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? |
2:7 | 他們不是褻瀆你們所敬奉的尊名麼〔所敬奉或作被稱〕。 |
2:7 | 他们不是亵渎你们所敬奉的尊名麽(所敬奉或作被称)。 |
isa:63:19 | We are thine: thou never barest rule over them; they were not called by thy name. |
isa:65:1 | I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name. |
amo:9:12 | That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the heathen, which are called by my name, saith the LORD that doeth this. |
act:15:17 | That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things. |

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