The Generall
Epistle of Iames
Iames
a
seruant
of
God,
and
of
the
Lord
Iesus
Christ,
to
the
twelue
Tribes
which
are
scattered
abroad,
greeting.
2
My
brethren,
count
it
all
ioy
when
ye
fall
into
diuers
temptations,
3
Knowing
this,
that
the
trying
of
your
faith
worketh
patience,
4
But
let
patience
haue
her
perfect
worke,
that
ye
may
be
perfect,
and
entier,
wanting
nothing.
5
If
any
of
you
lacke
wisedome,
let
him
aske
of
God,
that
giueth
to
all
men
liberally,
and
vpbraideth
not:
and
it
shalbe
giuen
him.
6
But
let
him
aske
in
faith,
nothing
wauering:
for
he
that
wauereth
is
like
a
waue
of
the
sea,
driuen
with
the
wind,
and
tossed.
7
For
let
not
that
man
thinke
that
he
shall
receiue
any
thing
of
the
Lord.
8
A
double
minded
man
is
vnstable
in
all
his
wayes.
9
Let
the
brother
of
low
degree,
reioyce
in
that
he
is
exalted:
10
But
the
rich,
in
that
hee
is
made
low:
because
as
the
floure
of
the
grasse
he
shall
passe
away.
11
For
the
Sunne
is
no
sooner
risen
with
a
burning
heate,
but
it
withereth
the
grasse;
and
the
flowre
thereof
falleth,
and
the
grace
of
the
fashion
of
it
perisheth:
so
also
shall
the
rich
man
fade
away
in
his
wayes.
12
Blessed
is
the
man
that
endureth
temptation:
for
when
hee
is
tried,
hee
shall
receiue
the
crowne
of
life,
which
the
Lord
hath
promised
to
them
that
loue
him.
13
Let
no
man
say
when
he
is
tempted,
I
am
tempted
of
God:
for
God
cannot
be
tempted
with
euill,
neither
tempteth
he
any
man.
14
But
euery
man
is
tempted,
when
hee
is
drawen
away
of
his
owne
lust,
and
entised.
15
Then
when
lust
hath
conceiued,
it
bringeth
forth
sinne:
and
sinne,
when
it
is
finished,
bringeth
forth
death.
16
Doe
not
erre,
my
beloued
brethren.
17
Euery
good
gift,
and
euery
perfect
gift
is
from
aboue,
&
commeth
downe
from
the
Father
of
lights,
with
whom
is
no
variablenesse,
neither
shadow
of
turning.
18
Of
his
owne
will
begate
hee
vs,
with
the
word
of
Trueth,
that
wee
should
bee
a
kinde
of
first
fruites
of
his
creatures.
19
Wherefore
my
beloued
brethren,
let
euery
man
bee
swift
to
heare,
slow
to
speake,
slow
to
wrath.
20
For
the
wrath
of
man
worketh
not
the
righteousnesse
of
God.
21
Wherefore
lay
apart
all
filthinesse,
and
superfluitie
of
naughtinesse,
&
receiue
with
meeknesse
the
engrafted
word,
which
is
able
to
saue
your
soules.
22
But
be
ye
doers
of
the
word,
and
not
hearers
onely,
receiuing
your
owne
selues.
23
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:
24
For
hee
beholdeth
himselfe,
and
goeth
his
way,
and
straightway
forgetteth
what
maner
of
man
he
was.
25
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.
26
If
any
man
among
you
seeme
to
be
religious,
&
bridleth
not
his
tongue,
but
deceiueth
his
owne
heart,
this
mans
religion
is
vaine.
27
Pure
religion
and
vndefiled
before
God
and
the
Father,
is
this,
to
visit
the
fatherlesse
and
widowes
in
their
affliction,
and
to
keepe
himselfe
vnspotted
from
the
world.
