James 1:22-25
21st Century King James Version
22 But be ye doers of the Word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
23 For if any be a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a mirror;
24 for he beholdeth himself, and then goeth his way and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

American Standard Version
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deluding your own selves. 23 For if any one is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding [a]his natural face in a mirror: 24 for he beholdeth himself, and goeth away, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25 But he that looketh into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and so continueth, being not a hearer that forgetteth but a doer that worketh, this man shall be blessed in his doing.
