James 2:5-26

2:5

Hearken
<191> (5657)_,

my
<3450>

beloved
<27>

brethren
<80>_,

Hath
<1586> (0)

not
<3756>

God
<2316>

chosen
<1586> (5668)

the poor
<4434>

of this
<5127>

world
<2889>

rich
<4145>

in
<1722>

faith
<4102>_,

and
<2532>

heirs
<2818>

of the kingdom
<932>

which
<3739>

he hath promised
<1861> (5662)

to them that love
<25> (5723)

him
<846>_?

{of the: or, of that}

2:6

But
<1161>

ye
<5210>

have despised
<818> (5656)

the poor
<4434>_.

Do
<2616> (0)

not
<3756>

rich men
<4145>

oppress
<2616> (5719)

you
<5216>_,

and
<2532>

draw
<846> <1670> (5719)

you
<5209>

before
<1519>

the judgment seats
<2922>_?

2:7

Do
<987> (0)

not
<3756>

they
<846>

blaspheme
<987> (5719)

that worthy
<2570>

name
<3686>

by
<1909>

the which ye
<5209>

are called
<1941> (5685)_?

{blaspheme: or, revile, or, slander}

2:8

If
<1487> <3305>

ye fulfil
<5055> (5719)

the royal
<937>

law
<3551>

according to
<2596>

the scripture
<1124>_,

Thou shalt love
<25> (5692)

thy
<4675>

neighbour
<4139>

as
<5613>

thyself
<4572>_,

ye do
<4160> (5719)

well
<2573>_:

2:9

But
<1161>

if
<1487>

ye have respect to persons
<4380> (5719)_,

ye commit
<2038> (5736)

sin
<266>_,

and are convinced
<1651> (5746)

of
<5259>

the law
<3551>

as
<5613>

transgressors
<3848>_.

2:10

For
<1063>

whosoever
<3748>

shall keep
<5083> (5692)

the whole
<3650>

law
<3551>_,

and yet
<1161>

offend
<4417> (5692)

in
<1722>

one
<1520>

[point], he is
<1096> (5754)

guilty
<1777>

of all
<3956>_.

2:11

For
<1063>

he that said
<2036> (5631)_,

Do
<3431> (0)

not
<3361>

commit adultery
<3431> (5661)_,

said
<2036> (5627)

also
<2532>_,

Do
<5407> (0)

not
<3361>

kill
<5407> (5661)_.

Now
<1161>

if
<1487>

thou commit
<3431> (0)

no
<3756>

adultery
<3431> (5692)_,

yet if
<1161>

thou kill
<5407> (5692)_,

thou art become
<1096> (5754)

a transgressor
<3848>

of the law
<3551>_.

{he that: or, that law which}

2:12

So
<3779>

speak ye
<2980> (5720)_,

and
<2532>

so
<3779>

do
<4160> (5720)_,

as
<5613>

they that shall be
<3195> (5723)

judged
<2919> (5745)

by
<1223>

the law
<3551>

of liberty
<1657>_.

2:13

For
<1063>

he shall have judgment
<2920>

without mercy
<448>_,

that hath shewed
<4160> (5660)

no
<3361>

mercy
<1656>_;

and
<2532>

mercy
<1656>

rejoiceth against
<2620> (5736)

judgment
<2920>_.

{rejoiceth: or, glorieth}

2:14

What
<5101>

[doth it] profit
<3786>_,

my
<3450>

brethren
<80>_,

though
<1437>

a man
<5100>

say
<3004> (5725)

he hath
<2192> (5721)

faith
<4102>_,

and
<1161>

have
<2192> (5725)

not
<3361>

works
<2041>_?

can
<1410> (5736) <3361>

faith
<4102>

save
<4982> (5658)

him
<846>_?

2:15

If
<1437> <1161>

a brother
<80>

or
<2228>

sister
<79>

be
<5225> (5725)

naked
<1131>_,

and
<2532>

destitute
<3007> (5746) <5600> (5753)

of daily
<2184>

food
<5160>_,

2:16

And
<1161>

one
<5100>

of
<1537>

you
<5216>

say
<2036> (5632)

unto them
<846>_,

Depart
<5217> (5720)

in
<1722>

peace
<1515>_,

be [ye] warmed
<2328> (5728)

and
<2532>

filled
<5526> (5744)_;

notwithstanding
<1161>

ye give
<1325> (5632)

them
<846>

not
<3361>

those things which are needful
<2006>

to the body
<4983>_;

what
<5101>

[doth it] profit
<3786>_?

2:17

Even
<2532>

so
<3779>

faith
<4102>_,

if
<3362> (0)

it hath
<2192> (5725)

not
<3362>

works
<2041>_,

is
<2076> (5748)

dead
<3498>_,

being alone
<2596> <1438>_.

{alone: Gr. by itself}

2:18

Yea
<235>_,

a man
<5100>

may say
<2046> (5692)_,

Thou
<4771>

hast
<2192> (5719)

faith
<4102>_,

and I
<2504>

have
<2192> (5719)

works
<2041>_:

shew
<1166> (5657)

me
<3427>

thy
<4675>

faith
<4102>

without
<1537>

thy
<4675>

works
<2041>_,

and I
<2504>

will shew
<1166> (5692)

thee
<4671>

my
<3450>

faith
<4102>

by
<1537>

my
<3450>

works
<2041>_.

{without: some copies read, by}

2:19

Thou
<4771>

believest
<4100> (5719)

that
<3754>

there is
<2076> (5748)

one
<1520>

God
<2316>_;

thou doest
<4160> (5719)

well
<2573>_:

the devils
<1140>

also
<2532>

believe
<4100> (5719)_,

and
<2532>

tremble
<5425> (5719)_.

2:20

But
<1161>

wilt
<2309> (5719)

thou know
<1097> (5629)_,

O
<5599>

vain
<2756>

man
<444>_,

that
<3754>

faith
<4102>

without
<5565>

works
<2041>

is
<2076> (5748)

dead
<3498>_?

2:21

Was
<1344> (0)

not
<3756>

Abraham
<11>

our
<2257>

father
<3962>

justified
<1344> (5681)

by
<1537>

works
<2041>_,

when he had offered
<399> (5660)

Isaac
<2464>

his
<846>

son
<5207>

upon
<1909>

the altar
<2379>_?

2:22

Seest thou
<991> (5719)

how
<3754>

faith
<4102>

wrought
<4903> (5707)

with his
<846>

works
<2041>_,

and
<2532>

by
<1537>

works
<2041>

was
<5048> (0)

faith
<4102>

made perfect
<5048> (5681)_?

{Seest...: or, Thou seest}

2:23

And
<2532>

the scripture
<1124>

was fulfilled
<4137> (5681)

which saith
<3004> (5723)_,

<1161>

Abraham
<11>

believed
<4100> (5656)

God
<2316>_,

and
<2532>

it was imputed
<3049> (5681)

unto him
<846>

for
<1519>

righteousness
<1343>_:

and
<2532>

he was called
<2564> (5681)

the Friend
<5384>

of God
<2316>_.

2:24

Ye see
<3708> (5719) (5720)

then
<5106>

how that
<3754>

by
<1537>

works
<2041>

a man
<444>

is justified
<1344> (5743)_,

and
<2532>

not
<3756>

by
<1537>

faith
<4102>

only
<3440>_.

2:25

Likewise
<3668> <1161>

also
<2532>

was
<1344> (0)

not
<3756>

Rahab
<4460>

the harlot
<4204>

justified
<1344> (5681)

by
<1537>

works
<2041>_,

when she had received
<5264> (5666)

the messengers
<32>_,

and
<2532>

had sent [them] out
<1544> (5631)

another
<2087>

way
<3598>_?

2:26

For
<1063>

as
<5618>

the body
<4983>

without
<5565>

the spirit
<4151>

is
<2076> (5748)

dead
<3498>_,

so
<3779>

faith
<4102>

without
<5565>

works
<2041>

is
<2076> (5748)

dead
<3498>

also
<2532>_.

{spirit: or, breath}
