1:1 | James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting. |
1:2 | My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; |
1:3 | Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. |
1:4 | But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. |
1:5 | If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. |
1:6 | But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. |
1:7 | For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. |
1:8 | A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. |
1:9 | Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted: |
1:10 | But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away. |
1:11 | For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways. |
1:12 | Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. |
1:13 | Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: |
1:14 | But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. |
1:15 | Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. |
1:16 | Do not err, my beloved brethren. |
1:17 | Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. |
1:18 | Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures. |
1:19 | Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: |
1:20 | For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. |
1:21 | Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. |
1:22 | But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. |
1:22 | 只是你們要行道、不要單單聽道、自己欺哄自己. |
1:22 | 只是你们要行道,不要单单听道,自己欺哄自己。 |
mat:7:21 | Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. |
mat:7:24 | Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: |
mat:7:25 | And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. |
mat:7:26 | And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: |
mat:7:27 | And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. |
luk:8:21 | And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it. |
jhn:13:17 | If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them. |
jas:2:14 | What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? |
jas:2:15 | If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, |
jas:2:16 | And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? |
jas:2:17 | Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. |
jas:2:18 | Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. |
jas:2:19 | Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. |
jas:2:20 | But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? |
luk:11:28 | But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it. |
rom:2:13 | (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. |
COBL | |
1:23 | For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: |
1:24 | For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. |
1:25 | But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. |
1:26 | If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain. |
1:27 | Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. |
