James 1:19 in context
- 17Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow.
- 18Of his own will he gave birth to us by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.
- 19So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger;
- 20for the anger of man doesn’t produce the righteousness of God.
- 21Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
