"Now a humble brother should glory in his exaltation, "
— James 1:9, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:”
“But let the brother of low degree glory in his high estate: ”
“But let the brother in humble circumstances glory in his high position;”
“Now the believer of humble means should take pride in his high position.”
“But let the brother of low condition glory in his exaltation:”
“But let the brother of low position be glad that he is lifted up;”
“Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:”
But he should ask with faith, doubting nothing. For he who doubts is like a wave on the ocean, which is moved about by the wind and carried away;
then a man should not consider that he would receive anything from the Lord.
For a man who is of two minds is inconstant in all his ways.
Now a humble brother should glory in his exaltation,
and a rich one, in his humiliation, for he will pass away like the flower of the grass.
For the sun has risen with a scorching heat, and has dried the grass, and its flower has fallen off, and the appearance of its beauty has perished. So also will the rich one wither away, according to his paths.
Blessed is the man who suffers temptation. For when he has been proven, he shall receive the crown of life which God has promised to those who love him.
