4 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “own” →
But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain.
