+Book 59 James
+001:001 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ,
+ to the twelve tribes which are in the Dispersion: Greetings.
+001:002 Count it all joy, my brothers{The word for "brothers"
+ here and where context allows may also be correctly translated
+ "brothers and sisters" or "siblings."}, when you fall
+ into various temptations,
+001:003 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
+001:004 Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect
+ and complete, lacking in nothing.
+001:005 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God,
+ who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it
+ will be given to him.
+001:006 But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts
+ is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.
+001:007 For let that man not think that he will receive anything
+ from the Lord.
+001:008 He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
+001:009 But let the brother in humble circumstances glory in
+ his high position;
+001:010 and the rich, in that he is made humble, because like the flower
+ in the grass, he will pass away.
+001:011 For the sun arises with the scorching wind, and withers
+ the grass, and the flower in it falls, and the beauty of its
+ appearance perishes. So also will the rich man fade away
+ in his pursuits.
+001:012 Blessed is the man who endures temptation, for when he has
+ been approved, he will receive the crown of life, which the Lord
+ promised to those who love him.
+001:013 Let no man say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God,"
+ for God can't be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.
+001:014 But each one is tempted, when he is drawn away by his
+ own lust, and enticed.
+001:015 Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin; and the sin,
+ when it is full grown, brings forth death.
+001:016 Don't be deceived, my beloved brothers.
+001:017 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down
+ from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation,
+ nor turning shadow.
+001:018 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.
+001:019 So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear,
+ slow to speak, and slow to anger;
+001:020 for the anger of man doesn't produce the righteousness of God.
+001:021 Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing
+ of wickedness, receive with humility the implanted word,
+ which is able to save your souls{or, preserve your life.}.
+001:022 But be doers of the word, and not only hearers, deluding
+ your own selves.
+001:023 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer,
+ he is like a man looking at his natural face in a mirror;
+001:024 for he sees himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets
+ what kind of man he was.
+001:025 But he who looks into the perfect law of freedom, and continues,
+ not being a hearer who forgets, but a doer of the work,
+ this man will be blessed in what he does.
+001:026 If anyone among you thinks himself to be religious while
+ he doesn't bridle his tongue, but deceives his heart,
+ this man's religion is worthless.
+001:027 Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this:
+ to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction,
+ and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
+002:001 My brothers, don't hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ
+ of glory with partiality.
+002:002 For if a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into
+ your synagogue{or, meeting}, and a poor man in filthy clothing
+ also comes in;
+002:003 and you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing,
+ and say, "Sit here in a good place;" and you tell the poor man,
+ "Stand there," or "Sit by my footstool;"
+002:004 haven't you shown partiality among yourselves, and become
+ judges with evil thoughts?
+002:005 Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn't God choose those who are poor
+ in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom
+ which he promised to those who love him?
+002:006 But you have dishonored the poor man. Don't the rich oppress you,
+ and personally drag you before the courts?
+002:007 Don't they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?
+002:008 However, if you fulfill the royal law, according to
+ the Scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself,"{Leviticus
+ 19:18} you do well.
+002:009 But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted
+ by the law as transgressors.
+002:010 For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point,
+ he has become guilty of all.
+002:011 For he who said, "Do not commit adultery,"{Exodus 20:14;
+ Deuteronomy 5:18} also said, "Do not commit murder."{Exodus 10:13;
+ Deuteronomy 5:17} Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder,
+ you have become a transgressor of the law.
+002:012 So speak, and so do, as men who are to be judged by a
+ law of freedom.
+002:013 For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy.
+ Mercy triumphs over judgment.
+002:014 What good is it, my brothers, if a man says he has faith,
+ but has no works? Can faith save him?
+002:015 And if a brother or sister is naked and in lack of daily food,
+002:016 and one of you tells them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled;"
+ and yet you didn't give them the things the body needs,
+ what good is it?
+002:017 Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.
+002:018 Yes, a man will say, "You have faith, and I have works."
+ Show me your faith without works, and I by my works will show
+ you my faith.
+002:019 You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons
+ also believe, and shudder.
+002:020 But do you want to know, vain man, that faith apart from
+ works is dead?
+002:021 Wasn't Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered
+ up Isaac his son on the altar?
+002:022 You see that faith worked with his works, and by works
+ faith was perfected;
+002:023 and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God,
+ and it was accounted to him as righteousness;"{Genesis 15:16}
+ and he was called the friend of God.
+002:024 You see then that by works, a man is justified, and not
+ only by faith.
+002:025 In like manner wasn't Rahab the prostitute also justified
+ by works, in that she received the messengers, and sent them
+ out another way?
+002:026 For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith
+ apart from works is dead.
+003:001 Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we
+ will receive heavier judgment.
+003:002 For in many things we all stumble. If anyone doesn't
+ stumble in word, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle
+ the whole body also.
+003:003 Indeed, we put bits into the horses' mouths so that they may
+ obey us, and we guide their whole body.
+003:004 Behold, the ships also, though they are so big and are driven
+ by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder,
+ wherever the pilot desires.
+003:005 So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things.
+ See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!
+003:006 And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among
+ our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body,
+ and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire
+ by Gehenna.{or, Hell}
+003:007 For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and thing
+ in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind.
+003:008 But nobody can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil,
+ full of deadly poison.
+003:009 With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men,
+ who are made in the image of God.
+003:010 Out of the same mouth comes forth blessing and cursing.
+ My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
+003:011 Does a spring send out from the same opening fresh and bitter water?
+003:012 Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs?
+ Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh water.
+003:013 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his
+ good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.
+003:014 But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart,
+ don't boast and don't lie against the truth.
+003:015 This wisdom is not that which comes down from above,
+ but is earthly, sensual, and demonic.
+003:016 For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion
+ and every evil deed.
+003:017 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful,
+ gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits,
+ without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
+003:018 Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those
+ who make peace.
+004:001 Where do wars and fightings among you come from?
+ Don't they come from your pleasures that war in your members?
+004:002 You lust, and don't have. You kill, covet, and can't obtain.
+ You fight and make war. You don't have, because you don't ask.
+004:003 You ask, and don't receive, because you ask with wrong motives,
+ so that you may spend it for your pleasures.
+004:004 You adulterers and adulteresses, don't you know that friendship
+ with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants
+ to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
+004:005 Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, "The Spirit
+ who lives in us yearns jealously"?
+004:006 But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, "God resists
+ the proud, but gives grace to the humble."{Proverbs 3:34}
+004:007 Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will
+ flee from you.
+004:008 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands,
+ you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
+004:009 Lament, mourn, and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning,
+ and your joy to gloom.
+004:010 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he will exalt you.
+004:011 Don't speak against one another, brothers. He who speaks
+ against a brother and judges his brother, speaks against
+ the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law,
+ you are not a doer of the law, but a judge.
+004:012 Only one is the lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy.
+ But who are you to judge another?
+004:013 Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow let's go into this city,
+ and spend a year there, trade, and make a profit."
+004:014 Whereas you don't know what your life will be like tomorrow.
+ For what is your life? For you are a vapor, that appears
+ for a little time, and then vanishes away.
+004:015 For you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will both live,
+ and do this or that."
+004:016 But now you glory in your boasting. All such boasting is evil.
+004:017 To him therefore who knows to do good, and doesn't do it,
+ to him it is sin.
+005:001 Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are
+ coming on you.
+005:002 Your riches are corrupted and your garments are moth-eaten.
+005:003 Your gold and your silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be
+ for a testimony against you, and will eat your flesh like fire.
+ You have laid up your treasure in the last days.
+005:004 Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields,
+ which you have kept back by fraud, cry out, and the cries
+ of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord
+ of Armies{Greek: Sabaoth (for Hebrew: Tze'va'ot)}.
+005:005 You have lived delicately on the earth, and taken your pleasure.
+ You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter.
+005:006 You have condemned, you have murdered the righteous one.
+ He doesn't resist you.
+005:007 Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord.
+ Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth,
+ being patient over it, until it receives the early and late rain.
+005:008 You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming
+ of the Lord is at hand.
+005:009 Don't grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you
+ won't be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.
+005:010 Take, brothers, for an example of suffering and of patience,
+ the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
+005:011 Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard
+ of the patience of Job, and have seen the Lord in the outcome,
+ and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
+005:012 But above all things, my brothers, don't swear, neither by heaven,
+ nor by the earth, nor by any other oath; but let your "yes"
+ be "yes," and your "no," "no;" so that you don't fall into
+ hypocrisy.{TR reads "under judgment" instead of "into hypocrisy"}
+005:013 Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful?
+ Let him sing praises.
+005:014 Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly,
+ and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name
+ of the Lord,
+005:015 and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick,
+ and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins,
+ he will be forgiven.
+005:016 Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another,
+ that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous
+ person is powerfully effective.
+005:017 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly
+ that it might not rain, and it didn't rain on the earth
+ for three years and six months.
+005:018 He prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth brought
+ forth its fruit.
+005:019 Brothers, if any among you wanders from the truth, and someone
+ turns him back,
+005:020 let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way
+ will save a soul from death, and will cover a multitude of sins.

+Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we usually do not
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
+of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
+Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections,
+even years after the official publication date.
+
+Please note neither this listing nor its contents are final til
+midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement.
+The official release date of all Project Gutenberg eBooks is at
+Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month. A
+preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment
+and editing by those who wish to do so.
+
+Most people start at our Web sites at:

+
+These Web sites include award-winning information about Project
+Gutenberg, including how to donate, how to help produce our new
+eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter (free!).
+
+
+Those of you who want to download any eBook before announcement
+can get to them as follows, and just download by date. This is
+also a good way to get them instantly upon announcement, as the

+
+We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work. The
+time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours
+to get any eBook selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright
+searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc. Our
+projected audience is one hundred million readers. If the value
+per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2
+million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text
+files per month: 1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+
+We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002
+If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
+will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.
+
+The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks!
+This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers,
+which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.
