James 2:5–13

5 Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God klchosen the poor of this world mrich in faith, and nheirs of ||othe kingdom pwhich he hath promised to qthem that love him? 6 But ye have rdespised the poor. Do not rich men soppress you, and tdraw you ubefore the judgment seats? 7 Do not they vblaspheme that worthy name wby the which ye are called? 8 If ye fulfil xthe royal law according to xxthe scripture, yThou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: 9 But cif ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are zconvinced of the law as transgressors. 10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet aoffend in one point, bhe is cguilty of all. 11 For ||he that said, dDo not commit adultery, said also, dDo not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law. 12 So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by ethe law of liberty. 13 For fhe shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and gmercy ||rejoiceth against judgment.
