James 1:13+15

James 1:13–15 ESV

13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one. 14 But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. 15 Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.

Let no one say when he is tempted

I am being tempted by God

For God cannot be tempted with evil

And he tempts no one

But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire

Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin

And sin when it is fully grown brings forth death
