James 1:9-12
English Standard Version
9 Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation, 10 and (A)the rich in his humiliation, because (B)like a flower of the grass[a] he will pass away. 11 For the sun rises with its scorching heat and (C)withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So also will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.
12 (D)Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive (E)the crown of life, (F)which God has promised to those who love him.

In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and (B)hunger, abundance and (C)need. 13 I can do all things (D)through him who strengthens me.
