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 generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.
6.
But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.

He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
