James 1:14 KJV
But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
James 1:14, King James Version
In context
13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
