James 1:1-8 ▼

1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes in the Diaspora: Greetings.

2 Esteem it all joy, my brothers, when you? might fall into various trials,

3 knowing that the testing of your? faith produces perseverance.

4 And let endurance have its perfect work, so that you? may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

5 Now if any of you? lacks wisdom, let him ask from God, the One giving generously to all and not reproaching, and it will be given to him.

6 But let him ask in faith, doubting nothing, for the one doubting is like a wave of the sea, being blown and being tossed by the wind.

7 For let that man not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord.

8 He is a double-souled man, unstable in all his ways.
