James 1:10 in Context — James 1

8 c’est un homme irrésolu, inconstant dans toutes ses voies.

9 Que le frère de condition humble se glorifie de son élévation.

10 Que le riche, au contraire, se glorifie de son humiliation; car il passera comme la fleur de l’herbe.

11 Le soleil s’est levé avec sa chaleur ardente, il a desséché l’herbe, sa fleur est tombée, et la beauté de son aspect a disparu: ainsi le riche se flétrira dans ses entreprises.

12 Heureux l’homme qui supporte patiemment la tentation; car, après avoir été éprouvé, il recevra la couronne de vie, que le Seigneur a promise à ceux qui l’aiment.
