James 1:18-20

Living Bible

¹⁸ And it was a happy day for him when^[a] he gave us our new lives through the truth of his Word, and we became, as it were, the first children in his new family.

¹⁹ Dear brothers, don’t ever forget that it is best to listen much, speak little, and not become angry; ²⁰ for anger doesn’t make us good, as God demands that we must be.
