James 1:12-15
English Standard Version
12 (A)Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive (B)the crown of life, (C)which God has promised to those who love him. 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one. 14 But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. 15 Then desire (D)when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and (E)sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.

1 Corinthians 11:27-30
English Standard Version
27 (A)Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord (B)in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning (C)the body and blood of the Lord. 28 (D)Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself. 30 That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some (E)have died.[a]
