James 1:7

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition 2021

For the doubter, being double-minded and unstable in every way, must not expect to receive anything from the Lord.

See the chapter Copy

You ask and do not receive because you ask wrongly, in order to spend what you get on your pleasures.

When you stretch out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you; even though you make many prayers, I will not listen; your hands are full of blood.

The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination; how much more when brought with evil intent.

The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, but the prayer of the upright is his delight.

But ask in faith, never doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind.
