WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)
1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are of the Dispersion, greeting.
1 JACOBO, siervo de Dios y del Señor Jesucristo, á las doce tribus que están esparcidas, salud.
1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are in the Dispersion: Greetings.
2 Count it all joy, my brethren, when ye fall into manifold temptations;
2 Hermanos míos, tened por sumo gozo cuando cayereis en diversas tentaciones;
2 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you fall into various temptations,
3 Knowing that the proof of your faith worketh patience.
3 Sabiendo que la prueba de vuestra fe obra paciencia.
3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
4 And let patience have [its ]perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, lacking in nothing.
4 Mas tenga la paciencia perfecta [su] obra, para que seáis perfectos y cabales, sin faltar en alguna cosa.
4 Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
5 But if any of you lacketh wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all liberally and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
5 Y si alguno de vosotros tiene falta de sabiduría, demándela á Dios, el cual da á todos abundantemente, y no zahiere; y le será dada.
5 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing doubting: for he that doubteth is like the surge of the sea driven by the wind and tossed.
6 Pero pida en fe, no dudando nada: porque el que duda es semejante á la onda de la mar, que es movida del viento, y echada de una parte á otra.
6 But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.
7 For let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord;
7 No piense pues el tal hombre que recibirá ninguna cosa del Señor.
7 For that man shouldn’t think that he will receive anything from the Lord.
8 a doubleminded man, unstable in all his ways.
8 El hombre de doblado ánimo es inconstante en todos sus caminos.
8 He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
9 But let the brother of low degree glory in his high estate:
9 El hermano que es de baja suerte, gloríese en su alteza:
9 Let the brother in humble circumstances glory in his high position;
10 and the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.
10 Mas el que es rico, en su bajeza; porque él se pasará como la flor de la hierba.
10 and the rich, in that he is made humble, because like the flower in the grass, he will pass away.
11 For the sun ariseth with the scorching wind, and withereth the grass; and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his goings.
11 Porque salido el sol con ardor, la hierba se secó, y su flor se cayó, y pereció su hermosa apariencia: así también se marchitará el rico en todos sus caminos.
11 For the sun arises with the scorching wind and withers the grass; and the flower in it falls, and the beauty of its appearance perishes. So the rich man will also fade away in his pursuits.
12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he hath been approved, he shall receive the crown of life, which [the Lord ]promised to them that love him.
12 Bienaventurado el varón que sufre la tentación; porque cuando fuere probado, recibirá la corona de vida, que Dios ha prometido á los que le aman.
12 Blessed is a person who endures temptation, for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord promised to those who love him.
13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempteth no man:
13 Cuando alguno es tentado, no diga que es tentado de Dios: porque Dios no puede ser tentado de los malos, ni él tienta á alguno:
13 Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God can’t be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.
14 but each man is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed.
14 Sino que cada uno es tentado, cuando de su propia concupiscencia es atraído, y cebado.
14 But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own lust and enticed.
15 Then the lust, when it hath conceived, beareth sin: and the sin, when it is fullgrown, bringeth forth death.
15 Y la concupiscencia, después que ha concebido, pare el pecado: y el pecado, siendo cumplido, engendra muerte.
15 Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin. The sin, when it is full grown, produces death.
16 Be not deceived, my beloved brethren.
16 Amados hermanos míos, no erréis.
16 Don’t be deceived, my beloved brothers.
17 Every good gift and every perfect boon is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, neither shadow that is cast by turning.
17 Toda buena dádiva y todo don perfecto es de lo alto, que desciende del Padre de las luces, en el cual no hay mudanza, ni sombra de variación.
17 Every 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.
18 Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
18 El, de su voluntad nos ha engendrado por la palabra de verdad, para que seamos primicias de sus criaturas.
18 Of 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.
19 Ye know [this], my beloved brethren. But let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
19 Por esto, mis amados hermanos, todo hombre sea pronto para oir, tardío para hablar, tardío para airarse:
19 So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger;
20 for the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
20 Porque la ira del hombre no obra la justicia de Dios.
20 for the anger of man doesn’t produce the righteousness of God.
21 Wherefore putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
21 Por lo cual, dejando toda inmundicia y superfluidad de malicia, recibid con mansedumbre la palabra ingerida, la cual puede hacer salvas vuestras almas.
21 Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deluding your own selves.
22 Mas sed hacedores de la palabra, y no tan solamente oidores, engañándoos á vosotros mismos.
22 But be doers of the word, and not only hearers, deluding your own selves.
23 For if any one is a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a mirror:
23 Porque si alguno oye la palabra, y no la pone por obra, este tal es semejante al hombre que considera en un espejo su rostro natural.
23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man looking at his natural face in a mirror;
24 for he beholdeth himself, and goeth away, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
24 Porque él se consideró á sí mismo, y se fué, y luego se olvidó qué tal era.
24 for he sees himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.
25 But he that looketh into the perfect law, the [law ]of liberty, and [so ]continueth, being not a hearer that forgetteth, but a doer that worketh, this man shall be blessed in his doing.
25 Mas el que hubiere mirado atentamente en la perfecta ley, [que es] la de la libertad, y perseverado [en ella], no siendo oidor olvidadizo, sino hacedor de la obra, este tal será bienaventurado en su hecho.
25 But he who looks into the perfect law of freedom and continues, not being a hearer who forgets but a doer of the work, this man will be blessed in what he does.
26 If any man thinketh himself to be religious, while he bridleth not his tongue but deceiveth his heart, this man’s religion is vain.
26 Si alguno piensa ser religioso entre vosotros, y no refrena su lengua, sino engañando su corazón, la religión del tal es vana.
26 If anyone among you thinks himself to be religious while he doesn’t bridle his tongue, but deceives his heart, this man’s religion is worthless.
27 Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, [and ]to keep himself unspotted from the world.
27 La religión pura y sin mácula delante de Dios y Padre es esta: Visitar los huérfanos y las viudas en sus tribulaciones, y guardarse sin mancha de este mundo.
27 Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
But I hungered and thirsted not even after those first works of Thine, but after Thee Thyself, the Truth, "with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning;" yet they still served up to me in those dishes glowing phantasies, than which better were it to love this very sun (which, at least, is true to our sight), than those …

… not by passion, or union, not in ignorance, not by effluence, not by diminution, not by alteration, for every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, neither shadow of turning.

How, therefore, are demons driven off by them, diseases dispelled, sick persons made well, the blind restored to sight, lepers purified, temptations and troubles overcome, and how does every good gift from the Father of lights come down through them to those who pray with sure faith?
