James 2
1 brother me not in/on/among favoritism to have/be the/this/who faith the/this/who lord: God me Jesus Christ the/this/who glory
My brothers, don’t hold the faith of our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with partiality.
2 if for to enter toward (the/this/who *k*) synagogue you man gold-ringed in/on/among clothing shining to enter then and poor in/on/among filthy clothing
For if a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your synagogue, and a poor man in filthy clothing also comes in,
3 (and *ko*) to look upon/at (then *no*) upon/to/against the/this/who to wear the/this/who clothing the/this/who shining and to say (it/s/he *k*) you to sit here well and the/this/who poor to say you to stand there or to sit (here *k*) by/under: by the/this/who footstool me
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”
4 (and *ko*) no to judge/doubt in/on/among themself and to be judge reasoning evil/bad
haven’t you shown partiality amongst yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
5 to hear brother me beloved no the/this/who God to select the/this/who poor (the/this/who world *N(k)O*) (this/he/she/it *k*) rich in/on/among faith and heir the/this/who kingdom which to profess the/this/who to love it/s/he
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?
6 you then to dishonor the/this/who poor no the/this/who rich to oppress you and it/s/he to draw/persuade you toward court/lawsuit
But you have dishonoured the poor man. Don’t the rich oppress you and personally drag you before the courts?
7 no it/s/he to blaspheme the/this/who good name the/this/who to call (on)/name upon/to/against you
Don’t they blaspheme the honourable name by which you are called?
8 if yet law to finish royal according to the/this/who a writing to love the/this/who near/neighbor you as/when you well to do/make: do
However, if you fulfil the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbour as yourself,” you do well.
9 if then to favor sin to work to rebuke by/under: by the/this/who law as/when transgresor
But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.
10 who/which for all the/this/who law (to keep: observe to stumble *N(k)O*) then in/on/among one to be all liable for
For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.
11 the/this/who for to say not (to commit adultery *NK(o)*) to say and not (to murder *NK(o)*) if then no (to commit adultery to murder *N(k)O*) then to be transgresor law
For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not commit murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery but do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.
12 thus(-ly) to speak and thus(-ly) to do/make: do as/when through/because of law freedom to ensue to judge
So speak and so do as men who are to be judged by the law of freedom.
13 the/this/who for judgment merciless the/this/who not to do/make: do mercy (and *k*) (to boast mercy *NK(o)*) judgment
For judgement is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgement.
14 which? the/this/who gain brother me if faith to say one to have/be work then not to have/be not be able the/this/who faith to save it/s/he
What good is it, my brothers, if a man says he has faith, but has no works? Can faith save him?
15 if (then *k*) brother or sister naked be already and to lack (to be *ko*) the/this/who daily food
And if a brother or sister is naked and in lack of daily food,
16 to say then one it/s/he out from you to go in/on/among peace to warm and to feed not to give then it/s/he the/this/who necessary the/this/who body which? the/this/who gain
and one of you tells them, “Go in peace. Be warmed and filled;” yet you didn’t give them the things the body needs, what good is it?
17 thus(-ly) and the/this/who faith if not to have/be work dead to be according to themself
Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.
18 but to say one you faith to have/be I/we and work to have/be to show me the/this/who faith you (without *N(k)O*) the/this/who work (you *k*) I/we and you to show out from the/this/who work me the/this/who faith (me *k*)
Yes, a man will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without works, and I will show you my faith by my works.
19 you to trust (in) that/since: that one to be the/this/who God well to do/make: do and the/this/who demon to trust (in) and to shudder
You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe—and shudder.
20 to will/desire then to know oh! a human empty that/since: that the/this/who faith without the/this/who work (idle *N(K)O*) to be
But do you want to know, vain man, that faith apart from works is dead?
21 Abraham the/this/who father me no out from work to justify to carry up Isaac the/this/who son it/s/he upon/to/against the/this/who altar
Wasn’t Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?
22 to see that/since: that the/this/who faith to work with the/this/who work it/s/he and out from the/this/who work the/this/who faith to perfect
You see that faith worked with his works, and by works faith was perfected.
23 and to fulfill the/this/who a writing the/this/who to say to trust (in) then Abraham the/this/who God and to count it/s/he toward righteousness and friendly/friend God to call: call
So 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.
24 to see: see (then *K*) that/since: that out from work to justify a human and no out from faith alone
You see then that by works a man is justified, and not only by faith.
25 similarly then and Rahab the/this/who prostitute no out from work to justify to receive the/this/who angel: messenger and other road to expel
In the same way, wasn’t Rahab the prostitute also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?
26 just as for the/this/who body without spirit/breath: spirit dead to be thus(-ly) and the/this/who faith without (the/this/who *ko*) work dead to be
For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is dead.
