| James 1:2 | Count it all joy, my brethren, when ye fall into various temptations, | My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; | Count it all joy, my brothers, when you fall into various temptations, |
| James 1:3 | knowing that the proving of your faith works endurance. | Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. | Knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. |
| James 1:4 | But let endurance have [its] perfect work, that ye may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. | But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. | Let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. |

| James 1:11 | For the sun has risen with its burning heat, and has withered the grass, and its flower has fallen, and the comeliness of its look has perished: thus the rich also shall wither in his goings. | 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. | For the sun arises with the scorching wind, and withers the grass, and the flower in it falls, and the beauty of its appearance perishes.
