³³ These have I said to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you shall have distress; but be of heart, I have conquered the world.

¹³ Temptation cometh not (upon) you but what cometh on mankind; but faithful is Aloha, who will not permit you to be tempted more than you are able, but will make to your temptation a departure, that you may be able to endure.

²⁸ BUT we know that those who love Aloha, in every thing he helpeth them for good; them whom he set before that they might be called.

⁴ but in every thing will we demonstrate ourselves that we are the ministers of Aloha; by much patience, by afflictions, ⁵ by necessity, by imprisonments, by stripes, by chains, by tumults, by labour, by watching, by fasting, ⁶ by purity, by knowledge, by prolonging the mind, by benignity, by the Spirit of Holiness, by love without deceit, ⁷ by the doctrine of truth, by the power of Aloha, by the arms of righteousness for the right hand and for the left, ⁸ by glory and by shame, by praise and by abuse; as deceivers, and true;

¹ JAKUB, a servant of Aloha and of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, unto the twelve tribes who are dispersed among the nations: Peace. ² All joy shall be to you, my brethren, when you shall have entered into temptations many and various. ³ For you know that the proving of faith maketh you to possess patience; ⁴ but to patience let there be a perfect work, that you may be complete and perfected, and in nothing be deficient. ⁵ If any of you be deficient in wisdom, let him ask of Aloha, who giveth to all expansively, and upbraideth not, and it is given to him. ⁶ But let him ask in faith, not wavering.[Or, not being divided.] For he who wavereth is like the waves of the sea which the wind disturbeth. ⁷ And let not that man expect to receive any thing from the Lord, ⁸ who is divided in his mind, and disturbed in all his ways. ⁹ But let the humble brother glory in his exaltation, ¹⁰ and the rich in his humility; for as the flower of an herb, so he passeth. ¹¹ For the sun ariseth in his heat, and drieth the herb, and the flower of it falleth, and the beauty of its appearance perisheth; so also the rich withereth in his reverses. ¹² Blessed the man who endureth temptations: for when he hath been proved he shall receive the crown of life, which Aloha hath promised unto them who love him. ¹³ Let no man say, when he is tempted, From Aloha I am tempted; for Aloha is not tempted with evils, and he no man tempteth. ¹⁴ But each man from his concupiscence tempteth himself, and desireth, and is drawn away. ¹⁵ And this desire conceiveth and beareth sin; and sin, when it is perfected, beareth death. ¹⁶ Do not err, my beloved brethren; ¹⁷ every good gift and perfect from above descendeth, from the Father of lights, with whom is no alteration, nor the shadow of vicissitude. ¹⁸ He willed, and begat us by the word of truth, that we might be the first-ones of his creatures. ¹⁹ And you, my beloved brethren, let every one of you be swift to hear, and slow to speak, and slow to be angry; ²⁰ for the wrath of man the righteousness of Aloha worketh not. ²¹ Wherefore, remove from you all impurity and the abounding of wickedness, and with meekness receive the word which is engrafted in our nature, which is able to save your souls. ²² BUT be doers of the word, and not hearers only, neither deceive yourselves. ²³ For if a man be a hearer of the word and not a doer of it, this (man) is like one who vieweth his face in a mirror; ²⁴ for he seeth himself and passeth, and hath forgotten what (manner of person) he was. ²⁵ But every one who looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he is not a hearer of the hearing of forgetfulness, but a doer of works; and this shall be blessed in his work. ²⁶ And if a man thinketh that he serveth [Or, ministereth.] Aloha, and holdeth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, of this man his service is vain. ²⁷ For the service [Teshmeshtho, ministry.] which is pure and true before Aloha the Father, is this, to visit the orphans and widows in their afflictions, and that a man keep himself from the world without blemish.

¹² Blessed the man who endureth temptations: for when he hath been proved he shall receive the crown of life, which Aloha hath promised unto them who love him.

¹² My beloved, be not amazed at the temptations which you have, as that something strange happeneth to you, because for your probation they have been; ¹³ but rejoice that you are partakers of the sufferings of the Meshiha, that so also at the revelation of his glory you may rejoice and exult.

³ And not thus only, but also in afflictions we exult; for we know that affliction perfecteth patience in us, ⁴ and patience experience, [Or, proof, probation.] and experience hope: ⁵ but hope maketh us not ashamed, because the love of Aloha is shed forth upon our hearts by the Spirit of Holiness who is given to us.

² All joy shall be to you, my brethren, when you shall have entered into temptations many and various. ³ For you know that the proving of faith maketh you to possess patience; ⁴ but to patience let there be a perfect work, that you may be complete and perfected, and in nothing be deficient.
