James 1:22-25

22 ^aBut prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his ^{▼▼ Lit the face of his birth; or nature}natural face ^cin a mirror; 24 for once he has looked at himself and gone away, ^{▼▼ Lit and he}he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was. 25 But one who looks intently at the perfect law, ^ethe law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but ^{▼▼ Lit a doer of a work}an effectual doer, this man will be ^gblessed in ^{▼▼ Lit his doing}what he does.
