Do not be led astray, my dear brothers and sisters.

If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacks daily food,

My brothers and sisters, consider it nothing but joy when you fall into all sorts of trials,

My brothers and sisters, do not show prejudice if you possess faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ.

From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. These things should not be so, my brothers and sisters.

My brothers and sisters, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and someone turns him back,

Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters! Let every person be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger.

Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers and sisters, because you know that we will be judged more strictly.

Can a fig tree produce olives, my brothers and sisters, or a vine produce figs? Neither can a salt water spring produce fresh water.

Do not grumble against one another, brothers and sisters, so that you may not be judged. See, the judge stands before the gates!

What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but does not have works? Can this kind of faith save him?

As an example of suffering and patience, brothers and sisters, take the prophets who spoke in the Lord’s name.

Do not speak against one another, brothers and sisters. He who speaks against a fellow believer or judges a fellow believer speaks against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but its judge.

Listen, my dear brothers and sisters! Did not God choose the poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom that he promised to those who love him?

So be patient, brothers and sisters, until the Lord’s return. Think of how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the ground and is patient for it until it receives the early and late rains.

And above all, my brothers and sisters, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or by any other oath. But let your “Yes” be yes and your “No” be no, so that you may not fall into judgment.

Now the believer of humble means should take pride in his high position.
