Some are inclined to believe that James had Sirach 15:11-20 in mind when he wrote 1:13ff. I'm not going to dispute this suggestion now, but I wanted to post Sirach 15:11-12 in Greek, then let the reader make his or her own decision:
μὴ εἴπῃς ὅτι διὰ Κύριον ἀπέστην· ἃ γὰρ ἐμίσησεν, οὐ ποιήσεις. μὴ
εἴπῃς ὅτι αὐτός με ἐπλάνησεν· οὐ γὰρ χρείαν ἔχει ἀνδρὸς ἁμαρτωλοῦ.
