My brethren, show no partiality as you hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory. | Warning against Partiality Jas.2.1-13 | Ἀδελφοί μου, μὴ ἐν προσωπολημψίαις ἐχετε τὴν πίστιν τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ τῆς δόξης. |
| 2 |
For if a man with gold rings and in fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a poor man in shabby clothing also comes in, | | ἐὰν γὰρ εἰσέλθῃ εἰς συναγωγὴν ὑμῶν ἀνὴρ χρυσοδακτύλιος ἐν ἐσθῆτι λαμπρᾷ, εἰσέλθῃ δὲ καὶ πτωχὸς ἐν ῥυπαρᾷ ἐσθῆτι, |
| 3 |
and you pay attention to the one who wears the fine clothing and say, "Have a seat here, please," while you say to the poor man, "Stand there," or, "Sit at my feet," | | ἐπιβλέψητε δὲ ἐπὶ τὸν φοροῦντα τὴν ἐσθῆτα τὴν λαμπρὰν καὶ εἰπητε, σὺ κάθου ὧδε καλῶς, καὶ τῷ πτωχῷ εἰπητε, σὺ στῆθι ἐκεῖ ἢ κάθου ὑπὸ τὸ ὑποπόδιόν μου, |
| 4 |
have you not made distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts? | | οὐ διεκρίθητε ἐν ἑαυτοῖς καὶ ἐγένεσθε κριταὶ διαλογισμῶν πονηρῶν; |
| 5 |
Listen, my beloved brethren. Has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to those who love him? | | Ἀκούσατε, ἀδελφοί μου ἀγαπητοί. οὐχ ὁ θεὸς ἐξελέξατο τοὺς πτωχοὺς τῷ κόσμῳ πλουσίους ἐν πίστει καὶ κληρονόμους τῆς βασιλείας ἧς ἐπηγγείλατο τοῖς ἀγαπῶσιν αὐτόν; |
| 6 |
But you have dishonoured the poor man. Is it not the rich who oppress you, is it not they who drag you into court? | | ὑμεῖς δὲ ἠτιμάσατε τὸν πτωχόν. οὐχ οἱ πλούσιοι καταδυναστεύουσιν ὑμῶν, καὶ αὐτοὶ ἑλκουσιν ὑμᾶς εἰς κριτήριὰ; |
| 7 |
Is it not they who blaspheme that honourable name which was invoked over you? | | οὐκ αὐτοὶ βλασφημοῦσιν τὸ καλὸν ὀνομα τὸ ἐπικληθὲν ἐφ' ὑμᾶς; |
| 8 |
If you really fulfil the royal law, according to the scripture, "You shall love your neighbour as yourself," you do well. | - You shall love your neighbour as yourself Jas.2.8 | Lv.19.18 | εἰ μέντοι νόμον τελεῖτε βασιλικὸν κατὰ τὴν γραφήν, Ἀγαπήσεις τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς σεαυτόν, καλῶς ποιεῖτε· |
| 9 |
But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors. | | εἰ δὲ προσωπολημπτεῖτε, ἀμαρτίαν ἐργάζεσθε, ἐλεγχόμενοι ὑπὸ τοῦ νόμου ὡς παραβάται. |
| 10 |
For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it. | | ὁστις γὰρ ὁλον τὸν νόμον τηρήσῃ, πταίσῃ δὲ ἐν ἑνί, γέγονεν πάντων ἐνοχος. |
| 11 |
For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," said also, "Do not kill." If you do not commit adultery but do kill, you have become a transgressor of the law. | - The commandments Jas.2.11 | Ex.20.14 | Dt.5.17 | ὁ γὰρ εἰπών, Mὴ μοιχεύσῃς, εἶπεν καί, Mὴ φονεύσῃς· εἰ δὲ οὐ μοιχεύεις, φονεύεις δέ, γέγονας παραβάτης νόμου. |
| 12 |
So speak and so act as those who are to be judged under the law of liberty. | | οὑτως λαλεῖτε καὶ οὑτως ποιεῖτε ὡς διὰ νόμου ἐλευθερίας μέλλοντες κρίνεσθαι. |
| 13 |
For judgment is without mercy to one who has shown no mercy; yet mercy triumphs over judgment. | | ἡ γὰρ κρίσις ἀνέλεος τῷ μὴ ποιήσαντι ἐλεος· κατακαυχᾶται ἐλεος κρίσεως. |
| 14 |
What does it profit, my brethren, if a man says he has faith but has not works? Can his faith save him? | Faith and Works Jas.2.14-26 | Τί τὸ ὀφελος, ἀδελφοί μου, ἐὰν πίστιν λέγῃ τις ἐχειν, ἐργα δὲ μὴ ἐχῃ; μὴ δύναται ἡ πίστις σῶσαι αὐτόν; |
| 15 |
If a brother or sister is ill-clad and in lack of daily food, | | ἐὰν ἀδελφὸς ἢ ἀδελφὴ γυμνοὶ ὑπάρχωσιν καὶ λειπόμενοι τῆς ἐφημέρου τροφῆς, |
| 16 |
and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled," without giving them the things needed for the body, what does it profit? | | εἰπῃ δέ τις αὐτοῖς ἐξ ὑμῶν, Ὑπάγετε ἐν εἰρήνῃ, θερμαίνεσθε καὶ χορτάζεσθε, μὴ δῶτε δὲ αὐτοῖς τὰ ἐπιτήδεια τοῦ σώματος, τί τὸ ὀφελος; |
| 17 |
So faith by itself, if it has no works, is dead. | | οὑτως καὶ ἡ πίστις, ἐὰν μὴ ἐχῃ ἐργα, νεκρά ἐστιν καθ' ἑαυτήν. |
| 18 |
But some one will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith apart from your works, and I by my works will show you my faith. | | Ἀλλ' ἐρεῖ τις, Σὺ πίστιν ἐχεις κἀγὼ ἐργα ἐχω. δεῖξόν μοι τὴν πίστιν σου χωρὶς τῶν ἐργων, κἀγώ σοι δείξω ἐκ τῶν ἐργων μου τὴν πίστιν. |
| 19 |
You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe - and shudder. | | σὺ πιστεύεις ὅτι εἷς ἐστιν ὁ θεός; καλῶς ποιεῖς· καὶ τὰ δαιμόνια πιστεύουσιν καὶ φρίσσουσιν. |
| 20 |
Do you want to be shown, you shallow man, that faith apart from works is barren? | | θέλεις δὲ γνῶναι, ὦ ἄνθρωπε κενέ, ὅτι ἡ πίστις χωρὶς τῶν ἐργων ἀργή ἐστιν; |
| 21 |
Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he offered his son Isaac upon the altar? | | Ἀβραὰμ ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν οὐκ ἐξ ἐργων ἐδικαιώθη, ἀνενέγκας Ἰσαὰκ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον; |
| 22 |
You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by works, | | βλέπεις ὅτι ἡ πίστις συνήργει τοῖς ἐργοις αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἐργων ἡ πίστις ἐτελειώθη, |
| 23 |
and the scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness"; and he was called the friend of God. | - Abraham believed God Jas.2.23 | Gn.15.6 | καὶ ἐπληρώθη ἡ γραφὴ ἡ λέγουσα, Ἐπίστευσεν δὲ Ἀβραὰμ τῷ θεῷ, καὶ ἐλογίσθη αὐτῷ εἰς δικαιοσύνην, καὶ φίλος θεοῦ ἐκλήθη. |
| 24 |
You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone. | | ὁρᾶτε ὅτι ἐξ ἐργων δικαιοῦται ἄνθρωπος καὶ οὐκ ἐκ πίστεως μόνον. |
| 25 |
And in the same way was not also Rahab the harlot justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way? | | ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ Ῥαὰβ ἡ πόρνη οὐκ ἐξ ἐργων ἐδικαιώθη, ὑποδεξαμένη τοὺς ἀγγέλους καὶ ἑτέρᾳ ὁδῷ ἐκβαλοῦσὰ; |
| 26 |
For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so faith apart from works is dead. | | ὡσπερ γὰρ τὸ σῶμα χωρὶς πνεύματος νεκρόν ἐστιν, οὑτως καὶ ἡ πίστις χωρὶς ἐργων νεκρά ἐστιν. |
