James 2:1-5

Worrell(i) 1 My brethren, hold not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ the Lord of glory, with respect of persons. 2 For, if there come into your synagogue a man with a gold ring, in splendid apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile apparel; 3 and ye show regard to him who is wearing the splendid apparel, and say, "Sit here in a good place"; and say to the poor man, "Stand, or sit under my footstool"; 4 do ye not make a distinction among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts? 5 Hearken, my beloved brethren, did not God choose the poor of the world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he promised to those who love Him?
