James 1:19-27
English Standard Version
Hearing and Doing the Word
19 (A)Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person (B)be quick to hear, (C)slow to speak, (D)slow to anger; 20 for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God. 21 Therefore (E)put away all filthiness and rampant wickedness and receive with (F)meekness the implanted word, (G)which is able to save your souls.
22 But be (H)doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. 24 For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. 25 But the one who looks into the perfect law, (I)the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, (J)he will be blessed in his doing.
26 If anyone thinks he is religious (K)and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person's (L)religion is worthless. 27 Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: (M)to visit (N)orphans and widows in their affliction, and (O)to keep oneself (P)unstained from the world.
