James 1:16-20

16Be not deceivedG4105, my belovedG27 brethren. 17Every goodG18 giftG1434 and every perfectG5046 giftG1434 isG1510 from above, comingG2597 downG2597 from the FatherG3962 of lightsG5457, with whom can beG1510 no variation, neither shadow that isG1510 cast by turning. 18Of his own will he brought us forthG616 by the wordG3056 of truthG225, that we should beG1510 a kind of firstfruits of his creaturesG2938.

19Ye knowthis, my belovedG27 brethren. But let every manG444 beG1510 swift to hearG191, slowG1021 to speakG2980, slowG1021 to wrathG3709: 20for the wrathG3709 of manG435 worketh not the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316.
