James 1:10 Context
8A double minded man is vnstable in all his wayes. 9Let the brother of low degree, reioyce in that he is exalted: 10But the rich, in that hee is made low: because as the floure of the grasse he shall passe away. 11For the Sunne is no sooner risen with a burning heate, but it withereth the grasse; and the flowre thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his wayes. 12Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when hee is tried, hee shall receiue the crowne of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that loue him.
