| James 1:1 | James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting. |
| James 1:2 | My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; |
| James 1:3 | Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. |
| James 1:4 | But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. |
| James 1:5 | 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. |
| James 1:6 | 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. |
| James 1:7 | For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. |
| James 1:8 | A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. |
| James 1:9 | Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted: |
| James 1:10 | But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away. |
| James 1:11 | 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. |
| James 1:12 | 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. |
| James 1:13 | Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: |
| James 1:14 | But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. |
| James 1:15 | Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. |
| James 1:16 | Do not err, my beloved brethren. |
| James 1:17 | Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. |
| James 1:18 | Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures. |
| James 1:19 | Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: |
| James 1:20 | For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. |
| James 1:21 | Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. |
| James 1:22 | But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. |
| James 1:23 | For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: |
| James 1:24 | For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. |
| James 1:25 | But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. |
| James 1:26 | If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain. |
| James 1:27 | Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. |
| James 2:1 | My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons. |
| James 2:2 | For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment; |
| James 2:3 | And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool: |
| James 2:4 | Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts? |
| James 2:5 | Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him? |
| James 2:6 | But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats? |
| James 2:7 | Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called? |
| James 2:8 | If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: |
| James 2:9 | But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. |
| James 2:10 | For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. |
| James 2:11 | For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law. |
