13 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: |
14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. |
15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. |
16 Do not err, my beloved brethren. |
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. |
18 Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures. |
