Because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance.Knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
If any of you is lacking in wisdom, ask God, who gives to all generously and ungrudgingly, and it will be given you.But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
But ask in faith, never doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind.But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.
Let the believer who is lowly boast in being raised up, and the rich in being brought low, because the rich will disappear like a flower in the field.Let the brother in humble circumstances glory in his high position; and the rich, in that he is made humble, because like the flower in the grass, he will pass away.
Blessed is anyone who endures temptation. Such a one has stood the test and will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.Blessed is a person who endures temptation, for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord promised to those who love him.
No one, when tempted, should say, “I am being tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil and he himself tempts no one.Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God can’t be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.
Every generous act of giving, with every perfect gift, is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation nor turning shadow.
In fulfillment of his own purpose he gave us birth by the word of truth, so that we would become a kind of first fruits of his creatures.Of his own will he gave birth to us by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.
You must understand this, my beloved: let everyone be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger.So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger.
Therefore rid yourselves of all sordidness and rank growth of wickedness, and welcome with meekness the implanted word that has the power to save your souls.Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
But be doers of the word, and not merely hearers who deceive themselves.But be doers of the word, and not only hearers, deluding your own selves.
But those who look into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and persevere, being not hearers who forget but doers who act—they will be blessed in their doing.But he who looks into the perfect law of freedom and continues, not being a hearer who forgets but a doer of the work, this man will be blessed in what he does.
If any think they are religious, and do not bridle their tongues but deceive their hearts, their religion is worthless.If anyone among you thinks himself to be religious while he doesn’t bridle his tongue, but deceives his heart, this man’s religion is worthless.
Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to care for orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
