The Testing of Your Faith
1作神和主耶稣基督仆人的雅各请散住十二个支派之人的安。
1James, a bond-servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ,
To the twelve tribes who are dispersed abroad: Greetings.
To the twelve tribes who are dispersed abroad: Greetings.
2我的弟兄们,你们落在百般试炼中,都要以为大喜乐;3因为知道你们的信心经过试验,就生忍耐。4但忍耐也当成功,使你们成全、完备,毫无缺欠。
2Consider it all joy, my brothers and sisters, when you encounter various trials, 3knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. 4And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
5你们中间若有缺少智慧的,应当求那厚赐与众人、也不斥责人的神,主就必赐给他。6只要凭着信心求,一点不疑惑;因为那疑惑的人,就像海中的波浪,被风吹动翻腾。7这样的人不要想从主那里得什么。8心怀二意的人,在他一切所行的路上都没有定见。
5But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him. 6But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. 7For that person ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord, 8being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
9卑微的弟兄升高,就该喜乐;10富足的降卑,也该如此;因为他必要过去,如同草上的花一样。11太阳出来,热风刮起,草就枯干,花也凋谢,美容就消没了;那富足的人,在他所行的事上也要这样衰残。
9Now the brother or sister of humble circumstances is to glory in his high position; 10but the rich person is to glory in his humiliation, because like flowering grass he will pass away. 11For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass; and its flower falls off and the beauty of its appearance is destroyed; so also the rich person, in the midst of his pursuits, will die out.
12忍受试探的人是有福的,因为他经过试验以后,必得生命的冠冕;这是主应许给那些爱他之人的。13人被试探,不可说:「我是被神试探」;因为神不能被恶试探,他也不试探人。14但各人被试探,乃是被自己的私欲牵引诱惑的。15私欲既怀了胎,就生出罪来;罪既长成,就生出死来。16我亲爱的弟兄们,不要看错了。17各样美善的恩赐和各样全备的赏赐都是从上头来的,从众光之父那里降下来的;在他并没有改变,也没有转动的影儿。18他按自己的旨意,用真道生了我们,叫我们在他所造的万物中好像初熟的果子。
12Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. 13No one is to say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does not tempt anyone. 14But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. 15Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it has run its course, brings forth death. 16Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers and sisters. 17Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow. 18In the exercise of His will He gave us birth by the word of truth, so that we would be a kind of first fruits among His creatures.
19我亲爱的弟兄们,这是你们所知道的。但你们各人要快快地听,慢慢地说,慢慢地动怒,20因为人的怒气并不成就神的义。21所以,你们要脱去一切的污秽和盈余的邪恶,存温柔的心领受那所栽种的道,就是能救你们灵魂的道。22只是你们要行道,不要单单听道,自己欺哄自己。23因为听道而不行道的,就像人对着镜子看自己本来的面目,24看见,走后,随即忘了他的相貌如何。25惟有详细察看那全备、使人自由之律法的,并且时常如此,这人既不是听了就忘,乃是实在行出来,就在他所行的事上必然得福。
19You know this, my beloved brothers and sisters. Now everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger; 20for a man’s anger does not bring about the righteousness of God. 21Therefore, ridding yourselves of all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive the word implanted, which is able to save your souls. 22But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not just hearers who deceive themselves. 23For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror; 24for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was. 25But one who has looked intently at the perfect law, the law of freedom, and has continued in it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an active doer, this person will be blessed in what he does.
26若有人自以为虔诚,却不勒住他的舌头,反欺哄自己的心,这人的虔诚是虚的。27在神我们的父面前,那清洁没有玷污的虔诚,就是看顾在患难中的孤儿寡妇,并且保守自己不沾染世俗。
26If anyone thinks himself to be religious, yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this person’s religion is worthless. 27Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
