James 2
13 Ref for the judgment without kindness `is' to him not having done kindness, and exult doth kindness over judgment.
14 Ref What `is' the profit, my brethren, if faith, any one may speak of having, and works he may not have? is that faith able to save him?
15 Ref and if a brother or sister may be naked, and may be destitute of the daily food,
16 Ref and any one of you may say to them, `Depart ye in peace, be warmed, and be filled,' and may not give to them the things needful for the body, what `is' the profit?
17 Ref so also the faith, if it may not have works, is dead by itself.
18 Ref But say may some one, Thou hast faith, and I have works, shew me thy faith out of thy works, and I will shew thee out of my works my faith:
19 Ref thou -- thou dost believe that God is one; thou dost well, and the demons believe, and they shudder!
20 Ref And dost thou wish to know, O vain man, that the faith apart from the works is dead?
21 Ref Abraham our father -- was not he declared righteous out of works, having brought up Isaac his son upon the altar?
22 Ref dost thou see that the faith was working with his works, and out of the works the faith was perfected?
23 Ref and fulfilled was the Writing that is saying, `And Abraham did believe God, and it was reckoned to him -- to righteousness;' and, `Friend of God' he was called.
