James 1:21-24

New American Standard Bible

²¹ Therefore, ^(A)ridding yourselves of all filthiness and all ^[a]that remains of wickedness, in ^[b]humility receive ^(B)the word implanted, which is able to save your souls. ^22 (C)But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not just hearers who deceive themselves. ²³ For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his ^[c]natural face ^(D)in a mirror; ²⁴ for once he has looked at himself and gone away, ^[d]he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was.
