My brothers,G80 haveG2192 not the faithG4102 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 Christ,G5547 the Lord of glory,G1391 with respectG4382 of persons.G4382
2
For ifG1437 there comeG1525 to yourG5216 assemblyG4864 a manG435 with a goldG5554 ring,G5554 in goodlyG2986 apparel,G2066 and there comeG1525 in alsoG2532 a poorG4434 man in vileG4508 raiment;G2066
3
And you have respectG1914 to him that wearsG5409 the gayG2986 clothing,G2066 and sayG2036 to him, SitG2521 you hereG5602 in a goodG2573 place; and sayG2036 to the poor,G4434 StandG2476 you there,G1563 orG2228 sitG2521 hereG5602 underG5259 my footstool:G5286
4
Are you not thenG2532 partialG1252 in yourselves,G1438 and are becomeG1096 judgesG2923 of evilG4190 thoughts?G1261
5
Listen,G191 my belovedG27 brothers,G80 Has not GodG2316 chosenG1586 the poorG4434 of thisG5127 worldG2889 richG4145 in faith,G4102 and heirsG2818 of the kingdomG932 whichG3739 he has promisedG1861 to them that loveG25 him?
6
But you have despisedG818 the poor.G4434 Do not richG4145 men oppressG2616 you, and drawG1670 you beforeG1519 the judgmentG2922 seats?
7
Do not they blasphemeG987 that worthyG2570 nameG3686 by the whichG3588 you are called?G1941
8
IfG1487 you fulfillG5055 the royalG937 lawG3551 accordingG2596 to the scripture,G1124 You shall loveG25 your neighborG4139 as yourself,G4572 you doG4160 well:G2573
9
But ifG1487 you have respectG4380 to persons,G4380 you commitG2038 sin,G266 and are convincedG1651 of the lawG3551 as transgressors.G3848
10
For whoeverG3748 shall keepG5083 the wholeG3650 law,G3551 and yet offendG4417 in oneG1520 point, he is guiltyG1777 of all.G3956
11
For he that said,G2036 Do not commitG3431 adultery,G3431 saidG2036 also,G2532 Do not kill.G5407 NowG1161 ifG1487 you commitG3431 noG3756 adultery,G3431 yetG1161 if you kill,G5407 you are becomeG1096 a transgressorG3848 of the law.G3551
12
SoG3779 speakG2980 you, and soG3779 do,G4160 as they that shall be judgedG2919 by the lawG3551 of liberty.G1657
13
For he shall have judgmentG2920 withoutG448 mercy,G448 that has showedG4160 noG3361 mercy;G1656 and mercyG1656 rejoicesG2620 againstG2620 judgment.G2920
14
WhatG5101 does it profit,G3786 my brothers,G80 thoughG1437 a manG5100 sayG3004 he hasG2192 faith,G4102 and haveG2192 not works?G2041 canG1410 faithG4102 saveG4982 him?
15
IfG1437 a brotherG80 orG2228 sisterG79 be naked,G1131 and destituteG3007 of dailyG2184 food,G5160
16
And oneG5100 of you sayG2036 to them, DepartG5217 in peace,G1515 be you warmedG2328 and filled;G5526 notwithstanding you giveG1325 them not thoseG3588 things which are needfulG2006 to the body;G4983 whatG5101 does it profit?G3786
17
EvenG2532 soG3779 faith,G4102 ifG1437 it hasG2192 not works,G2041 is dead,G3498 being alone.G2596 G1438
18
Yes,G235 a manG5100 may say,G2046 You haveG2192 faith,G4102 and I have works:G2041 showG1166 me your faithG4102 withoutG5565 your works,G2041 and I will showG1166 you my faithG4102 by my works.G2041
19
You believeG4100 that there is oneG1520 God;G2316 you doG4160 well:G2573 the devilsG1140 alsoG2532 believe,G4100 and tremble.G5425
20
But willG2309 you know,G1097 O vainG2756 man,G444 that faithG4102 withoutG5565 worksG2041 is dead?G3498
21
Was not AbrahamG11 our fatherG3962 justifiedG1344 by works,G2041 when he had offeredG399 IsaacG2464 his sonG5207 on the altar?G2379
22
SeeG991 you howG3754 faithG4102 workedG4903 with his works,G2041 and by worksG2041 was faithG4102 madeG5048 perfect?G5048
23
And the scriptureG1124 was fulfilledG4137 whichG3588 said,G3004 AbrahamG11 believedG4100 God,G2316 and it was imputedG3049 to him for righteousness:G1343 and he was calledG2564 the FriendG5384 of God.G2316
24
You seeG3708 thenG5106 how that by worksG2041 a manG444 is justified,G1344 and not by faithG4102 only.G3440
25
LikewiseG3668 alsoG2532 was not RahabG4460 the harlotG4204 justifiedG1344 by works,G2041 when she had receivedG5264 the messengers,G32 and had sentG1524 them out anotherG2087 way?G3598
26
For as the bodyG4983 withoutG5565 the spiritG4151 is dead,G3498 soG3779 faithG4102 withoutG5565 worksG2041 is deadG3498 also.G2532
