| 1:12 | Blessed is the man who suffers temptation. For when he has been proven, he shall receive the crown of life which God has promised to those who love him. |
| 1:13 | No one should say, when he is tempted, that he was tempted by God. For God does not entice toward evils, and he himself tempts no one. |
| 1:14 | No obstant això, de veritat, each one is tempted by his own desires, having been enticed and drawn away. |
| 1:15 | Després, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin. Yet truly sin, when it has been consummated, produces death. |
| 1:16 | I així, do not choose to go astray, els meus germans més estimats. |
| 1:17 | Cada regal excel·lent i cada regal perfecte és de dalt, descendint del Pare de les llums, amb qui no hi ha canvi, ni cap ombra d'alteració. |
| 1:18 | Perquè per la seva pròpia voluntat ens va produir a través de la Paraula de veritat, perquè puguem ser una mena de començament entre les seves criatures. |
