James 4:17
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Anyone, then, who knows the right thing to do, yet fails to do it, is guilty of sin.
In context
15 Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord is willing, we will live and do this or that.”
16 As it is, you boast in your proud intentions. All such boasting is evil.
17 Anyone, then, who knows the right thing to do, yet fails to do it, is guilty of sin.
