James 1:19-21

1912You knowG3609 this, 3my belovedG27 brothersG80 and sisters. Now everyoneG3956G444 must be quickG5036 to hearG191, 4slowG1021 to speakG2980, and 5slowG1021 to angerG3709;

20for a man’sG435 6angerG3709 does not bringG2038 aboutG2038 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316.

21ThereforeG1352, 7riddingG659 yourselves ofG659 allG3956 filthinessG4507 and all 8that remainsG4050 of wickednessG2549, in 9humilityG4240 receiveG1209 10the wordG3056 implantedG1721, which is ableG1410 to saveG4982 your soulsG5590.
