ISA-11:9 ...for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD,

as the waters cover the sea.

JAS-1:1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ,

to the twelve

tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

JAS-1:2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers

temptations;

JAS-1:3 Knowing [this], that the trying of your faith worketh

patience.

JAS-1:4 But let patience have [her] perfect work, that ye may

be perfect and

entire, wanting nothing.

JAS-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.

JAS-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.

JAS-1:7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any

thing of the

Lord.

JAS-1:8 A double minded man [is] unstable in all his ways.

JAS-1:9 Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is

exalted:

JAS-1:10 But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the

flower of the

grass he shall pass away.

JAS-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.

JAS-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.

JAS-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:

JAS-1:14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his

own lust, and

enticed.

JAS-1:15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin:

and sin, when

it is finished, bringeth forth death.

JAS-1:16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.

JAS-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.

JAS-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.

JAS-1:19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift

to hear, slow

to speak, slow to wrath:

JAS-1:20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of

God.

JAS-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.

JAS-1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only,

deceiving your

own selves.

JAS-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:

JAS-1:24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and

straightway

forgetteth what manner of man he was.

JAS-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.

JAS-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.

JAS-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.

JAS-2:1 My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus

Christ, [the Lord]

of glory, with respect of persons.

JAS-2:2 For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold

ring, in

goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile

raiment;

JAS-2:3 And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay

clothing, and say

unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor,

Stand thou

there, or sit here under my footstool:

JAS-2:4 Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become

judges of evil

thoughts?

JAS-2:5 Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the

poor of this

world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath

promised to them

that love him?

JAS-2:6 But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress

you, and draw

you before the judgment seats?

JAS-2:7 Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye

are called?

JAS-2:8 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture,

Thou shalt

love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:

JAS-2:9 But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and

are convinced

of the law as transgressors.

JAS-2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend

in one

[point], he is guilty of all.

JAS-2:11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also,

Do not kill.

Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art

become a

transgressor of the law.

JAS-2:12 So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged

by the law of

liberty.

JAS-2:13 For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath

shewed no mercy;

and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.

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?

JAS-2:21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he

had offered

Isaac his son upon the altar?

JAS-2:22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by

works was faith

made perfect?

JAS-2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham

believed God,

and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called

the Friend of

God.

JAS-2:24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and

not by faith

only.

JAS-2:25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by

works, when she

had received the messengers, and had sent [them] out another way?

JAS-2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith

without works

is dead also.

JAS-3:1 My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall

receive the

greater condemnation.

JAS-3:2 For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not

in word, the

same [is] a perfect man, [and] able also to bridle the whole

body.

JAS-3:3 Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they

may obey us; and

we turn about their whole body.

JAS-3:4 Behold also the ships, which though [they be] so great,

and [are]

driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very

small helm,

whithersoever the governor listeth.

JAS-3:5 Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth

great things.

Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!

JAS-3:6 And the tongue [is] a fire, a world of iniquity: so is

the tongue

among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth

on fire the

course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.

JAS-3:7 For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents,

and of

things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:

JAS-3:8 But the tongue can no man tame; [it is] an unruly evil,

full of

deadly poison.

JAS-3:9 Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith

curse we men,

which are made after the similitude of God.

JAS-3:10 Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing.

My brethren,

these things ought not so to be.

JAS-3:11 Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet

[water] and

bitter?

JAS-3:12 Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries?

either a vine,

figs? so [can] no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.

JAS-3:13 Who [is] a wise man and endued with knowledge among

you? let him

shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of

wisdom.

JAS-3:14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your

hearts, glory not,

and lie not against the truth.

JAS-3:15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but [is]

earthly, sensual,

devilish.

JAS-3:16 For where envying and strife [is], there [is]

confusion and every

evil work.

JAS-3:17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then

peaceable,

gentle, [and] easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good

fruits, without

partiality, and without hypocrisy.

JAS-3:18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of

them that make

peace.

JAS-4:1 From whence [come] wars and fightings among you? [come

they] not

hence, [even] of your lusts that war in your members?

JAS-4:2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and

cannot

obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.

JAS-4:3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye

may consume

[it] upon your lusts.

JAS-4:4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the

friendship of

the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a

friend of the

world is the enemy of God.

JAS-4:5 Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The

spirit that

dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?

JAS-4:6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God

resisteth the

proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

JAS-4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil,

and he will

flee from you.

JAS-4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse

[your] hands,

[ye] sinners; and purify [your] hearts, [ye] double minded.

JAS-4:9 Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be

turned to

mourning, and [your] joy to heaviness.

JAS-4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he

shall lift you

up.

JAS-4:11 Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that

speaketh evil of

[his] brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law,

and judgeth

the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the

law, but a

judge.

JAS-4:12 There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to

destroy: who art

thou that judgest another?

JAS-4:13 Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go

into such a

city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:

JAS-4:14 Whereas ye know not what [shall be] on the morrow. For

what [is]

your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time,

and then

vanisheth away.

JAS-4:15 For that ye [ought] to say, If the Lord will, we shall

live, and do

this, or that.

JAS-4:16 But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such

rejoicing is evil.

JAS-4:17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth

[it] not, to him

it is sin.

JAS-5:1 Go to now, [ye] rich men, weep and howl for your

miseries that shall

come upon [you].

JAS-5:2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are

motheaten.

JAS-5:3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them

shall be a

witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire.

Ye have heaped

treasure together for the last days.

JAS-5:4 Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down

your fields,

which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of

them which have

reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.

JAS-5:5 Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton;

ye have

nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

JAS-5:6 Ye have condemned [and] killed the just; [and] he doth

not resist

you.

JAS-5:7 Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the

Lord. Behold,

the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and

hath long

patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.

JAS-5:8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the

coming of the Lord

draweth nigh.

JAS-5:9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be

condemned:

behold, the judge standeth before the door.

JAS-5:10 Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in

the name of the

Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.

JAS-5:11 Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have

heard of the

patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the

Lord is very

pitiful, and of tender mercy.

JAS-5:12 But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither

by heaven,

neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your

yea be yea; and

[your] nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation.

JAS-5:13 Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any

merry? let him sing

psalms.

JAS-5:14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of

the church;

and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name

of the Lord:

JAS-5:15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the

Lord shall

raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be

forgiven him.

JAS-5:16 Confess [your] faults one to another, and pray one for

another, that

ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous

man availeth

much.

JAS-5:17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are,

and he prayed

earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth

by the space

of three years and six months.

JAS-5:18 And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the

earth brought

forth her fruit.

JAS-5:19 Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one

convert him;

JAS-5:20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from

the error of

his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude

of sins.
