2Let it be all joy to you, my brothers, when you undergo tests of every sort;
3Because you have the knowledge that the testing of your faith gives you the power of going on in hope;
4But let this power have its full effect, so that you may be made complete, needing nothing.
5But if any man among you is without wisdom, let him make his request to God, who gives freely to all without an unkind word, and it will be given to him.
6Let him make his request in faith, doubting nothing; for he who has doubt in his heart is like the waves of the sea, which are troubled by the driving of the wind.
7Let it not seem to such a man that he will get anything from the Lord;
8For there is a division in his mind, and he is uncertain in all his ways.
