James 1:19-25

MLV(i) 19 So-then my beloved brethren, let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to wrath. 20 For the wrath of man is not working out the righteousness of God. 21 Hence, having placed away from yourselves all filthiness and the abundance of malice, accept the implanted word in meekness, which is able to save your souls.
22 But become doers of the word and not hearers only, deluding yourselves. 23 Because if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he resembles a man considering his face (which was his from birth) in a mirror. 24 For he has considered himself, and has gone away and immediately forgot what sort of man he was. 25 But he who has peered into the complete law, the law of freedom, and has remained in it, this one, having not become a forgetful hearer, but a doer of works, this one will be fortunate in his doing.
