James 5:11

Exhortation To Patience

¹⁰ An example, take ye, brethren, of distress and patience, - the prophets who have spoken in the name of the Lord. ¹¹ Lo! we pronounce them happy who have endured; - Of the endurance of Job, ye have heard, and, the end of the Lord, have ye seen, - that, of much tender affection, is the Lord, and full of compassion, ¹² But, before all things, my brethren, do not swear, - either by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your Yea be yea, and your Nay nay, - lest, under judgment, ye fall.
