| 1:1 | James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting. |
| 1:2 | My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; |
| 1:3 | Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. |
| 1:4 | But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. |
| 1:5 | If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. |
| 1:6 | But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. |
| 1:7 | For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. |
| 1:8 | A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. |
| 1:9 | Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted: |
| 1:10 | But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away. |
| 1:11 | For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways. |
| 1:12 | Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. |
| 1:13 | Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: |
| 1:14 | But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. |
| 1:15 | Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. |
| 1:16 | Do not err, my beloved brethren. |
| 1:17 | Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. |
| 1:18 | Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures. |
| 1:19 | Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: |
| 1:20 | For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. |
| 1:21 | Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. |
| 1:22 | But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. |
| 1:23 | For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: |
| 1:24 | For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. |
| 1:25 | But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. |
| 1:26 | If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain. |
| 1:27 | Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. |

| 1:1 | ιακωβος θεου και κυριου ιησου χριστου δουλος ταις δωδεκα φυλαις ταις εν τη διασπορα χαιρειν |
| 1:2 | πασαν χαραν ηγησασθε αδελφοι μου οταν πειρασμοις περιπεσητε ποικιλοις |
| 1:3 | γινωσκοντες οτι το δοκιμιον υμων της πιστεως κατεργαζεται υπομονην |
| 1:4 | η δε υπομονη εργον τελειον εχετω ινα ητε τελειοι και ολοκληροι εν μηδενι λειπομενοι |
| 1:5 | ει δε τις υμων λειπεται σοφιας αιτειτω παρα του διδοντος θεου πασιν απλως και μη ονειδιζοντος και δοθησεται αυτω |
| 1:6 | αιτειτω δε εν πιστει μηδεν διακρινομενος ο γαρ διακρινομενος εοικεν κλυδωνι θαλασσης ανεμιζομενω και ριπιζομενω |
| 1:7 | μη γαρ οιεσθω ο ανθρωπος εκεινος οτι ληψεται τι παρα του κυριου |
| 1:8 | ανηρ διψυχος ακαταστατος εν πασαις ταις οδοις αυτου |
| 1:9 | καυχασθω δε ο αδελφος ο ταπεινος εν τω υψει αυτου |
| 1:10 | ο δε πλουσιος εν τη ταπεινωσει αυτου οτι ως ανθος χορτου παρελευσεται |
| 1:11 | ανετειλεν γαρ ο ηλιος συν τω καυσωνι και εξηρανεν τον χορτον και το ανθος αυτου εξεπεσεν και η ευπρεπεια του προσωπου αυτου απωλετο ουτως και ο πλουσιος εν ταις πορειαις αυτου μαρανθησεται |
| 1:12 | μακαριος ανηρ ος υπομενει πειρασμον οτι δοκιμος γενομενος ληψεται τον στεφανον της ζωης ον επηγγειλατο ο κυριος τοις αγαπωσιν αυτον |
| 1:13 | μηδεις πειραζομενος λεγετω οτι απο του θεου πειραζομαι ο γαρ θεος απειραστος εστιν κακων πειραζει δε αυτος ουδενα |
| 1:14 | εκαστος δε πειραζεται υπο της ιδιας επιθυμιας εξελκομενος και δελεαζομενος |
| 1:15 | ειτα η επιθυμια συλλαβουσα τικτει αμαρτιαν η δε αμαρτια αποτελεσθεισα αποκυει θανατον |
| 1:16 | μη πλανασθε αδελφοι μου αγαπητοι |
| 1:17 | πασα δοσις αγαθη και παν δωρημα τελειον ανωθεν εστιν καταβαινον απο του πατρος των φωτων παρ ω ουκ ενι παραλλαγη η τροπης αποσκιασμα |
| 1:18 | βουληθεις απεκυησεν ημας λογω αληθειας εις το ειναι ημας απαρχην τινα των αυτου κτισματων |
| 1:19 | ωστε αδελφοι μου αγαπητοι εστω πας ανθρωπος ταχυς εις το ακουσαι βραδυς εις το λαλησαι βραδυς εις οργην |
| 1:20 | οργη γαρ ανδρος δικαιοσυνην θεου ου κατεργαζεται |
| 1:21 | διο αποθεμενοι πασαν ρυπαριαν και περισσειαν κακιας εν πραυτητι δεξασθε τον εμφυτον λογον τον δυναμενον σωσαι τας ψυχας υμων |
| 1:22 | γινεσθε δε ποιηται λογου και μη μονον ακροαται παραλογιζομενοι εαυτους |
| 1:23 | οτι ει τις ακροατης λογου εστιν και ου ποιητης ουτος εοικεν ανδρι κατανοουντι το προσωπον της γενεσεως αυτου εν εσοπτρω |
| 1:24 | κατενοησεν γαρ εαυτον και απεληλυθεν και ευθεως επελαθετο οποιος ην |
| 1:25 | ο δε παρακυψας εις νομον τελειον τον της ελευθεριας και παραμεινας ουτος ουκ ακροατης επιλησμονης γενομενος αλλα ποιητης εργου ουτος μακαριος εν τη ποιησει αυτου εσται |
| 1:26 | ει τις δοκει θρησκος ειναι εν υμιν μη χαλιναγωγων γλωσσαν αυτου αλλ απατων καρδιαν αυτου τουτου ματαιος η θρησκεια |
| 1:27 | θρησκεια καθαρα και αμιαντος παρα τω θεω και πατρι αυτη εστιν επισκεπτεσθαι ορφανους και χηρας εν τη θλιψει αυτων ασπιλον εαυτον τηρειν απο του κοσμου |
