^{16 Ref} and one of you tells them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled;" and yet you didn't give them the things the body needs, what good is it?

^{17 Ref} Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.

^{18 Ref} Yes, a man will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith from your works, and I by my works will show you my faith.

^{15 Ref} If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,

^{16 Ref} And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?

^{17 Ref} Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.

^{18 Ref} Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
