22But be ye doers of the word and not hearers only, beguiling yourselves.


In Context

19 So that, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath;

20 for man's wrath does not work God's righteousness.

21 Wherefore, laying aside all filthiness and abounding of wickedness, accept with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

22 But be ye doers of the word and not hearers only, beguiling yourselves.

23 For if any man be a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like to a man considering his natural face in a mirror:

24 for he has considered himself and is gone away, and straightway he has forgotten what he was like.
