1:2 Count it all joy, my brethrenbrothers, when yeyou fall into manifoldvarious temptations;,
1:3 knowing that the provingtesting of your faith workethproduces patienceendurance.
1:4 AndLet letendurance patience have its perfect work, that yeyou may be perfect and entirecomplete, lacking in nothing.
1:5 But if any of you lackethlacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who givethgives to all liberally and upbraidethwithout not;reproach, and it shallwill be given to him.
1:6 But let him ask in faith, nothingwithout any doubting:, for he thatwho doubtethdoubts is like thea surgewave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.
1:7 For let not that man shouldnt think that he shallwill receive anything offrom the Lord;.
1:8 He is a doublemindeddouble minded man, unstable in all his ways.
1:9 ButLet let the brother ofin lowhumble degreecircumstances glory in his high estate:position;
1:10 and the rich, in that he is made low:humble, because aslike the flower ofin the grass, he shallwill pass away.
1:11 For the sun arisetharises with the scorching wind, and witherethwithers the grass; and the flower thereofin fallethit falls, and the gracebeauty of theits fashionappearance ofperishes. itSo perisheth: so also shall the rich man will also fade away in his goingspursuits.
1:12 Blessed is thea manperson thatwho endurethendures temptation;, for when he hathhas been approved, he shallwill receive the crown of life, which the Lord promised to themthose thatwho love him.
1:13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted ofby God;, for God cannotcant be tempted withby evil, and he himself temptethtempts no man:one.
1:14 butBut each manone is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed.
1:15 Then the lust, when it hathhas conceived, bearethbears sin:. andThe the sin, when it is fullgrownfull grown, bringethproduces forth death.
1:16 BeDont notbe deceived, my beloved brethrenbrothers.
1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, neithernor turning shadow that is cast by turning.
1:18 Of his own will he broughtgave birth to us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.
1:19 YeSo, know thisthen, my beloved brethren.brothers, But let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to wrath:anger;
1:20 for the wrathanger of man workethdoesnt notproduce the righteousness of God.
1:21 WhereforeTherefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with meeknesshumility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not only hearers only, deluding your own selves.
1:23 For if anyanyone one is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholdinglooking at his natural face in a mirror:;
1:24 for he beholdethsees himself, and goethgoes away, and straightwayimmediately forgettethforgets what mannerkind of man he was.
1:25 But he thatwho lookethlooks into the perfect law, the law of liberty,freedom and so continuethcontinues, not being not a hearer thatwho forgettethforgets but a doer thatof workeththe work, this man shallwill be blessed in hiswhat doinghe does.
1:26 If anyanyone manamong thinkethyou thinks himself to be religious, while he bridlethdoesnt notbridle his tongue, but deceivethdeceives his heart, this mans religion is vainworthless.
1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this,: to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unspottedunstained fromby the world.
2:1 My brethrenbrothers, dont hold not the faith of our glorious Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of personspartiality.

2:3 and yeyou havepay regardspecial attention to him thatwho wearethwears the fine clothing, and say, Sit thou here in a good place; and yeyou saytell to the poor man, Stand thou there, or sitSit underby my footstool;
2:4 dohavent yeyou notshown makepartiality distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
2:5 HearkenListen, my beloved brethren;brothers. didDidnt not God choose themthose thatwho are poor asin tothis the world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdomKingdom which he promised to themthose thatwho love him?
2:6 But yeyou have dishonored the poor man. DoDont not the rich oppress you, and themselvespersonally drag you before the judgment seatscourts?
2:7 DoDont not they blaspheme the honorable name by which yeyou are called?
2:8 HowbeitHowever, if yeyou fulfilfulfill the royal law, according to the scriptureScripture, ThouYou shaltshall love thyyour neighbor as thyselfyourself, yeyou do well:.
2:9 butBut if yeyou haveshow respect of personspartiality, yeyou commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.
2:10 For whosoeverwhoever shallkeeps keep the whole law, and yet stumblestumbles in one point, he ishas become guilty of all.
2:11 For he thatwho said, Do not commit adultery, also said also, Do not killcommit murder. Now if thouyou dostdo not commit adultery, but killestdo murder, thouyou arthave become a transgressor of the law.

2:16 and one of you saytells unto them, Go in peace,. beBe ye warmed and filled; and yet yeyou didnt give them not the things needful to the body; needs, what dothgood is it profit?
2:17 Even so faith, if it havehas notno works, is dead in itself.
2:18 YeaYes, a man will say, ThouYou hasthave faith, and I have works:. showShow me thyyour faith apartwithout from thy works, and I bywill myshow worksyou willmy showfaith theeby my faithworks.
2:19 ThouYou believestbelieve that God is one;. thouYou doestdo well:. theThe demons also believe, —and shudder.
2:20 But wiltdo thouyou want to know, O vain man, that faith apart from works is barrendead?
2:21 WasWasnt not Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son uponon the altar?

2:23 andSo the scriptureScripture was fulfilled which saithsays, And Abraham believed God, and it was reckonedaccounted untoto him foras righteousness;, and he was called the friend of God.
2:24 YeYou see then that by works a man is justified, and not only by faith.
2:25 AndIn inthe likesame mannerway, waswasnt not also Rahab the harlotprostitute also justified by works, inwhen that she received the messengers, and sent them out another way?
