12 Blessed is the man who endures trial, for when he has been tested he will gain the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love him.
13 No one must say when tempted, "My temptation comes from God." For God cannot be tempted by evil, and he tempts no one.
14 Every one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own passions and enticed.
15 Then when passion has conceived it gives birth to sin, and sin, when it is full grown, gives birth to death.
