NASB
"for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was."
— James 1:24, NASB
“For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.”
“for he beholdeth himself, and goeth away, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. ”
“for he sees himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.”
“For he gazes at himself and then goes out and immediately forgets what sort of person he was.”
“For he beheld himself and went his way and presently forgot what manner of man he was.”
“For after looking at himself he goes away, and in a short time he has no memory of what he was like.”
“For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.”
Therefore, putting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive the word implanted, which is able to save your souls.
But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves.
For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror;
for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was.
But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man will be blessed in what he does.
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man's religion is worthless.
Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
