야고보서 1장 [RSV]
-
1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion: Greeting.
-
2 Count it all joy, my brethren, when you meet various trials,
-
3 for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.
-
4 And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
-
5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives to all men generously and without reproaching, and it will be given him.
-
6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.
-
7 For that person must not suppose that a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways, will receive anything from the Lord.
-
8 (included in verse 7)
-
9 Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation,
-
10 and the rich in his humiliation, because like the flower of the grass he will pass away.
-
11 For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.
-
12 Blessed is the man who endures trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life which God has promised to those who love him.
-
13 Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted with evil and he himself tempts no one;
-
14 but each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire.
-
15 Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin; and sin when it is full-grown brings forth death.
-
16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren.
-
17 Every good endowment and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.
-
18 Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.
-
19 Know this, my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger,
-
20 for the anger of man does not work the righteousness of God.
-
21 Therefore put away all filthiness and rank growth of wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
-
22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
-
23 For if any one is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who observes his natural face in a mirror;
-
24 for he observes himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like.
-
25 But he who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer that forgets but a doer that acts, he shall be blessed in his doing.
-
26 If any one thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this mans religion is vain.
-
27 Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.
