James 1:7

Modern King James Version

For do not let that man think that he shall receive anything from the Lord;

See the chapter Copy

You ask and receive not, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it upon your lusts.

And when you spread out your hands, I will hide My eyes from you; yea, when you make many prayers, I will not hear; your hands are full of blood.

The sacrifice of the wicked is hateful to God; how much more when he brings it with a wicked mind?

The sacrifice of the wicked is a hateful thing to Jehovah, but the prayer of the upright is His delight.

But let him ask in faith, doubting nothing. For he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.

he is a double-minded man, not dependable in all his ways.
