James 3:2

If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain.

He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:

For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.

Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?

For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.

As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

If they sin against thee, (for there is no man that sinneth not,) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captives unto the land of the enemy, far or near;

But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

If they sin against thee, (for there is no man which sinneth not,) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them over before their enemies, and they carry them away captives unto a land far off or near;

Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.

Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:

But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
