James 1:18-21 Having willed it, He brought us forth with a word of truth, that we might be a certain first-fruit of His creatures.

Worrell⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁸ Having willed it, He brought us forth with a word of truth, that we might be a certain first-fruit of His creatures. ¹⁹ Ye know this, my beloved brethren; but let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; ²⁰ for man's wrath works not God's righteousness. ²¹ Wherefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive in meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
