2:1 | My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons. |
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; |
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: |
2:4 | Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts? |
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? |
2:6 | But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats? |
2:7 | Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called? |
2:8 | If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: |
2:9 | But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. |
2:10 | For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. |
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. |
2:12 | So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty. |
2:13 | For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment. |
2:14 | What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? |
2:15 | If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, |
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? |
2:17 | Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. |
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. |
2:19 | Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. |
2:20 | But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? |
2:21 | Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? |
2:22 | Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? |
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. |
2:24 | Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. |
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? |
2:25 | 妓女喇合接待使者、又放他們從別的路上出去、不也是一樣因行為稱義麼。 |
2:25 | 妓女喇合接待使者,又放他们从别的路出去,不也是一样因行为称义麽。 |
jos:2:1 | And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim two men to spy secretly, saying, Go view the land, even Jericho. And they went, and came into an harlot's house, named Rahab, and lodged there. |
jos:2:3 | And the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab, saying, Bring forth the men that are come to thee, which are entered into thine house: for they be come to search out all the country. |
jos:2:4 | And the woman took the two men, and hid them, and said thus, There came men unto me, but I wist not whence they were: |
jos:2:5 | And it came to pass about the time of shutting of the gate, when it was dark, that the men went out: whither the men went I wot not: pursue after them quickly; for ye shall overtake them. |
jos:2:15 | Then she let them down by a cord through the window: for her house was upon the town wall, and she dwelt upon the wall. |
jos:6:23 | And the young men that were spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them without the camp of Israel. |
heb:11:31 | By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace. |

2:26 | For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. |
