James 1:13 in Context — James 1
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.
13 Que personne, lorsqu’il est tenté, ne dise: C’est Dieu qui me tente. Car Dieu ne peut être tenté par le mal, et il ne tente lui-même personne.
14 Mais chacun est tenté quand il est attiré et amorcé par sa propre convoitise.
15 Puis la convoitise, lorsqu’elle a conçu, enfante le péché; et le péché, étant consommé, produit la mort.
