James 1:24 CPDV

²²  So be doers of the Word, and not listeners only, deceiving yourselves.

²³  For if anyone is a listener of the Word, but not also a doer, he is comparable to a man gazing into a mirror upon the face that he was born with;

²⁴  and after considering himself, he went away and promptly forgot what he had seen.

²⁵  But he who gazes upon the perfect law of liberty, and who remains in it, is not a forgetful hearer, but instead a doer of the work. He shall be blessed in what he does.

²⁶  But if anyone considers himself to be religious, but he does not restrain his tongue, but instead seduces his own heart: such a one's religion is vanity.
