James 1:22

NETBible

But be sure you live out the message and do not merely listen to it and so deceive yourselves.

NIV ©

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.

NASB ©

But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves.

NLT ©

And remember, it is a message to obey, not just to listen to. If you don’t obey, you are only fooling yourself.

MSG ©

Don't fool yourself into thinking that you are a listener when you are anything but, letting the Word go in one ear and out the other. Act on what you hear!

BBE ©

But be doers of the word, and not only hearers of it, blinding yourselves with false ideas.

NRSV ©

But be doers of the word, and not merely hearers who deceive themselves.

NKJV ©

But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
