2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;

13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for

3 Knowing this, that the trying of God cannot be tempted with evil, your faith worketh patience.

4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

neither tempteth he any man:

14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him 15 Then when lust hath conceived, ask of God, that giveth to all men li-it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it berally, and upbraideth not; and it is finished, bringeth forth death. shall be given him.

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.

7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. 8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.

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.

18 Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be

II 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.

19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be ye doers of the word,
