James 1:1-7 ▼

1 Iames a seruaunt of God, and of the lorde Iesus Christ, to ye twelue tribes which are scattred abroade, greetyng.

2 My brethren, count it all ioy whe ye fall into diuers temptations:

3 Knowyng (this) that the trying of your fayth worketh patience:

4 And let patience haue her perfect worke, that ye may be perfect & sounde, lackyng nothyng.

5 If any of you lacke wisdome, let him aske of God, that geueth to all men indifferentlie, and casteth no man in the teeth: and it shalbe geuen hym.

6 But let hym aske in fayth, nothyng waueryng: For he that wauereth, is like a waue of the sea, tost of the wynde, and caryed with violence.

7 Neither let that man thynke that he shall receaue any thyng of the Lorde.
