fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData My brethren, hold not, in respect of persons, the faith of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ, |
| 2 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData for if there may come into your synagogue a man with gold ring, in gay raiment, and there may come in also a poor man in vile raiment, |
| 3 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData and ye may look upon him bearing the gay raiment, and may say to him, `Thou -- sit thou here well,' and to the poor man may say, `Thou -- stand thou there, or, Sit thou here under my footstool,' -- |
| 4 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData ye did not judge fully in yourselves, and did become ill-reasoning judges. |
| 5 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Hearken, my brethren beloved, did not God choose the poor of this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the reign that He promised to those loving Him? |
| 6 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData and ye did dishonour the poor one; do not the rich oppress you and themselves draw you to judgment-seats; |
| 7 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData do they not themselves speak evil of the good name that was called upon you? |
| 8 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData If, indeed, royal law ye complete, according to the Writing, `Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself,' -- ye do well; |
| 9 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData and if ye accept persons, sin ye do work, being convicted by the law as transgressors; |
| 10 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData for whoever the whole law shall keep, and shall stumble in one `point', he hath become guilty of all; |
| 11 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData for He who is saying, `Thou mayest not commit adultery,' said also, `Thou mayest do no murder;' and if thou shalt not commit adultery, and shalt commit murder, thou hast become a transgressor of law; |
| 12 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData so speak ye and so do, as about by a law of liberty to be judged, |
| 13 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData for the judgment without kindness `is' to him not having done kindness, and exult doth kindness over judgment. |
| 14 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData What `is' the profit, my brethren, if faith, any one may speak of having, and works he may not have? is that faith able to save him? |
| 15 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData and if a brother or sister may be naked, and may be destitute of the daily food, |
| 16 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData and any one of you may say to them, `Depart ye in peace, be warmed, and be filled,' and may not give to them the things needful for the body, what `is' the profit? |
| 17 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData so also the faith, if it may not have works, is dead by itself. |
| 18 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData But say may some one, Thou hast faith, and I have works, shew me thy faith out of thy works, and I will shew thee out of my works my faith: |
| 19 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData thou -- thou dost believe that God is one; thou dost well, and the demons believe, and they shudder! |
| 20 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData And dost thou wish to know, O vain man, that the faith apart from the works is dead? |
| 21 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Abraham our father -- was not he declared righteous out of works, having brought up Isaac his son upon the altar? |
| 22 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData dost thou see that the faith was working with his works, and out of the works the faith was perfected? |
| 23 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData and fulfilled was the Writing that is saying, `And Abraham did believe God, and it was reckoned to him -- to righteousness;' and, `Friend of God' he was called. |
| 24 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Ye see, then, that out of works is man declared righteous, and not out of faith only; |
| 25 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData and in like manner also Rahab the harlot -- was she not out of works declared righteous, having received the messengers, and by another way having sent forth? |
| 26 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData for as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also the faith apart from the works is dead. |
