James 1:13-17
13NoG3367 oneG3367 is to sayG3004 when he is temptedG3985, “1I am being temptedG3985 2by GodG2316”; for GodG2316 cannotG551 beG551 temptedG551 3by evilG2556, and He HimselfG846 does not temptG3985 anyoneG3762.
14But eachG1538 oneG1538 is temptedG3985 when he is carriedG1828 awayG1828 and enticedG1185 by his ownG2398 lustG1939.
15ThenG1534 4when lustG1939 has conceivedG4815, it givesG5088 birthG5088 to sinG266; and 5sinG266, when it has runG658 itsG658 courseG658, bringsG616 forthG616 deathG2288.
166Do not be 7deceivedG4105, 8my belovedG27 brothersG80 and sisters.
17EveryG3956 goodG18 thingG1394 givenG1394 and everyG3956 perfectG5046 giftG1434 is 9from aboveG509, comingG2597 downG2597 from 10the FatherG3962 of lightsG5457, 11with whomG3739 thereG1762 isG1762 noG3756 variationG3883 orG2228 12shiftingG5157 shadowG644.
