⁴ The man who says, I have knowledge of him, and does not keep his laws, is false, and there is nothing true in him:

⁶ If we say we are joined to him, and are walking still in the dark, our words are false and our acts are untrue:

⁸ If we say that we have no sin, we are false to ourselves and there is nothing true in us.

¹⁴ What use is it, my brothers, for a man to say that he has faith, if he does nothing? will such a faith give him salvation?

¹⁵ If a brother or a sister is without clothing and in need of the day's food,

¹⁶ And one of you says to them, Go in peace, be warm and full of food; but you do not give them the things of which their bodies have need, what profit is there in this?

¹⁶ They say that they have knowledge of God, while by their acts they are turning their backs on him; they are hated by all, hard-hearted, and judged to be without value for any good work.

⁹ He who says that he is in the light, and has hate in his heart for his brother, is still in the dark.

²⁰ If a man says, I have love for God, and has hate for his brother, his words are false: for how is the man who has no love for his brother whom he has seen, able to have love for God whom he has not seen?

² They will send up to me a cry for help: We, Israel, have knowledge of you, O God of Israel.

³ Israel has given up what is good; his haters will go after him.

¹⁰ If we say that we have no sin, we make him false and his word is not in us.
