James 5:11-13

New Matthew Bible

¹¹ Behold, we count them happy who endure. You have heard of the patience of Job, and have known what end the Lord made. For the Lord is very pitiful and merciful.

¹² But above all things, my brethren, swear not – neither by heaven, nor by earth, nor by any other oath. Let your yes be yes, and your no no, lest you fall into hypocrisy.

¹³ If any of you be vexed with sorrows, let him pray. If any of you be merry, let him sing psalms.
