Jam 01:01 ¶ James <2385>, a servant <1401> of God <2316> and <2532> of the Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, to the twelve <1427> tribes <5443> which <1722> are scattered abroad <1290>, greeting <5463> (5721). Jam 01:02 ¶ My <3450> brethren <80>, count it <2233> (5662) all <3956> joy <5479> when <3752> ye fall <4045> (5632) into divers <4164> temptations <3986>; Jam 01:03 Knowing <1097> (5723) this, that <3754> the trying <1383> of your <5216> faith <4102> worketh <2716> (5736) patience <5281>. Jam 01:04 But <1161> let <2192> <0> patience <5281> have <2192> (5720) her perfect <5046> work <2041>, that <2443> ye may be <5600> (5753) perfect <5046> and <2532> entire <3648>, wanting <3007> (5746) nothing <1722> <3367>. Jam 01:05 <1161> If any <1536> of you <5216> lack <3007> (5743) wisdom <4678>, let him ask <154> (5720) of <3844> God <2316>, that giveth <1325> (5723) to all <3956> men liberally <574>, and <2532> upbraideth <3679> (5723) not <3361>; and <2532> it shall be given <1325> (5701) him <846>. Jam 01:06 But <1161> let him ask <154> (5720) in <1722> faith <4102>, nothing <3367> wavering <1252> (5734). For <1063> he that wavereth <1252> (5734) is like <1503> (5758) a wave <2830> of the sea <2281> driven with the wind <416> (5746) and <2532> tossed <4494> (5746). Jam 01:07 For <1063> let <3633> <0> not <3361> that <1565> man <444> think <3633> (5737) that <3754> he shall receive <2983> (5695) any thing <5100> of <3844> the Lord <2962>. Jam 01:08 A double minded <1374> man <435> is unstable <182> in <1722> all <3956> his <846> ways <3598>. Jam 01:09 <1161> Let <2744> <0> the brother <80> of low degree <5011> rejoice <2744> (5737) in <1722> that he <846> is exalted <5311>: Jam 01:10 But <1161> the rich <4145>, in <1722> that he <846> is made low <5014>: because <3754> as <5613> the flower <438> of the grass <5528> he shall pass away <3928> (5695). Jam 01:11 For <1063> the sun <2246> is no sooner risen <393> (5656) with <4862> a burning heat <2742>, but <2532> it withereth <3583> (5656) the grass <5528>, and <2532> the flower <438> thereof <846> falleth <1601> (5627), and <2532> the grace <2143> of the fashion <4383> of it <846> perisheth <622> (5639): so <3779> also <2532> shall <3133> <0> the rich man <4145> fade away <3133> (5701) in <1722> his <846> ways <4197>. Jam 01:12 Blessed <3107> is the man <435> that <3739> endureth <5278> (5719) temptation <3986>: for <3754> when he is tried <1384> <1096> (5637), he shall receive <2983> (5695) the crown <4735> of life <2222>, which <3739> the Lord <2962> hath promised <1861> (5662) to them that love <25> (5723) him <846>. Jam 01:13 ¶ Let <3004> <0> no man <3367> say <3004> (5720) when he is tempted <3985> (5746), <3754> I am tempted <3985> (5743) of <575> God <2316>: for <1063> God <2316> cannot be tempted <551> <2076> (5748) with evil <2556>, neither <1161> tempteth <3985> <0> he <846> <3985> (5719) any man <3762>: Jam 01:14 But <1161> every man <1538> is tempted <3985> (5743), when he is drawn away <1828> (5746) of <5259> his own <2398> lust <1939>, and <2532> enticed <1185> (5746). Jam 01:15 Then <1534> when lust <1939> hath conceived <4815> (5631), it bringeth forth <5088> (5719) sin <266>: and <1161> sin <266>, when it is finished <658> (5685), bringeth forth <616> (5719) death <2288>. Jam 01:16 Do <4105> <0> not <3361> err <4105> (5744), my <3450> beloved <27> brethren <80>. Jam 01:17 Every <3956> good <18> gift <1394> and <2532> every <3956> perfect <5046> gift <1434> is <2076> (5748) from above <509>, and cometh down <2597> (5723) from <575> the Father <3962> of lights <5457>, with <3844> whom <3739> is <1762> (5748) no <3756> variableness <3883>, neither <2228> shadow <644> of turning <5157>. Jam 01:18 Of his own will <1014> (5679) begat he <616> (5656) us <2248> with the word <3056> of truth <225>, that <1519> we <2248> should be <1511> (5750) a kind <5100> of firstfruits <536> of his <846> creatures <2938>. Jam 01:19 ¶ Wherefore <5620>, my <3450> beloved <27> brethren <80>, let <2077> <0> every <3956> man <444> be <2077> (5749) swift <5036> to <1519> hear <191> (5658), slow <1021> to <1519> speak <2980> (5658), slow <1021> to <1519> wrath <3709>: Jam 01:20 For <1063> the wrath <3709> of man <435> worketh <2716> (5736) not <3756> the righteousness <1343> of God <2316>. Jam 01:21 Wherefore <1352> lay apart <659> (5642) all <3956> filthiness <4507> and <2532> superfluity <4050> of naughtiness <2549>, and receive <1209> (5663) with <1722> meekness <4240> the engrafted <1721> word <3056>, which <3588> is able <1410> (5740) to save <4982> (5658) your <5216> souls <5590>. Jam 01:22 But <1161> be ye <1096> (5737) doers <4163> of the word <3056>, and <2532> not <3361> hearers <202> only <3440>, deceiving <3884> (5740) your own selves <1438>. Jam 01:23 For <3754> if any <1536> be <2076> (5748) a hearer <202> of the word <3056>, and <2532> not <3756> a doer <4163>, he <3778> is like <1503> (5758) unto a man <435> beholding <2657> (5723) his <846> natural <1078> face <4383> in <1722> a glass <2072>: Jam 01:24 For <1063> he beholdeth <2657> (5656) himself <1438>, and <2532> goeth his way <565> (5754), and <2532> straightway <2112> forgetteth <1950> (5633) what manner of man <3697> he was <2258> (5713). Jam 01:25 But <1161> whoso looketh <3879> (5660) into <1519> the perfect <5046> law <3551> of liberty <1657>, and <2532> continueth <3887> (5660) therein, he <3778> being <1096> (5637) not <3756> a forgetful <1953> hearer <202>, but <235> a doer <4163> of the work <2041>, this man <3778> shall be <2071> (5704) blessed <3107> in <1722> his <846> deed <4162>. Jam 01:26 If any man <1536> among <1722> you <5213> seem <1380> (5719) to be <1511> (5750) religious <2357>, and bridleth <5468> (5723) not <3361> his <846> tongue <1100>, but <235> deceiveth <538> (5723) his own <846> heart <2588>, this man’s <5127> religion <2356> is vain <3152>. Jam 01:27 Pure <2513> religion <2356> and <2532> undefiled <283> before <3844> God <2316> and <2532> the Father <3962> is <2076> (5748) this <3778>, To visit <1980> (5738) the fatherless <3737> and <2532> widows <5503> in <1722> their <846> affliction <2347>, and to keep <5083> (5721) himself <1438> unspotted <784> from <575> the world <2889>. Jam 02:01 ¶ My <3450> brethren <80>, have <2192> (5720) not <3361> the faith <4102> of our <2257> Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, the Lord of glory <1391>, with <1722> respect of persons <4382>. Jam 02:02 For <1063> if <1437> there come <1525> (5632) unto <1519> your <5216> assembly <4864> a man <435> with a gold ring <5554>, in <1722> goodly <2986> apparel <2066>, and <1161> there come in <1525> (5632) also <2532> a poor man <4434> in <1722> vile <4508> raiment <2066>; Jam 02:03 And <2532> ye have respect <1914> (5661) to <1909> him that weareth <5409> (5723) the gay <2986> clothing <2066>, and <2532> say <2036> (5632) unto him <846>, Sit <2521> (5737) thou <4771> here <5602> in a good place <2573>; and <2532> say <2036> (5632) to the poor <4434>, Stand <2476> (5628) thou <4771> there <1563>, or <2228> sit <2521> (5737) here <5602> under <5259> my <3450> footstool <5286>: Jam 02:04 Are ye <1252> <0> not <3756> then <2532> partial <1252> (5681) in <1722> yourselves <1438>, and <2532> are become <1096> (5633) judges <2923> of evil <4190> thoughts <1261>? Jam 02:05 Hearken <191> (5657), my <3450> beloved <27> brethren <80>, Hath <1586> <0> not <3756> God <2316> chosen <1586> (5668) the poor <4434> of this <5127> world <2889> rich <4145> in <1722> faith <4102>, and <2532> heirs <2818> of the kingdom <932> which <3739> he hath promised <1861> (5662) to them that love <25> (5723) him <846>? Jam 02:06 But <1161> ye <5210> have despised <818> (5656) the poor <4434>. Do <2616> <0> not <3756> rich men <4145> oppress <2616> (5719) you <5216>, and <2532> draw <846> <1670> (5719) you <5209> before <1519> the judgment seats <2922>? Jam 02:07 Do <987> <0> not <3756> they <846> blaspheme <987> (5719) that worthy <2570> name <3686> by <1909> the which ye <5209> are called <1941> (5685)? Jam 02:08 ¶ If <1487> <3305> ye fulfil <5055> (5719) the royal <937> law <3551> according to <2596> the scripture <1124>, Thou shalt love <25> (5692) thy <4675> neighbour <4139> as <5613> thyself <4572>, ye do <4160> (5719) well <2573>: Jam 02:09 But <1161> if <1487> ye have respect to persons <4380> (5719), ye commit <2038> (5736) sin <266>, and are convinced <1651> (5746) of <5259> the law <3551> as <5613> transgressors <3848>. Jam 02:10 For <1063> whosoever <3748> shall keep <5083> (5692) the whole <3650> law <3551>, and yet <1161> offend <4417> (5692) in <1722> one <1520> point, he is <1096> (5754) guilty <1777> of all <3956>. Jam 02:11 For <1063> he that said <2036> (5631), Do <3431> <0> not <3361> commit adultery <3431> (5661), said <2036> (5627) also <2532>, Do <5407> <0> not <3361> kill <5407> (5661). Now <1161> if <1487> thou commit <3431> <0> no <3756> adultery <3431> (5692), yet if <1161> thou kill <5407> (5692), thou art become <1096> (5754) a transgressor <3848> of the law <3551>. Jam 02:12 So <3779> speak ye <2980> (5720), and <2532> so <3779> do <4160> (5720), as <5613> they that shall be <3195> (5723) judged <2919> (5745) by <1223> the law <3551> of liberty <1657>. Jam 02:13 For <1063> he shall have judgment <2920> without mercy <448>, that hath shewed <4160> (5660) no <3361> mercy <1656>; and <2532> mercy <1656> rejoiceth against <2620> (5736) judgment <2920>. Jam 02:14 ¶ What <5101> doth it profit <3786>, my <3450> brethren <80>, though <1437> a man <5100> say <3004> (5725) he hath <2192> (5721) faith <4102>, and <1161> have <2192> (5725) not <3361> works <2041>? can <1410> (5736) <3361> faith <4102> save <4982> (5658) him <846>? Jam 02:15 If <1437> <1161> a brother <80> or <2228> sister <79> be <5225> (5725) naked <1131>, and <2532> destitute <3007> (5746) <5600> (5753) of daily <2184> food <5160>, Jam 02:16 And <1161> one <5100> of <1537> you <5216> say <2036> (5632) unto them <846>, Depart <5217> (5720) in <1722> peace <1515>, be ye warmed <2328> (5728) and <2532> filled <5526> (5744); notwithstanding <1161> ye give <1325> (5632) them <846> not <3361> those things which are needful <2006> to the body <4983>; what <5101> doth it profit <3786>? Jam 02:17 Even <2532> so <3779> faith <4102>, if <3362> <0> it hath <2192> (5725) not <3362> works <2041>, is <2076> (5748) dead <3498>, being alone <2596> <1438>. Jam 02:18 Yea <235>, a man <5100> may say <2046> (5692), Thou <4771> hast <2192> (5719) faith <4102>, and I <2504> have <2192> (5719) works <2041>: shew <1166> (5657) me <3427> thy <4675> faith <4102> without <1537> thy <4675> works <2041>, and I <2504> will shew <1166> (5692) thee <4671> my <3450> faith <4102> by <1537> my <3450> works <2041>. Jam 02:19 Thou <4771> believest <4100> (5719) that <3754> there is <2076> (5748) one <1520> God <2316>; thou doest <4160> (5719) well <2573>: the devils <1140> also <2532> believe <4100> (5719), and <2532> tremble <5425> (5719). Jam 02:20 But <1161> wilt <2309> (5719) thou know <1097> (5629), O <5599> vain <2756> man <444>, that <3754> faith <4102> without <5565> works <2041> is <2076> (5748) dead <3498>? Jam 02:21 Was <1344> <0> not <3756> Abraham <11> our <2257> father <3962> justified <1344> (5681) by <1537> works <2041>, when he had offered <399> (5660) Isaac <2464> his <846> son <5207> upon <1909> the altar <2379>? Jam 02:22 Seest thou <991> (5719) how <3754> faith <4102> wrought <4903> (5707) with his <846> works <2041>, and <2532> by <1537> works <2041> was <5048> <0> faith <4102> made perfect <5048> (5681)? Jam 02:23 And <2532> the scripture <1124> was fulfilled <4137> (5681) which saith <3004> (5723), <1161> Abraham <11> believed <4100> (5656) God <2316>, and <2532> it was imputed <3049> (5681) unto him <846> for <1519> righteousness <1343>: and <2532> he was called <2564> (5681) the Friend <5384> of God <2316>. Jam 02:24 Ye see <3708> (5719) then <5106> how that <3754> by <1537> works <2041> a man <444> is justified <1344> (5743), and <2532> not <3756> by <1537> faith <4102> only <3440>. Jam 02:25 Likewise <3668> <1161> also <2532> was <1344> <0> not <3756> Rahab <4460> the harlot <4204> justified <1344> (5681) by <1537> works <2041>, when she had received <5264> (5666) the messengers <32>, and <2532> had sent them out <1544> (5631) another <2087> way <3598>? Jam 02:26 For <1063> as <5618> the body <4983> without <5565> the spirit <4151> is <2076> (5748) dead <3498>, so <3779> faith <4102> without <5565> works <2041> is <2076> (5748) dead <3498> also <2532>. Jam 03:01 ¶ My <3450> brethren <80>, be <1096> (5737) not <3361> many <4183> masters <1320>, knowing <1492> (5761) that <3754> we shall receive <2983> (5695) the greater <3187> condemnation <2917>. Jam 03:02 For <1063> in many things <4183> we offend <4417> (5719) all <537>. If any man <1536> offend <4417> (5719) not <3756> in <1722> word <3056>, the same <3778> is a perfect <5046> man <435>, and able <1415> also <2532> to bridle <5468> (5658) the whole <3650> body <4983>. Jam 03:03 Behold <2400> (5628), we put <906> (5719) bits <5469> in <1519> the horses <2462>‘ mouths <4750>, that <4314> they <846> may obey <3982> (5745) us <2254>; and <2532> we turn about <3329> (5719) their <846> whole <3650> body <4983>. Jam 03:04 Behold <2400> (5628) also <2532> the ships <4143>, which though they be <5607> (5752) so great <5082>, and <2532> are driven <1643> (5746) of <5259> fierce <4642> winds <417>, yet are they turned about <3329> (5743) with <5259> a very small <1646> helm <4079>, whithersoever <3699> <302> the governor <2116> (5723) listeth <3730> <1014> (5741). Jam 03:05 Even <2532> so <3779> the tongue <1100> is <2076> (5748) a little <3398> member <3196>, and <2532> boasteth great things <3166> (5719). Behold <2400> (5628), how great <2245> a matter <5208> a little <3641> fire <4442> kindleth <381> (5719)! Jam 03:06 And <2532> the tongue <1100> is a fire <4442>, a world <2889> of iniquity <93>: so <3779> is <2525> (5743) the tongue <1100> among <1722> our <2257> members <3196>, that it defileth <4695> (5723) the whole <3650> body <4983>, and <2532> setteth on fire <5394> (5723) the course <5164> of nature <1078>; and <2532> it is set on fire <5394> (5746) of <5259> hell <1067>. Jam 03:07 For <1063> every <3956> kind <5449> of beasts <2342>, and <5037> <2532> of birds <4071>, and <5037> of serpents <2062>, and <2532> of things in the sea <1724>, is tamed <1150> (5743), and <2532> hath been tamed <1150> (5769) of mankind <5449> <442>: Jam 03:08 But <1161> the tongue <1100> can <1410> (5736) no <3762> man <444> tame <1150> (5658); it is an unruly <183> evil <2556>, full <3324> of deadly <2287> poison <2447>. Jam 03:09 Therewith <1722> <846> bless we <2127> (5719) God <2316>, even <2532> the Father <3962>; and <2532> therewith <1722> <846> curse we <2672> (5736) men <444>, which <3588> are made <1096> (5756) after <2596> the similitude <3669> of God <2316>. Jam 03:10 Out of <1537> the same <846> mouth <4750> proceedeth <1831> (5736) blessing <2129> and <2532> cursing <2671>. My <3450> brethren <80>, these things <5023> ought <5534> (5724) not <3756> so <3779> to be <1096> (5738). Jam 03:11 Doth <3385> a fountain <4077> send forth <1032> (5719) at <1537> the same <846> place <3692> sweet <1099> water and <2532> bitter <4089>? Jam 03:12 Can <3361> <1410> (5736) the fig tree <4808>, my <3450> brethren <80>, bear <4160> (5658) olive berries <1636>? either <2228> a vine <288>, figs <4810>? so <3779> can no <3762> fountain <4077> both yield <4160> (5658) salt <252> water <5204> and <2532> fresh <1099>. Jam 03:13 ¶ Who <5101> is a wise man <4680> and <2532> endued with knowledge <1990> among <1722> you <5213>? let him shew <1166> (5657) out of <1537> a good <2570> conversation <391> his <846> works <2041> with <1722> meekness <4240> of wisdom <4678>. Jam 03:14 But <1161> if <1487> ye have <2192> (5719) bitter <4089> envying <2205> and <2532> strife <2052> in <1722> your <5216> hearts <2588>, glory <2620> (5737) not <3361>, and <2532> lie not <5574> (5732) against <2596> the truth <225>. Jam 03:15 This <3778> wisdom <4678> descendeth <2076> (5748) <2718> (5740) not <3756> from above <509>, but <235> is earthly <1919>, sensual <5591>, devilish <1141>. Jam 03:16 For <1063> where <3699> envying <2205> and <2532> strife <2052> is, there <1563> is confusion <181> and <2532> every <3956> evil <5337> work <4229>. Jam 03:17 But <1161> the wisdom <4678> that is from above <509> is <2076> (5748) first <4412> pure <3303> <53>, then <1899> peaceable <1516>, gentle <1933>, and easy to be intreated <2138>, full <3324> of mercy <1656> and <2532> good <18> fruits <2590>, without partiality <87>, and <2532> without hypocrisy <505>. Jam 03:18 And <1161> the fruit <2590> of righteousness <1343> is sown <4687> (5743) in <1722> peace <1515> of them that make <4160> (5723) peace <1515>. Jam 04:01 ¶ From whence <4159> come wars <4171> and <2532> fightings <3163> among <1722> you <5213>? come they not <3756> hence <1782>, even of <1537> your <5216> lusts <2237> that war <4754> (5734) in <1722> your <5216> members <3196>? Jam 04:02 Ye lust <1937> (5719), and <2532> have <2192> (5719) not <3756>: ye kill <5407> (5719), and <2532> desire to have <2206> (5719), and <2532> cannot <3756> <1410> (5736) obtain <2013> (5629): ye fight <3164> (5736) and <2532> war <4170> (5719), yet <1161> ye have <2192> (5719) not <3756>, because <1223> ye <5209> ask <154> (5733) not <3361>. Jam 04:03 Ye ask <154> (5719), and <2532> receive <2983> (5719) not <3756>, because <1360> ye ask <154> (5731) amiss <2560>, that <2443> ye may consume <1159> (5661) it upon <1722> your <5216> lusts <2237>. Jam 04:04 Ye adulterers <3432> and <2532> adulteresses <3428>, know ye <1492> (5758) not <3756> that <3754> the friendship <5373> of the world <2889> is <2076> (5748) enmity <2189> with God <2316>? whosoever <3739> <302> therefore <3767> will be <1511> (5750) <1014> (5680) a friend <5384> of the world <2889> is <2525> (5743) the enemy <2190> of God <2316>. Jam 04:05 <2228> Do ye think <1380> (5719) that <3754> the scripture <1124> saith <3004> (5719) in vain <2761>, The spirit <4151> that <3739> dwelleth <2730> (5656) in <1722> us <2254> lusteth <1971> (5719) to <4314> envy <5355>? Jam 04:06 But <1161> he giveth <1325> (5719) more <3187> grace <5485>. Wherefore <1352> he saith <3004> (5719), God <2316> resisteth <498> (5731) the proud <5244>, but <1161> giveth <1325> (5719) grace <5485> unto the humble <5011>. Jam 04:07 Submit yourselves <5293> (5649) therefore <3767> to God <2316>. Resist <436> (5628) the devil <1228>, and <2532> he will flee <5343> (5695) from <575> you <5216>. Jam 04:08 Draw nigh <1448> (5657) to God <2316>, and <2532> he will draw nigh <1448> (5692) to you <5213>. Cleanse <2511> (5657) your hands <5495>, ye sinners <268>; and <2532> purify <48> (5657) your hearts <2588>, ye double minded <1374>. Jam 04:09 Be afflicted <5003> (5657), and <2532> mourn <3996> (5657), and <2532> weep <2799> (5657): let your <5216> laughter <1071> be turned <3344> (5649) to <1519> mourning <3997>, and <2532> your joy <5479> to <1519> heaviness <2726>. Jam 04:010 Humble yourselves <5013> (5682) in the sight <1799> of the Lord <2962>, and <2532> he shall lift <5312> <0> you <5209> up <5312> (5692). Jam 04:011 ¶ Speak <2635> <0> not <3361> evil <2635> (5720) one of another <240>, brethren <80>. He that speaketh evil <2635> (5723) of his brother <80>, and <2532> judgeth <2919> (5723) his <846> brother <80>, speaketh evil <2635> (5719) of the law <3551>, and <2532> judgeth <2919> (5719) the law <3551>: but <1161> if <1487> thou judge <2919> (5719) the law <3551>, thou art <1488> (5748) not <3756> a doer <4163> of the law <3551>, but <235> a judge <2923>. Jam 04:012 There is <2076> (5748) one <1520> lawgiver <3550>, who <3588> is able <1410> (5740) to save <4982> (5658) and <2532> to destroy <622> (5658): who <5101> art <1488> (5748) thou <4771> that <3739> judgest <2919> (5719) another <2087>? Jam 04:013 Go to <33> (5720) now <3568>, ye that say <3004> (5723), To day <4594> or <2532> to morrow <839> we will go <4198> (5667) into <1519> such <3592> a city <4172>, and <2532> continue <4160> (5661) (5625) <4160> (5692) there <1563> a <1520> year <1763>, and <2532> buy and sell <1710> (5667) (5625) <1710> (5695), and <2532> get gain <2770> (5661) (5625) <2770> (5692): Jam 04:014 Whereas <3748> ye know <1987> (5736) not <3756> what <3588> shall be on the morrow <839>. For <1063> what <4169> is your <5216> life <2222>? It is <2076> (5748) even <1063> a vapour <822>, that <4314> appeareth for <5316> (5730) a little time <3641>, and <1161> then <1899> vanisheth away <853> (5746). Jam 04:015 For that <473> ye <5209> ought to say <3004> (5721), If <1437> the Lord <2962> will <2309> (5661), <2532> we shall live <2198> (5661) (5625) <2198> (5692), and <2532> do <4160> (5661) (5625) <4160> (5692) this <5124>, or <2228> that <1565>. Jam 04:016 But <1161> now <3568> ye rejoice <2744> (5736) in <1722> your <5216> boastings <212>: all <3956> such <5108> rejoicing <2746> is <2076> (5748) evil <4190>. Jam 04:017 Therefore <3767> to him that knoweth <1492> (5761) to do <4160> (5721) good <2570>, and <2532> doeth <4160> (5723) it not <3361>, to him <846> it is <2076> (5748) sin <266>. Jam 05:01 ¶ Go to <33> (5720) now <3568>, ye rich men <4145>, weep <2799> (5657) and howl <3649> (5723) for <1909> your <5216> miseries <5004> that shall come upon <1904> (5740) you. Jam 05:02 Your <5216> riches <4149> are corrupted <4595> (5754), and <2532> your <5216> garments <2440> are <1096> (5754) motheaten <4598>. Jam 05:03 Your <5216> gold <5557> and <2532> silver <696> is cankered <2728> (5769); and <2532> the rust <2447> of them <846> shall be <2071> (5704) a witness <3142> against <1519> you <5213>, and <2532> shall eat <5315> (5695) your <5216> flesh <4561> as it were <5613> fire <4442>. Ye have heaped treasure together <2343> (5656) for <1722> the last <2078> days <2250>. Jam 05:04 Behold <2400> (5628), the hire <3408> of the labourers <2040> who <3588> have reaped down <270> (5660) your <5216> fields <5561>, which <3588> is of <575> you <5216> kept back by fraud <650> (5772), crieth <2896> (5719): and <2532> the cries <995> of them which have reaped <2325> (5660) are entered <1525> (5754) into <1519> the ears <3775> of the Lord <2962> of sabaoth <4519>. Jam 05:05 Ye have lived in pleasure <5171> (5656) on <1909> the earth <1093>, and <2532> been wanton <4684> (5656); ye have nourished <5142> (5656) your <5216> hearts <2588>, as <5613> in <1722> a day <2250> of slaughter <4967>. Jam 05:06 Ye have condemned <2613> (5656) and killed <5407> (5656) the just <1342>; and he doth <498> <0> not <3756> resist <498> (5731) you <5213>. Jam 05:07 Be patient <3114> (5657) therefore <3767>, brethren <80>, unto <2193> the coming <3952> of the Lord <2962>. Behold <2400> (5628), the husbandman <1092> waiteth <1551> (5736) for the precious <5093> fruit <2590> of the earth <1093>, and hath long patience <3114> (5723) for <1909> it <846>, until <2193> <302> he receive <2983> (5632) the early <4406> and <2532> latter <3797> rain <5205>. Jam 05:08 Be <3114> <0> ye <5210> also <2532> patient <3114> (5657); stablish <4741> (5657) your <5216> hearts <2588>: for <3754> the coming <3952> of the Lord <2962> draweth nigh <1448> (5758). Jam 05:09 Grudge <4727> (5720) not <3361> one against another <2596> <240>, brethren <80>, lest <3363> ye be condemned <2632> (5686): behold <2400> (5628), the judge <2923> standeth <2476> (5707) before <4253> the door <2374>. Jam 05:10 Take <2983> (5628), my <3450> brethren <80>, the prophets <4396>, who <3739> have spoken <2980> (5656) in the name <3686> of the Lord <2962>, for an example <5262> of suffering affliction <2552>, and <2532> of patience <3115>. Jam 05:11 Behold <2400> (5628), we count them happy <3106> (5719) which endure <5278> (5723). Ye have heard <191> (5656) of the patience <5281> of Job <2492>, and <2532> have seen <1492> (5627) the end <5056> of the Lord <2962>; that <3754> the Lord <2962> is <2076> (5748) very pitiful <4184>, and <2532> of tender mercy <3629>. Jam 05:12 ¶ But <1161> above <4253> all things <3956>, my <3450> brethren <80>, swear <3660> (5720) not <3361>, neither <3383> by heaven <3772>, neither <3383> by the earth <1093>, neither <3383> by any <5100> other <243> oath <3727>: but <1161> let <2277> <0> your <5216> yea <3483> be <2277> (5749) yea <3483>; and <2532> your nay <3756>, nay <3756>; lest <3363> ye fall <4098> (5632) into <1519> condemnation <5272>. Jam 05:13 Is <2553> <0> any <5100> among <1722> you <5213> afflicted <2553> (5719)? let him pray <4336> (5737). Is <2114> <0> any <5100> merry <2114> (5719)? let him sing psalms <5567> (5720). Jam 05:14 Is <770> <0> any <5100> sick <770> (5719) among <1722> you <5213>? let him call <4341> (5663) for the elders <4245> of the church <1577>; and <2532> let them pray <4336> (5663) over <1909> him <846>, anointing <218> (5660) him <846> with oil <1637> in <1722> the name <3686> of the Lord <2962>: Jam 05:15 And <2532> the prayer <2171> of faith <4102> shall save <4982> (5692) the sick <2577> (5723), and <2532> the Lord <2962> shall raise <1453> <0> him <846> up <1453> (5692); and if <2579> he have <5600> (5753) committed <4160> (5761) sins <266>, they shall be forgiven <863> (5701) him <846>. Jam 05:16 Confess <1843> (5732) your faults <3900> one to another <240>, and <2532> pray <2172> (5737) one <240> <0> for <5228> another <240>, that <3704> ye may be healed <2390> (5686). The effectual fervent <1754> (5734) prayer <1162> of a righteous man <1342> availeth <2480> (5719) much <4183>. Jam 05:17 Elias <2243> was <2258> (5713) a man <444> subject to like passions as <3663> we are <2254>, and <2532> he prayed <4336> (5662) earnestly <4335> that it might <1026> <0> not <3361> rain <1026> (5658): and <2532> it rained <1026> (5656) not <3756> on <1909> the earth <1093> by the space of three <5140> years <1763> and <2532> six <1803> months <3376>. Jam 05:18 And <2532> he prayed <4336> (5662) again <3825>, and <2532> the heaven <3772> gave <1325> (5656) rain <5205>, and <2532> the earth <1093> brought forth <985> (5656) her <846> fruit <2590>. Jam 05:19 Brethren <80>, if <1437> any <5100> of <1722> you <5213> do err <4105> (5686) from <575> the truth <225>, and <2532> one <5100> convert <1994> (5661) him <846>; Jam 05:20 Let <1097> <0> him <846> know <1097> (5720), that <3754> he which converteth <1994> (5660) the sinner <268> from <1537> the error <4106> of his <846> way <3598> shall save <4982> (5692) a soul <5590> from <1537> death <2288>, and <2532> shall hide <2572> (5692) a multitude <4128> of sins <266>. ~~~~~~
