1:12-27 James addresses the same three topics as in 1:2-11, adding a new dimension to each topic. External testing (1:2-4) becomes internal temptation (1:11-18); the need for wisdom (1:5-8) is related to controlling angry speech (1:19-21); and poverty/wealth relate to the need to act upon God’s word (1:22-25). The section then summarizes these themes (1:26-27).
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
γὰρ
for
James uses For to introduce the reason why people should not get angry, as he said in the previous verse. Alternate translation: “You should not get angry, because”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
ὀργὴ & ἀνδρὸς
/the/_wrath & ˱of˲_/a/_human
James is using the term man in a generic sense that includes both men and women. Alternate translation: “human anger”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
δικαιοσύνην Θεοῦ οὐκ ἐργάζεται
/the/_righteousness ˱of˲_God not /is/_producing
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the abstract noun righteousness by translating the idea behind it with an adjective such as “righteous” or “right.” Alternate translation: “does not fulfill the righteous purposes of God” or “does not accomplish the right things that God wants to do”
