James 1:12
Happy is the person who remains faithful under trials,
because when he succeeds in passing such a test,
he will receive as his reward the life which
God has promised to those who love him.
If a person is tempted by such trials,
he must not say,
"This temptation comes from God."
For God cannot be tempted by evil,
and he himself tempts no one.
But a person is tempted when he is drawn away
and trapped by his own evil desire.
Then his evil desire conceives and gives birth to sin;
and sin, when it is full grown, gives birth to death.
