James 1:19–27
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
Wherefore my beloued brethren, let euery man bee swift to heare, slow to speake, slow to wrath.
For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousnesse of God.
Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
Wherefore lay apart all filthinesse, and superfluitie of naughtinesse, & receiue with meeknesse the engrafted word, which is able to saue your soules.
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers onely, deceiuing your owne selues.
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:
For if any be a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like vnto a man beholding his naturall face in a glasse:
For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
For hee beholdeth himselfe, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what maner of man he was.
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.
But who so looketh into the perfect Law of libertie, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetfull hearer, but a doer of the worke, this man shall be blessed in his ‖deed.
