| James 2:2 | for if there may come into your synagogue a man with gold ring, in gay raiment, and there may come in also a poor man in vile raiment, | for if there come unto your synagogue a man with a gold ring in splendid apparel, and a poor man also come in in vile apparel, | For if a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your assembly, and there come in also a poor man in filthy clothing; |
| James 2:3 | and ye may look upon him bearing the gay raiment, and may say to him, `Thou sit thou here well,` and to the poor man may say, `Thou stand thou there, or, Sit thou here under my footstool,` | and ye look upon him who wears the splendid apparel, and say, Do thou sit here well, and say to the poor, Do thou stand there, or sit here under my footstool: | and you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing, and say, "Sit here in a good place;" and you tell the poor man, "Stand there," or "Sit by my footstool;" |
| James 2:4 | ye did not judge fully in yourselves, and did become ill-reasoning judges. | have ye not made a difference among yourselves, and become judges having evil thoughts? | haven't you shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts? |
| James 2:5 | Hearken, my brethren beloved, did not God choose the poor of this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the reign that He promised to those loving Him? | Hear, my beloved brethren: Has not God chosen the poor as to the world, rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom, which he has promised to them that love him? | Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn't God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he promised to those who love him? |
| James 2:6 | and ye did dishonour the poor one; do not the rich oppress you and themselves draw you to judgment-seats; | But *ye* have despised the poor [man]. Do not the rich oppress you, and [do not] *they* drag you before [the] tribunals? | But you have dishonored the poor man. Don't the rich oppress you, and personally drag you before the courts? |
| James 2:7 | do they not themselves speak evil of the good name that was called upon you? | And [do not] *they* blaspheme the excellent name which has been called upon you? | Don't they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called? |
| James 2:8 | If, indeed, royal law ye complete, according to the Writing, `Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself,` ye do well; | If indeed ye keep [the] royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well. | However, if you fulfill the royal law, according to the Scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself," you do well. |
| James 2:9 | and if ye accept persons, sin ye do work, being convicted by the law as transgressors; | But if ye have respect of persons, ye commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors. | But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors. |
| James 2:10 | for whoever the whole law shall keep, and shall stumble in one [point], he hath become guilty of all; | For whoever shall keep the whole law and shall offend in one [point], he has come under the guilt of [breaking] all. | For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he has become guilty of all. |
| James 2:11 | for He who is saying, `Thou mayest not commit adultery,` said also, `Thou mayest do no murder;` and if thou shalt not commit adultery, and shalt commit murder, thou hast become a transgressor of law; | For he who said, Thou shalt not commit adultery, said also, Thou shalt not kill. Now if thou dost not commit adultery, but killest, thou art become transgressor of [the] law. | For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," said also, "Do not commit murder." Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder, you have become a transgressor of the law. |
| James 2:12 | so speak ye and so do, as about by a law of liberty to be judged, | So speak ye, and so act, as those that are to be judged by [the] law of liberty; | So speak, and so do, as men who are to be judged by a law of freedom. |
| James 2:13 | for the judgment without kindness [is] to him not having done kindness, and exult doth kindness over judgment. | for judgment [will be] without mercy to him that has shewn no mercy. Mercy glories over judgment. | For judgment is without mercy to him who has showed no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment. |
| James 2:14 | 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? | What [is] the profit, my brethren, if any one say he have faith, but have not works? can faith save him? | What good is it, my brothers, if a man says he has faith, but has no works? Can that faith save him? |
| James 2:15 | and if a brother or sister may be naked, and may be destitute of the daily food, | Now if a brother or a sister is naked and destitute of daily food, | And if a brother or sister is naked and in lack of daily food, |
| James 2:16 | 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? | and one from amongst you say to them, Go in peace, be warmed and filled; but give not to them the needful things for the body, what [is] the profit? | 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? |
| James 2:17 | so also the faith, if it may not have works, is dead by itself. | So also faith, if it have not works, is dead by itself. | Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself. |
| James 2:18 | 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: | But some one will say, *Thou* hast faith and *I* have works. Shew me thy faith without works, and *I* from my works will shew thee my faith. | Yes, a man will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without your works, and I by my works will show you my faith. |
| James 2:19 | thou thou dost believe that God is one; thou dost well, and the demons believe, and they shudder! | *Thou* believest that God is one. Thou doest well. The demons even believe, and tremble. | You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe, and shudder. |
| James 2:20 | And dost thou wish to know, O vain man, that the faith apart from the works is dead? | But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? | But do you want to know, vain man, that faith apart from works is dead? |
| James 2:21 | Abraham our father was not he declared righteous out of works, having brought up Isaac his son upon the altar? | Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? | Wasn't Abraham, our father, justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son on the altar? |
| James 2:22 | dost thou see that the faith was working with his works, and out of the works the faith was perfected? | Thou seest that faith wrought with his works, and that by works faith was perfected. | You see that faith worked with his works, and by works faith was perfected; |
| James 2:23 | 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. | And the scripture was fulfilled which says, Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness, and he was called Friend of God. | and the scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness;" and he was called the friend of God. |
| James 2:24 | Ye see, then, that out of works is man declared righteous, and not out of faith only; | Ye see that a man is justified on the principle of works, and not on the principle of faith only. | You see then that by works, a man is justified, and not only by faith. |
| James 2:25 | and in like manner also Rahab the harlot was she not out of works declared righteous, having received the messengers, and by another way having sent forth? | But was not in like manner also Rahab the harlot justified on the principle of works, when she had received the messengers and put [them] forth by another way? | In like manner wasn't Rahab the prostitute also justified by works, in that she received the messengers, and sent them out another way? |
| James 2:26 | for as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also the faith apart from the works is dead. | For as the body without a spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead. | For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is dead. |
