Chapter 1
2 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds,
5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.
9 Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation, 10 and the rich in his humiliation, because like a flower of the grass he will pass away.
12 Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under 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 being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one.
16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers.
17 Every good gift 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.
19 Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; 20 for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
26 If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless.
27 Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.
Chapter 2
2 My brothers, show no partiality as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory.
5 Listen, my beloved brothers, has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom, which he has promised to those who love him?
8 If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing well.
9 But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
10 For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it.
13 For judgment is without mercy to one who has shown no mercy.
Mercy triumphs over judgment.
Faith Without Works Is Dead
14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works?
Can that faith save him?
17 So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
23 and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a friend of God.
Chapter 3
3 Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness.
5 So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great things.
How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire! 6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness.
The tongue is set among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, and set on fire by hell.
8 but no human being can tame the tongue.
It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
9 With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. 10 From the same mouth come blessing and cursing.
My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
Wisdom from Above
13 Who is wise and understanding among you?
By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom
16 For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice.
Chapter 4
1 What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you?
Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? 2 You desire and do not have, so you murder.
You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel.
You do not have, because you do not ask.
3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions.
4 Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
6 But he gives more grace.
Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”
7 Submit yourselves therefore to God.
Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you.
10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.
13 Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”— 14 yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring.
What is your life?
For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.
15 Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.”
Chapter 5
Rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you.
5 You have lived on the earth in luxury and in self-indulgence.
You have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter.
7 Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord.
See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains.
10 As an example of suffering and patience, brothers, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
12 But above all, my brothers, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or by any other oath, but let your “yes” be yes and your “no” be no, so that you may not fall under condemnation.
13 Is anyone among you suffering?
Let him pray.
Is anyone cheerful?
Let him sing praise.
14 Is anyone among you sick?
Let him call for the elders of the church . . .
16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed.
19 My brothers, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and someone brings him back, 20 let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from his wandering will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.
