James 1:16-20
New King James Version
16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren. 17 (A)Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, (B)with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. 18 (C)Of His own will He brought us forth by the (D)word of truth, (E)that we might be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures.
Qualities Needed in Trials
19 [a]So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, (F)slow to speak, (G)slow to wrath; 20 for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
