James 1:22-25

New American Standard Bible

^22 (A)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 ^[a]natural face ^(B)in a mirror; ²⁴ for once he has looked at himself and gone away, ^[b]he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was. ²⁵ But one who has looked intently at the perfect law, ^(C)the law of freedom, and has continued in it, not having become a forgetful hearer but ^[c]an active doer, this person will be ^(D)blessed in ^[d]what he does.
