Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God, and his doctrine be not evil spoken of.

When we have food and raiment, let us therewith be content.

But the sure ground of God remaineth, and hath this seal: the Lord knoweth them that are his, and let every man that calleth on the name of Christ, depart from iniquity.

For of this sort are they which enter into houses, and bring into bondage women laden with sin, which women are led of divers lusts,

And let ours also learn to excel in good works as far forth as need requireth, that they be not unfruitful.

Even so, brother, let me enjoy thee in the Lord. Comfort my heart in the Lord.

Let us fear, therefore, lest any of us forsaking the promise of entering into his rest, should seem to come behind.

Let us study therefore to enter into that rest; lest any man fall, after the same example, into unbelief:

Seeing, then, that we have a great high priest which is entered into heaven - I mean Jesus the son of God - let us hold our profession.

Let us therefore go boldly unto the seat of grace, that we may receive mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Wherefore, let us leave the doctrine pertaining to the beginning of a Christian man, and let us go unto perfection, and now no more lay the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,

let us draw nigh with a true heart in a full faith sprinkled in our hearts, from an evil conscience, and washed in our bodies with pure water,

and let us keep the profession of our hope, without wavering - for he is faithful that promised -

and let us consider one another to provoke unto love, and to good works:

and let us not forsake the fellowship that we have among ourselves, as the manner of some is: but let us exhort one another, and that so much the more, because ye see that the day draweth nigh.

Wherefore let us also - seeing that we are compassed with so great a multitude of witnesses - lay away all that presseth down, and the sin that hangeth on us, and let us run with patience, unto the battle that is set before us,

Stretch forth therefore again the hands which were let down, and the weak knees,

and see that ye have straight steps unto your feet, lest any halting turn out of the way: yea, let it rather be healed.

Let brotherly love continue.

Let wedlock be had in price in all points, and let the chamber be undefiled: for whore keepers and adulterers God will judge.

Let your conversation be without covetousness, and be content with that ye have already. For he verily said, "I will not fail thee, neither forsake thee."

Let us go forth therefore out of the tents, and suffer rebuke with him.

and let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and sound, lacking nothing.

If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, which giveth to all men indifferently and casteth no man in the teeth; and it shall be given him.

But let him ask in faith, and waver not. For he that doubteth is like the waves of the sea, tossed of the wind, and carried with violence.

Neither let that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted,

Let no man say when he is tempted that he is tempted of God: for God tempteth not unto evil, neither tempteth he any man.

Wherefore, dear brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to wrath.

If any man be wise and endued with learning among you, let him show the works of his good conversation in meekness that is coupled with wisdom.

Suffer afflictions: sorrow ye and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.

Go to now, ye that say, "Today and tomorrow let us go into such a city and continue there a year and buy, and sell, and win,"

For that, ye ought to say, "If the Lord will, and if we live, let us do this or that."

But above all things, my brethren, swear not: neither by heaven, neither by earth, neither by any other oath. Let your yea be "yea," and your nay, "nay," lest ye fall into hypocrisy.

If any of you be evil vexed, let him pray. If any of you be merry, let him sing Psalms.

If any be diseased among you, let him call for the elders of the congregation, and let them pray over him, and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord:

let the same know, that he which converted the sinner from going astray out of his way, shall save a soul from death, and shall hide the multitude of sins. {Here ends the General Epistle of James}

Likewise, let the wives be in subjection to their husbands, that even they which believe not the word, may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives:

but let the hid man of the heart be uncorrupt, with a meek and a quiet spirit, which spirit is, before God, a thing much set by.

Likewise, ye men, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as unto them that are heirs also of the grace of life, that your prayers be not let.

If any man long after life, and loveth to see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips, that they speak not guile:

Let him eschew evil and do good: let him seek peace, and ensue it.

If any man speak, let him talk as though he spake the words of God. If any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God ministereth unto him. That God, in all things, may be glorified through Jesus Christ: to whom be praise and dominion forever and while the world standeth. Amen.

If any man suffer as a Christian man, let him not be ashamed: but let him glorify God on his behalf.

Wherefore, let them that suffer according to the will of God, commit their souls to him with well doing, as unto a faithful creator.

Let therefore abide in you that same which ye heard at the beginning. If that which ye heard at the beginning shall remain in you, then ye also shall continue in the son, and in the father.

Little children, let no man beguile you; He that worketh righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

My little children, let us not love in word, nor with the tongue: but with the deed, and of a truth:

Dearly beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God. And all that love are born of God, and knoweth God.

If any man see his brother sin a sin that is not to death, let him ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death, for which say I not that a man should pray.

Let him that hath ears hear, what the spirit saith unto the congregations. To him that overcometh, will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.'

Let him that hath ears hear, what the spirit saith to the congregations: He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.'

Let him that hath ears hear what the spirit sayth unto the congregations: To him that overcometh will I give to eat Manna that is hid, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth, saving he that receiveth it.'

Let him that hath ears hear what the spirit says to the congregations.'

Let him that hath ears hear what the spirit saith unto the congregations.'

Let him that hath ears, hear what the spirit saith unto the congregations.'

Let him that hath ears, hear what the spirit saith unto the congregations.'"

If any man have an ear, let him hear.

Here is wisdom. Let him that hath wit count the number of the beast. For it is the number of a man, and his number is six hundred, threescore and six.

Let us be glad and rejoice and give honour to him: for the marriage of the lamb is come, and his wife made herself ready.

He that doth evil, let him do evil still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be more righteous: and he that is holy, let him be more holy."

And the spirit and the bride said, "Come." And let him that heareth, say also "Come." And let him that is athirst come. And let whosoever will, take of the water of life free.
