringH8641, which the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 had broughtH935 for the workH4399 of the serviceH5656 of the sanctuaryH6944, to makeH6213 it withal. And they broughtH935 yet unto him free offeringsH5071 every morningH1242.
And all the wise menH2450, that wroughtH6213 all the workH4399 of the sanctuaryH6944, cameH935 every manH376 from his workH4399 which they madeH6213;
ConfessG1843 your faultsG3900 one to anotherG240, andG2532 prayG2172 oneG240 forG5228 anotherG240, thatG3704 ye may be healedG2390. The effectual ferventG1754 prayerG1162 of a righteous manG1342 availethG2480 muchG4183.
AndG2532 he aroseG450, and cameG2064 toG4314 hisG1438 fatherG3962. ButG1161 when heG846 was yetG2089 a great wayG3112 offG568, hisG846 fatherG3962 sawG1492 himG846, andG2532 had compassionG4697, andG2532 ranG5143, and fellG1968 onG1909 hisG846 neckG5137, andG2532 kissedG2705 himG846.
AndG1161 the sonG5207 saidG2036 unto himG846, FatherG3962, I have sinnedG264 againstG1519 heavenG3772, andG2532 inG1799 thyG4675 sightG1799, andG2532 amG1510 no moreG3765 worthyG514 to be calledG2564 thyG4675 sonG5207.
ButG1161 the fatherG3962 saidG2036 toG4314 hisG846 servantsG1401, Bring forthG1627 the bestG4413 robeG4749, andG2532 put it onG1746 himG846; andG2532 putG1325 a ringG1146 onG1519 hisG846 handG5495, andG2532 shoesG5266 onG1519 his feetG4228:
And now, O LORDH3068 my GodH430, thou hast made thy servantH5650 kingH4427 instead of DavidH1732 my fatherH1: and I am but a littleH6996 childH5288: I knowH3045 not how to go outH3318 or come inH935.
And thy servantH5650 is in the midstH8432 of thy peopleH5971 which thou hast chosenH977, a greatH7227 peopleH5971, that cannot be numberedH4487 nor countedH5608 for multitudeH7230.
GiveH5414 therefore thy servantH5650 an understandingH8085 heartH3820 to judgeH8199 thy peopleH5971, that I may discernH995 between goodH2896 and badH7451: for who is ableH3201 to judgeH8199 this thy so greatH3515 a peopleH5971? {understanding: Heb. hearing}
Only the LORDH3068 giveH5414 thee wisdomH7922 and understandingH998, and give thee chargeH6680 concerning IsraelH3478, that thou mayest keepH8104 the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
And GodH430 saidH559 unto him, Because thou hast askedH7592 this thingH1697, and hast not askedH7592 for thyself longH7227 lifeH3117; neither hast askedH7592 richesH6239 for thyself, nor hast askedH7592 the lifeH5315 of thine enemiesH341; but hast askedH7592 for thyself understandingH995 to discernH8085 judgmentH4941; {long life: Heb. many days} {discern: Heb. hear}
GiveH5414 me now wisdomH2451 and knowledgeH4093, that I may go outH3318 and come inH935 beforeH6440 this peopleH5971: for who can judgeH8199 this thy peopleH5971, that is so greatH1419?
Behold, I have doneH6213 according to thy wordsH1697: lo, I have givenH5414 thee a wiseH2450 and an understandingH995 heartH3820; so that there was none like thee beforeH6440 thee, neither afterH310 thee shall any ariseH6965 like unto thee.
Yea, if thou criestH7121 after knowledgeH998, and liftest upH5414 thy voiceH6963 for understandingH8394; {liftest…: Heb. givest thy voice}
If thou seekestH1245 her as silverH3701, and searchestH2664 for her as for hid treasuresH4301;
Then shalt thou understandH995 the fearH3374 of the LORDH3068, and findH4672 the knowledgeH1847 of GodH430.
For the LORDH3068 givethH5414 wisdomH2451: out of his mouthH6310 cometh knowledgeH1847 and understandingH8394.
But whereH370 shall wisdomH2451 be foundH4672? and where is the placeH4725 of understandingH998?
ManH582 knowethH3045 not the priceH6187 thereof; neither is it foundH4672 in the landH776 of the livingH2416.
The depthH8415 saithH559, It is not in me: and the seaH3220 saithH559, It is not with me.
It cannot be gottenH5414 for goldH5458, neither shall silverH3701 be weighedH8254 for the priceH4242 thereof. {It…: Heb. Fine gold shall not be given for it}
It cannot be valuedH5541 with the goldH3800 of OphirH211, with the preciousH3368 onyxH7718, or the sapphireH5601.
The goldH2091 and the crystalH2137 cannot equalH6186 it: and the exchangeH8545 of it shall not be for jewelsH3627 of fine goldH6337. {jewels…: or, vessels of}
No mentionH2142 shall be made of coralH7215, or of pearlsH1378: for the priceH4901 of wisdomH2451 is above rubiesH6443. {coral: or, Ramoth}
The topazH6357 of EthiopiaH3568 shall not equalH6186 it, neither shall it be valuedH5541 with pureH2889 goldH3800.
WhenceH370 then comethH935 wisdomH2451? and where is the placeH4725 of understandingH998?
Seeing it is hidH5956 from the eyesH5869 of all livingH2416, and kept closeH5641 from the fowlsH5775 of the airH8064. {air: or, heaven}
DestructionH11 and deathH4194 sayH559, We have heardH8085 the fameH8088 thereof with our earsH241.
GodH430 understandethH995 the wayH1870 thereof, and he knowethH3045 the placeH4725 thereof.
For he lookethH5027 to the endsH7098 of the earthH776, and seethH7200 under the whole heavenH8064;
To makeH6213 the weightH4948 for the windsH7307; and he weighethH8505 the watersH4325 by measureH4060.
When he madeH6213 a decreeH2706 for the rainH4306, and a wayH1870 for the lightningH2385 of the thunderH6963:
Then did he seeH7200 it, and declareH5608 it; he preparedH3559 it, yea, and searched it outH2713. {declare…: or, number it}
And unto manH120 he saidH559, Behold, the fearH3374 of the LordH136, that is wisdomH2451; and to departH5493 from evilH7451 is understandingH998.
TrustH982 in the LORDH3068 with all thine heartH3820; and leanH8172 not unto thine own understandingH998.
In all thy waysH1870 acknowledgeH3045 him, and he shall directH3474 thy pathsH734.
Be not wiseH2450 in thine own eyesH5869: fearH3372 the LORDH3068, and departH5493 from evilH7451.
Let the wickedH7563 forsakeH5800 his wayH1870, and the unrighteousH205 manH376 his thoughtsH4284: and let him returnH7725 unto the LORDH3068, and he will have mercyH7355 upon him; and to our GodH430, for he will abundantlyH7235 pardonH5545. {the unrighteous…: Heb. the man of iniquity} {abundantly…: Heb. multiply to pardon}
Whoso is simpleH6612, let him turn inH5493 hither: as for him that wantethH2638 understandingH3820, she saithH559 to him,
ComeH3212, eatH3898 of my breadH3899, and drinkH8354 of the wineH3196 which I have mingledH4537.
ForsakeH5800 the foolishH6612, and liveH2421; and goH833 in the wayH1870 of understandingH998.
Then shall ye callH7121 upon me, and ye shall goH1980 and prayH6419 unto me, and I will hearkenH8085 unto you.
Then saidH559 I, AhH162, LordH136 GODH3069! behold, I cannotH3045 speakH1696: for I am a childH5288.
And ye shall seekH1245 me, and findH4672 me, when ye shall searchH1875 for me with all your heartH3824.
But the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, SayH559 not, I am a childH5288: for thou shalt goH3212 to all that I shall sendH7971 thee, and whatsoever I commandH6680 thee thou shalt speakH1696.
That they would desireH1156 merciesH7359 ofH4481+H6925 the GodH426 of heavenH8065 concerningH5922 thisH1836 secretH7328; that DanielH1841 and his fellowsH2269 should notH3809 perishH7 withH5974 the restH7606 of the wiseH2445 men of BabylonH895. {of the God: Cald. from before God} {that Daniel…: or, that they should not destroy Daniel, etc}
ThenH116 was the secretH7328 revealedH1541 unto DanielH1841 in a nightH3916 visionH2376. ThenH116 DanielH1841 blessedH1289 the GodH426 of heavenH8065.
DanielH1841 answeredH6032 and saidH560, BlessedH1289 beH1934 the nameH8036 of GodH426 forH4481 everH5957 and everH5705+H5957: for wisdomH2452 and mightH1370 areH1932 his:
And he changethH8133 the timesH5732 and the seasonsH2166: he removethH5709 kingsH4430, and setteth upH6966 kingsH4430: he givethH3052 wisdomH2452 unto the wiseH2445, and knowledgeH4486 to them that knowH3046 understandingH999:
He revealethH1541 the deepH5994 and secret thingsH5642: he knowethH3046 whatH4101 is in the darknessH2816, and the lightH5094 dwellethH8271 with himH5974.
ToG3739 the oneG3303 we are the savourG3744 of deathG2288 untoG1519 deathG2288; andG1161 to the otherG3739 the savourG3744 of lifeG2222 untoG1519 lifeG2222. AndG2532 whoG5101 is sufficientG2425 forG4314 these thingsG5023?
AskG154, andG2532 it shall be givenG1325 youG5213; seekG2212, andG2532 ye shall findG2147; knockG2925, andG2532 it shall be openedG455 unto youG5213:
ForG1063 every oneG3956 that askethG154 receivethG2983; andG2532 he that seekethG2212 findethG2147; andG2532 to him that knockethG2925 it shall be openedG455.
OrG2228 whatG5101 manG444 isG2076 there ofG1537 youG5216, whomG3739 ifG1437 hisG846 sonG5207 askG154 breadG740, will he giveG3361+G1929 himG846 a stoneG3037?
OrG2532 ifG1437 he askG154 a fishG2486, will he giveG3361+G1929 himG846 a serpentG3789?
IfG1487 yeG5210 thenG3767, beingG5607 evilG4190, knowG1492 how to giveG1325 goodG18 giftsG1390 unto yourG5216 childrenG5043, how muchG4214 moreG3123 shall yourG5216 FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 heavenG3772 giveG1325 good thingsG18 to them that askG154 himG846?
AndG2504 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, AskG154, andG2532 it shall be givenG1325 youG5213; seekG2212, andG2532 ye shall findG2147; knockG2925, andG2532 it shall be openedG455 unto youG5213.
ForG1063 every oneG3956 that askethG154 receivethG2983; andG2532 he that seekethG2212 findethG2147; andG2532 to him that knockethG2925 it shall be openedG455.
IfG1161 a sonG5207 shall askG154 breadG740 of any of youG5216 that is a fatherG3962+G5101, will he giveG1929+G3361 himG846 a stoneG3037? orG1499 if he ask a fishG2486, will heG1929 forG473 a fishG2486 giveG1929+G3361 himG846 a serpentG3789?
OrG2228+G2532 ifG1437 he shall askG154 an eggG5609, will he offerG3361+G1929 himG846 a scorpionG4651? {offer: Gr. give}
IfG1487 yeG5210 thenG3767, beingG5225 evilG4190, knowG1492 how to giveG1325 goodG18 giftsG1390 unto yourG5216 childrenG5043: how muchG4214 moreG3123 shallG1325 your heavenlyG3772 FatherG3962+G1537 giveG1325 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 to them that askG154 himG846?
JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036 unto herG846, IfG1487 thou knewestG1492 the giftG1431 of GodG2316, andG2532 whoG5101 it isG2076 that saithG3004 to theeG4671, GiveG1325 meG3427 to drinkG4095; thouG4771 wouldestG302 have askedG154 of himG846, andG2532 he wouldG302 have givenG1325 theeG4671 livingG2198 waterG5204.
AndG3739+G2532 whatsoeverG3748+G302 ye shall askG154 inG1722 myG3450 nameG3686, thatG5124 will I doG4160, thatG2443 the FatherG3962 may be glorifiedG1392 inG1722 the SonG5207.
IfG1437 ye abideG3306 inG1722 meG1698, andG2532 myG3450 wordsG4487 abideG3306 inG1722 youG5213, ye shall askG154 whatG3739+G1437 ye willG2309, andG2532 it shall be doneG1096 unto youG5213.
AndG2532 inG1722 thatG1565 dayG2250 ye shallG3756 askG2065 meG1691 nothingG3762. VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG5213+G3754, WhatsoeverG3745+G302 ye shall askG154 the FatherG3962 inG1722 myG3450 nameG3686, he will giveG1325 it youG5213.
HithertoG2193+G737 have ye askedG154 nothingG3756+G3762 inG1722 myG3450 nameG3686: askG154, andG2532 ye shall receiveG2983, thatG2443 yourG5216 joyG5479 may beG5600 fullG4137.
AndG2532 whatsoeverG3739+G1437 we askG154, we receiveG2983 ofG3844 himG846, becauseG3754 we keepG5083 hisG846 commandmentsG1785, andG2532 doG4160 those things that are pleasingG701 in hisG846 sightG1799.
