(Jam 2:1) My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, {the Lord} of glory, with respect of persons.
(Jam 2:2) For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment;
(Jam 2:3) And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool:
(Jam 2:4) Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?
(Jam 2:5) Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?
(Jam 2:6) But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?
(Jam 2:7) Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called?
(Jam 2:8) If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:
(Jam 2:9) But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.
(Jam 2:10) For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one {point}, he is guilty of all.
(Jam 2:11) For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
(Jam 2:12) So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
(Jam 2:13) For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.
(Jam 2:14) What {doth it} profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
(Jam 2:15) If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,
(Jam 2:16) And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be {ye} warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what {doth it} profit?
(Jam 2:17) Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
(Jam 2:18) Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
(Jam 2:19) Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
(Jam 2:20) But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
(Jam 2:21) Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
(Jam 2:22) Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?
(Jam 2:23) And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.
(Jam 2:24) Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
(Jam 2:25) Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent {them} out another way?
(Jam 2:26) For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
