James 1:15 in Context — James 1

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.

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.
