1My^G3450 brethren^G80, hold^G2192 not^G3361 the faith^G4102 of our^G2257 Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547, the Lord of glory^G1391, with^G1722 respect of persons^G4382. 2For^G1063 if^G1437 there come^G1525 into^G1519 your^G5216 synagogue^G4864 a man^G435 with a gold ring^G5554, in^G1722 fine^G2986 clothing^G2066, and^G1161 there come in^G1525 also^G2532 a poor man^G4434 in^G1722 vile^G4508 clothing^G2066; 3and^G2532 ye have regard^G1914 to^G1909 him that^G3588 weareth^G5409 the fine^G2986 clothing^G2066, and^G2532 say^G2036, Sit^G2521 thou^G4771 here^G5602 in a good place^G2573; and^G2532 ye say^G2036 to the poor^G4434 man, Stand^G2476 thou^G4771 there^G1563, or^G2228 sit^G2521 under^G5259 my^G3450 footstool^G5286; 4do ye^G1252 not^G3756 make^G2532 distinctions^G1252 among^G1722 yourselves^G1438, and^G2532 become^G1096 judges^G2923 with evil^G4190 thoughts^G1261? 5Hearken^G191, my^G3450 beloved^G27 brethren^G80; did^G1586 not^G3756 God^G2316 choose^G1586 them that are poor^G4434 as to the^G5127 world^G2889 to be rich^G4145 in^G1722 faith^G4102, and^G2532 heirs^G2818 of the kingdom^G932 which^G3739 he promised^G1861 to them that^G3588 love^G25 him^G846? 6But^G1161 ye^G5210 have dishonored^G818 the poor^G4434 man. Do^G2616 not^G3756 the rich^G4145 oppress^G2616 you^G5216, and^G2532 themselves^G846 drag^G1670 you^G5209 before^G1519 the judgment-seats^G2922? 7Do^G987 not^G3756 they^G846 blaspheme^G987 the honorable^G2570 name^G3686 by^G1909 which^G3588 ye^G5209 are called^G1941? 8Howbeit^G3305 if^G1487 ye fulfil^G5055 the royal^G937 law^G3551, according to^G2596 the scripture^G1124, Thou shalt love^G25 thy^G4675 neighbor^G4139 as^G5613 thyself^G4572, ye do^G4160 well^G2573: 9but^G1161 if^G1487 ye have respect of persons^G4380, ye commit^G2038 sin^G266, being convicted^G1651 by^G5259 the law^G3551 as^G5613 transgressors^G3848. 10For^G1063 whosoever^G3748 shall keep^G5083 the whole^G3650 law^G3551, and yet^G1161 stumble^G4417 in^G1722 one^G1520 point, he is^G1096 become guilty^G1777 of all^G3956. 11For^G1063 he that said^G2036, Do^G3431 not^G3361 commit adultery^G3431, said^G2036 also^G2532, Do^G5407 not^G3361 kill^G5407. Now^G1161 if^G1487 thou dost not^G3756 commit^G3431 adultery^G3431, but^G1161 killest^G5407, thou art become^G1096 a transgressor^G3848 of the law^G3551. 12So^G3779 speak ye^G2980, and^G2532 so^G3779 do^G4160, as^G5613 men that are^G3195 to be judged^G2919 by^G1223 a law^G3551 of liberty^G1657. 13For^G1063 judgment^G2920 is without mercy^G448 to him^G4160 that hath showed^G4160 no^G3361 mercy^G1656: mercy^G1656 glorieth against^G2620 judgment^G2920. 14What^G5101 doth it profit^G3786, my^G3450 brethren^G80, if^G1437 a man^G5100 say^G3004 he hath^G2192 faith^G4102, but^G1161 have^G2192 not^G3361 works^G3361? can^G1410 that faith^G4102 save^G4982 him^G846? 15If^G1437 a brother^G80 or^G2228 sister^G79 be^G5225 naked^G1131 and^G2532 in lack^G3007 of^G5600 daily^G2184 food^G5160, 16and^G1161 one^G5100 of^G1537 you^G5216 say^G2036 unto them^G846, Go^G5217 in^G1722 peace^G1515, be^G2328 ye warmed^G2328 and^G2532 filled^G5526; and yet^G1161 ye give^G1325 them^G846 not^G3361 the things needful^G2006 to the body^G4983; what^G5101 doth it profit^G3786? 17Even^G2532 so^G3779 faith^G4102, if^G1437 it have^G2192 not^G3361 works^G2041, is^G2076 dead^G3498 in^G2596 itself^G1438. 18Yea^G235, a man^G5100 will say^G2046, Thou^G4771 hast^G2192 faith^G4102, and I^G2504 have^G2192 works^G2041: show^G1166 me^G3427 thy^G4675 faith^G4102 apart^G1537 from thy^G4675 works^G2041, and I^G2504 by^G1537 my^G3450 works^G2041 will show^G1166 thee^G4671 my^G3450 faith^G4102. 19Thou^G4771 believest^G4100 that^G3754 God^G2316 is^G2076 one^G1520; thou doest^G4160 well^G2573: the demons^G1140 also^G2532 believe^G4100, and^G2532 shudder^G5425. 20But^G1161 wilt^G2309 thou know^G1097, O^G5599 vain^G2756 man^G444, that^G3754 faith^G4102 apart^G5565 from works^G2041 is^G2076 barren^G3498? 21Was not^G3756 Abraham^G11 our^G2257 father^G3962 justified^G1344 by^G1537 works^G2041, in that he offered^G399 up Isaac^G2464 his^G846 son^G5207 upon^G1909 the altar^G2379? 22Thou^G991 seest that^G3754 faith^G4102 wrought with^G4903 his^G846 works^G2041, and^G2532 by^G1537 works^G2041 was^G5048 faith^G4102 made perfect^G5048; 23and^G2532 the scripture^G1124 was fulfilled^G4137 which saith^G1161, And Abraham^G11 believed^G4100 God^G2316, and^G2532 it was reckoned^G3049 unto him^G846 for^G1519 righteousness^G1343; and^G2532 he was called^G2564 the friend^G5384 of God^G2316. 24Ye see^G3708 that^G3754 by^G1537 works^G2041 a man^G444 is justified^G1344, and^G2532 not^G3756 only^G3440 by^G1537 faith^G4102. 25And in like manner^G3668 was^G1344 not^G3756 also^G2532 Rahab^G4460 the harlot^G4204 justified^G1344 by^G1537 works^G2041, in that she received^G5264 the messengers^G32, and^G2532 sent^G1544 them out^G1544 another^G2087 way^G3598? 26For^G1063 as^G5618 the body^G4983 apart^G5565 from the spirit^G4151 is^G2076 dead^G3498, even^G2532 so^G3779 faith^G4102 apart^G5565 from works^G2041 is^G2076 dead^G3498.
