⁴² for I did hunger, and ye gave me not to eat; I did thirst, and ye gave me not to drink;

²⁰ if any one may say -- `I love God,' and his brother he may hate, a liar he is; for he who is not loving his brother whom he hath seen, God -- whom he hath not seen -- how is he able to love?

¹⁴ we -- we have known that we have passed out of the death to the life, because we love the brethren; he who is not loving the brother doth remain in the death.

¹⁵ Every one who is hating his brother -- a man-killer he is, and ye have known that no man-killer hath life age-during in him remaining,

¹⁶ in this we have known the love, because he for us his life did lay down, and we ought for the brethren the lives to lay down;

¹⁷ and whoever may have the goods of the world, and may view his brother having need, and may shut up his bowels from him -- how doth the love of God remain in him?

¹⁵ and if a brother or sister may be naked, and may be destitute of the daily food,

¹⁶ 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 so also the faith, if it may not have works, is dead by itself.

¹⁸ 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 thou -- thou dost believe that God is one; thou dost well, and the demons believe, and they shudder!

²⁰ And dost thou wish to know, O vain man, that the faith apart from the works is dead?

²¹ Abraham our father -- was not he declared righteous out of works, having brought up Isaac his son upon the altar?

²² dost thou see that the faith was working with his works, and out of the works the faith was perfected?

²³ 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.

²⁴ Ye see, then, that out of works is man declared righteous, and not out of faith only;

⁸ in flaming fire, giving vengeance to those not knowing God, and to those not obeying the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ;

²² if any one doth not love the Lord Jesus Christ -- let him be anathema! The Lord hath come!

²¹ he who is having my commands, and is keeping them, that one it is who is loving me, and he who is loving me shall be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.'

²³ that all may honour the Son according as they honour the Father; he who is not honouring the Son, doth not honour the Father who sent him.

³⁵ for I did hunger, and ye gave me to eat; I did thirst, and ye gave me to drink; I was a stranger, and ye received me;

³⁰ `He who is not with me is against me, and he who is not gathering with me, doth scatter.

³⁷ `He who is loving father or mother above me, is not worthy of me, and he who is loving son or daughter above me, is not worthy of me,

³⁸ and whoever doth not receive his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.

⁶ Who are drinking with bowls of wine, And `with' chief perfumes anoint `themselves', And have not been pained for the breach of Joseph.

⁴² Jesus then said to them, `If God were your father, ye were loving me, for I came forth from God, and am come; for neither have I come of myself, but He sent me;

⁴³ wherefore do ye not know my speech? because ye are not able to hear my word.

⁴⁴ `Ye are of a father -- the devil, and the desires of your father ye will to do; he was a man-slayer from the beginning, and in the truth he hath not stood, because there is no truth in him; when one may speak the falsehood, of his own he speaketh, because he is a liar -- also his father.
