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.

ThereforeG3767 to him that knowethG1492 to doG4160 goodG2570, andG2532 doethG4160 it notG3361, to himG846 it isG2076 sinG266.
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.
NotG3756 every oneG3956 that saithG3004 unto meG3427, LordG2962, LordG2962, shall enterG1525 intoG1519 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772; butG235 he that doethG4160 the willG2307 of myG3450 FatherG3962 which is inG1722 heavenG3772.
ManyG4183 will sayG2046 to meG3427 inG1722 thatG1565 dayG2250, LordG2962, LordG2962, have weG4395 notG3756 prophesiedG4395 in thyG4674 nameG3686? andG2532 in thyG4674 nameG3686 have cast outG1544 devilsG1140? andG2532 in thyG4674 nameG3686 doneG4160 manyG4183 wonderful worksG1411?
AndG2532 thenG5119 will I professG3670 unto themG846+G3754, I neverG3763 knewG1097 youG5209: departG672 fromG575 meG1700, ye that workG2038 iniquityG458.
ThereforeG3767 whosoeverG3956+G3748 hearethG191 theseG5128 sayingsG3056 of mineG3450, andG2532 doethG4160 themG846, I will likenG3666 himG846 unto a wiseG5429 manG435, whichG3748 builtG3618 hisG846 houseG3614 uponG1909 a rockG4073:
AndG2532 the rainG1028 descendedG2597, andG2532 the floodsG4215 cameG2064, andG2532 the windsG417 blewG4154, andG2532 beat uponG4363 thatG1565 houseG3614; andG2532 it fellG4098 notG3756: forG1063 it was foundedG2311 uponG1909 a rockG4073.
He feedethH7462 on ashesH665: a deceivedH2048 heartH3820 hath turned him asideH5186, that he cannot deliverH5337 his soulH5315, nor sayH559, Is there not a lieH8267 in my right handH3225?
ForG1063 whosoeverG3748+G302 shall doG4160 the willG2307 of myG3450 FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 heavenG3772, the sameG846 isG2076 myG3450 brotherG80, andG2532 sisterG79, andG2532 motherG3384.
The prideH2087 of thine heartH3820 hath deceivedH5377 thee, thou that dwellestH7931 in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, whose habitationH3427 is highH4791; that saithH559 in his heartH3820, Who shall bring me downH3381 to the groundH776?
TeachingG1321 themG846 to observeG5083 all thingsG3956 whatsoeverG3745 I have commandedG1781 youG5213: andG2532, loG2400, IG1473 amG1510 withG3326 youG5216 alwayG3956+G2250, even untoG2193 the endG4930 of the worldG165. AmenG281.
LetG1818 no manG3367 deceiveG1818 himselfG1438. If any manG1536 amongG1722 youG5213 seemethG1380 to beG1511 wiseG4680 inG1722 thisG5129 worldG165, let him becomeG1096 a foolG3474, thatG2443 he may beG1096 wiseG4680.
AndG1161 whyG5101 call yeG2564 meG3165, LordG2962, LordG2962, andG2532 doG4160 notG3756 the things whichG3739 I sayG3004?
WhosoeverG3956 comethG2064 toG4314 meG3165, andG2532 hearethG191 myG3450 sayingsG3056, andG2532 doethG4160 themG846, I will shewG5263 youG5213 to whomG5101 he isG2076 likeG3664:
He isG2076 likeG3664 a manG444 whichG3739 builtG3618 an houseG3614, andG2532 diggedG4626 deepG900, andG2532 laidG5087 the foundationG2310 onG1909 a rockG4073: andG1161 when the floodG4132 aroseG1096, the streamG4215 beat vehementlyG4366 upon thatG1565 houseG3614, andG2532 couldG2480 notG3756 shakeG4531 itG846: forG1063 it was foundedG2311 uponG1909 a rockG4073.
Know yeG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 the unrighteousG94 shallG2816 notG3756 inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316? BeG4105 notG3361 deceivedG4105: neitherG3777 fornicatorsG4205, norG3777 idolatersG1496, norG3777 adulterersG3432, norG3777 effeminateG3120, norG3777 abusers of themselves with mankindG733,
ButG1161 heG846 saidG2036, Yea ratherG3304, blessedG3107 are they that hearG191 the wordG3056 of GodG2316, andG2532 keepG5442 itG846.
AndG1161 thatG1565 servantG1401, whichG3588 knewG1097 hisG1438 lord'sG2962 willG2307, andG2532 preparedG2090 notG3361 himself, neitherG3366 didG4160 accordingG4314 to hisG846 willG2307, shall be beatenG1194 with manyG4183 stripes.
ForG1063 if a manG1536 think himselfG1380 to beG1511 somethingG5100, when he isG5607 nothingG3367, he deceivethG5422 himselfG1438.
ButG1161 he that knewG1097 notG3361, andG1161 did commitG4160 things worthyG514 of stripesG4127, shall be beatenG1194 with fewG3641 stripes. ForG1161 unto whomsoeverG3739+G3956 muchG4183 is givenG1325, ofG3844 himG846 shall be muchG4183 requiredG2212: andG2532 to whom menG3739 have committedG3908 muchG4183, of himG846 they will askG154 the moreG4055.
BeG4105 notG3361 deceivedG4105; GodG2316 isG3456 notG3756 mockedG3456: forG1063 whatsoeverG3739+G1437 a manG444 sowethG4687, thatG5124 shall heG2325 alsoG2532 reapG2325.
ButG1161 evilG4190 menG444 andG2532 seducersG1114 shall waxG4298 worse and worseG1909+G5501, deceivingG4105, andG2532 being deceivedG4105.
(ForG1063 notG3756 the hearersG202 of the lawG3551 are justG1342 beforeG3844 GodG2316, butG235 the doersG4163 of the lawG3551 shall be justifiedG1344.
ForG1063 we ourselvesG2249 alsoG2532 wereG2258+G453 sometimesG4218 foolishG453, disobedientG545, deceivedG4105, servingG1398 diversG4164 lustsG1939 andG2532 pleasuresG2237, livingG1236 inG1722 maliceG2549 andG2532 envyG5355, hatefulG4767, and hatingG3404 one anotherG240.
FinallyG3063, brethrenG80, whatsoever thingsG3745 areG2076 trueG227, whatsoever thingsG3745 are honestG4586, whatsoever thingsG3745 are justG1342, whatsoever thingsG3745 are pureG53, whatsoever thingsG3745 are lovelyG4375, whatsoever thingsG3745 are of good reportG2163; if there be anyG1536 virtueG703, andG2532 if there be anyG1536 praiseG1868, thinkG3049 on these thingsG5023. {honest: or, venerable}
And shall receiveG2865 the rewardG3408 of unrighteousnessG93, as they that countG2233 it pleasureG2237 to riotG5172 inG1722 the day timeG2250. SpotsG4696 they are andG2532 blemishesG3470, sporting themselvesG1792 withG1722 their ownG846 deceivingsG539 while they feastG4910 with youG5213;
AndG2532 whatsoeverG3748+G3956 ye doG302+G4160 inG1722 wordG3056 orG2228+G1722 deedG2041, do allG3956 inG1722 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, giving thanksG2168 to GodG2316 andG2532 the FatherG3962 byG1223 himG846.
IfG1437 we sayG2036 thatG3754 we haveG2192 noG3756 sinG266, we deceiveG4105 ourselvesG1438, andG2532 the truthG225 isG2076 notG3756 inG1722 usG2254.
AndG2532 herebyG1722+G5129 we do knowG1097 thatG3754 we knowG1097 himG846, ifG1437 we keepG5083 hisG846 commandmentsG1785.
AndG2532 the greatG3173 dragonG1404 was cast outG906, that oldG744 serpentG3789, calledG2564 the DevilG1228, andG2532 SatanG4567, whichG3588 deceivethG4105 the wholeG3650 worldG3625: he was cast outG906 intoG1519 the earthG1093, andG2532 hisG846 angelsG32 were cast outG906 withG3326 himG846.
Little childrenG5040, letG4105 no manG3367 deceiveG4105 youG5209: he that doethG4160 righteousnessG1343 isG2076 righteousG1342, even asG2531 heG1565 isG2076 righteousG1342.
