NSB(i)
2 A man wearing a gold ring and fine clothes and a poor man in shabby clothes comes into your synagogue.
3 You pay special attention to the one wearing the fine clothes, and say: »Sit here in a good place.« Then you say to the poor man: »Stand there,« or »Sit under my footstool.«
4 Do not make distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts.
5 Listen, my dearly beloved brothers! Did God choose poor people in the world to be rich in faith and to receive the kingdom he promised to those who love him?
6 You have dishonored the poor man. Do the rich oppress you, and personally drag you into court?
7 Do they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?
8 When you fulfill the royal law according to the scripture: »You shall love your neighbor as yourself,« you do well.
9 But when you show partiality you commit sin. The law then convicts you as transgressors.
