James 1:14 in Context — James 1

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.

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:

14 Sino que cada uno es tentado, cuando de su propia concupiscencia es atraído, y cebado.

15 Y la concupiscencia, después que ha concebido, pare el pecado: y el pecado, siendo cumplido, engendra muerte.

16 Amados hermanos míos, no erréis.
