James 1:18-21

18By His will, He brought us forth by the word of truth, so that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all He created.

19Know this, my dear brothers and sisters: let every person be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger—

20for human anger doesn’t produce the righteousness of God.

21So put away all moral filth and excess of evil and receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
