James 1:14

---

← James 1:13	James 1:14 (KJV)	James 1:15 →
Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:	But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.	Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
