3.须知横逆之来，能磨练尔之信德，使尔坚忍不拔，4.而坚忍不拔，乃所以玉汝于成，而跻尔于纯全无缺之地也。5.若尔中有人智慧不足，则当求之天主，终必如愿以偿；盖天主赐人至厚，博爱慈祥，而不事呵叱也。6.然务必求之以信，莫存丝毫狐疑。狐疑之人，如海上波涛，因风而起，随风而转，漫无定止；7.若是之人，莫望有所受于主也。8.怀二心者，其立身处世，难乎其有恒矣！9.兄弟之中，贫贱者应以高尚自庆，10.富贵者应以谦恭为乐。盖世之荣华，犹如草花，不久即谢；11.烈日以曝之，毒热以熏之，而草槁矣，而花落矣，而其美亡矣。富贵之终归衰落亦复如是。12.身处逆境而能坚忍自守者，乃为有福之人。盖经试练而不渝者，必获生命之冠，此固天主所许于其孝爱之子也。13.如有人为诱惑所苦，勿曰为天主所诱；夫天主纯善，不能被诱于恶，讵能诱人于恶？14.人之见诱，皆受其自身情欲之煽惑勾引；15.情欲孕而罪孽生，罪孽长成，死亡随之。16.故我亲爱之兄弟，幸勿自误！17.一切美德嘉惠，莫不来自天上，降自光明之父。惟父恒常不变，永无晦蚀。18.惟父凭其自由圣意，以真实无妄之道，予吾人以再造，俾充先荐之果，而与万物更始。
Bible, King James Version
James
[3] Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
[4] But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
[5] If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
[6] But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
[7] For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
[8] A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
[9] Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:
[10] But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.
[11] For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.
[12] Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
[13] Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
[14] But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
[15] Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
[16] Do not err, my beloved brethren.
[17] Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
[18] Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
