James 2:9-11

2:9 But if you show prejudice, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as violators. ¹  2:10 For the one who obeys the whole law but fails ²  in one point has become guilty of all of it. ³  2:11 For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” ⁴  also said, “Do not murder.” ⁵  Now if you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a violator of the law.
