READ IN CONTEXT · BSB

James 1

10 But the one who is rich should exult in his low position, because he will pass away like a flower of the field.

11 For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its flower falls and its beauty is lost. So too, the rich man will fade away in the midst of his pursuits.

12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him.

13 When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He tempt anyone.

14 But each one is tempted when by his own evil desires he is lured away and enticed.
