¹ JUDGE not, that ye be not judged. ² For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you. ³ And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye? ⁴ Or how wilt thou say to thy brother: Let me cast out the mote from thine eye; and behold, the beam is in thine own eye? ⁵ Hypocrite! first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then thou wilt see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

³² and be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, as also God in Christ forgave you.

¹ MY brethren, hold not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, [the Lord] of glory, with respect of persons. ² For if there have come into your assembly a man with a gold ring, in gay clothing, and there have come in also a poor man in mean clothing; ³ and ye have respect to him that wears the gay clothing, and say: Sit thou here in a good place, and say to the poor man: Stand thou there, or, Sit under my footstool; ⁴ were ye not partial in yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts? ⁵ Hearken, my beloved brethren. Did not God choose the poor as to this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he promised to those who love him? ⁶ But ye dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you, and do not they drag you before the judgment-seats? ⁷ Do not they blaspheme the worthy name by which ye are called? ⁸ If indeed ye fulfill the royal law, according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself, ye do well. ⁹ But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors. ¹⁰ For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. ¹¹ For he who said: Do not commit adultery, said also: Do not kill. Now if thou commit not adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law. ¹² So speak, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty. ¹³ For the judgment shall be without mercy, to him that showed no mercy. Mercy glories over judgment. ¹⁴ What does it profit, my brethren, if any one say that he has faith, and have not works?

Thou doest well; the demons also believe, and tremble. ²⁰ But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? ²¹ Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he offered Isaac his son upon the altar? ²² Thou seest that faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made complete. ²³ And the scripture was fulfilled which says: Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him for righteousness; and he was called, Friend of God. ²⁴ Ye see that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. ²⁵ And in like manner, was not also Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she received the messengers, and sent them out by another way? ²⁶ For as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.

¹² One of themselves, a prophet of their own, said: Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons. ¹³ This testimony is true. For which cause reprove them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;
