Let no man say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God," for God can't be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.

and you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing, and say, "Sit here in a good place;" and you tell the poor man, "Stand there," or "Sit by my footstool;"

What good is it, my brothers, if a man says he has faith, but has no works? Can faith save him?

Yes, a man will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without works, and I by my works will show you my faith.

and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness;" and he was called the friend of God.

Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, "The Spirit who lives in us yearns jealously"?

But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow let's go into this city, and spend a year there, trade, and make a profit."

For you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will both live, and do this or that."
