St James 1:8-12 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

8. A double minded man is inconstant in all his ways.

9. But let the brother of low condition glory in his exaltation:

10. And the rich, in his being low; because as the flower of the grass shall he pass away.

11. For the sun rose with a burning heat, and parched the grass, and the flower thereof fell off, and the beauty of the shape thereof perished: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.

12. Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he hath been proved, he shall receive a crown of life, which God hath promised to them that love him.
