New Testament

James 1:4-12 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

4. And let endurance have a perfect work, so that you be perfect and complete, lacking in naught.

5. If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of Elohim, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it shall be given to him.

6. But he should ask in belief, not doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.

7. For that man should not think that he shall receive whatever from the Master –

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

9. And let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation,

10. but the rich in his humiliation, because as a flower of the field he shall pass away.

11. For the sun rose with burning heat, and withered the grass, and its flower fell, and its pretty appearance perished. So also the rich man shall fade away in his ways.

12. Blessed is the man who does endure trial, for when he has been proved, he shall receive the crown of life which the Master has promised to those who love Him.
