James 1:11

Translation: KJV
9Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:Select James 1:9
10But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.Select James 1:10
11For 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.Select James 1:11
12Blessed 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.Select James 1:12
13Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:Select James 1:13
