James 3:11–18

⁴³For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

⁴⁴For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.

^43*For a good tree bringeth not foorth corrupt fruit: neither doeth a corrupt tree bring foorth good fruit.

⁴⁴For euery tree is knowen by his owne fruit: for of thornes men doe not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.

¹⁸A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

¹⁹Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

²⁰Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

¹⁸A good tree cannot bring forth euil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

^19*Euery tree that bringeth not forth good fruit, is hewen downe, and cast into the fire.

²⁰Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

¹⁶For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.

¹⁷And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;

¹⁸Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.

¹⁶For if the first fruite bee holy, the lumpe is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.
