James 1:11

---

← James 1:10	James 1:11 (KJV)	James 1:12 →
But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.	For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.	Blessed [is] the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
