Berean Standard Bible
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1My brothers, as you hold out your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ, do not show favoritism.
1我的弟兄们，你们信奉我们荣耀的主耶稣基督，便不可按着外貌待人。
2Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes, and a poor man in shabby clothes also comes in.
2若有一个人带着金戒指，穿着华美衣服，进你们的会堂去；又有一个穷人穿着肮脏衣服也进去；
3If you lavish attention on the man in fine clothes and say, “Here is a seat of honor,” but say to the poor man, “You must stand” or “Sit at my feet,”
3你们就重看那穿华美衣服的人，说：「请坐在这好位上」；又对那穷人说：「你站在那里」，或「坐在我脚凳下边。」
4have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?
4这岂不是你们偏心待人，用恶意断定人吗？
5Listen, my beloved brothers: Has not God chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom He promised those who love Him?
5我亲爱的弟兄们，请听， 神岂不是拣选了世上的贫穷人，叫他们在信上富足，并承受他所应许给那些爱他之人的国吗？
6But you have dishonored the poor. Is it not the rich who oppress you and drag you into court?
6你们反倒羞辱贫穷人。那富足人岂不是欺压你们、拉你们到公堂去吗？
7Are they not the ones who blaspheme the noble name by which you have been called?
7他们不是亵渎你们所敬奉的尊名吗？
8If you really fulfill the royal law stated in Scripture, “Love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing well.
8经上记着说：「要爱人如己。」你们若全守这至尊的律法才是好的。
9But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
9但你们若按外貌待人，便是犯罪，被律法定为犯法的。
10Whoever keeps the whole law but stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.
10因为凡遵守全律法的，只在一条上跌倒，他就是犯了众条。
11For He who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not murder.” If you do not commit adultery, but do commit murder, you have become a lawbreaker.
11原来那说「不可奸淫」的，也说「不可杀人」；你就是不奸淫，却杀人，仍是成了犯律法的。
12Speak and act as those who are going to be judged by the law that gives freedom.
12你们既然要按 使人 自由的律法受审判，就该照这律法说话行事。
13For judgment without mercy will be shown to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
13因为那不怜悯人的，也要受无怜悯的审判；怜悯原是向审判夸胜。
14What good is it, my brothers, if someone claims to have faith, but has no deeds? Can such faith save him?
14我的弟兄们，若有人说自己有信心，却没有行为，有什么益处呢？这信心能救他吗？
15Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food.
15若是弟兄或是姊妹，赤身露体，又缺了日用的饮食；
16If one of you tells him, “Go in peace; stay warm and well fed,” but does not provide for his physical needs, what good is that?
16你们中间有人对他们说：「平平安安地去吧！愿你们穿得暖，吃得饱」，却不给他们身体所需用的，这有什么益处呢？
17So too, faith by itself, if it does not result in action, is dead.
17这样，信心若没有行为就是死的。
18But someone will say, “You have faith and I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.
18必有人说：「你有信心，我有行为；你将你没有行为的信心指给我看，我便借着我的行为，将我的信心指给你看。」
19You believe that God is one. Good for you! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.
19你信 神只有一位，你信的不错；鬼魔也信，却是战惊。
20O foolish man, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is worthless?
20虚浮的人哪，你愿意知道没有行为的信心是死的吗？
21Was not our father Abraham justified by what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar?
21我们的祖宗 亚伯拉罕 把他儿子 以撒 献在坛上，岂不是因行为称义吗？
22You see that his faith was working with his actions, and his faith was perfected by what he did.
22可见，信心是与他的行为并行，而且信心因着行为才得成全。
23And the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called a friend of God.
23这就应验经上所说：「 亚伯拉罕 信 神，这就算为他的义。」他又得称为 神的朋友。
24As you can see, a man is justified by his deeds and not by faith alone.
24这样看来，人称义是因着行为，不是单因着信。
25In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute justified by her actions when she welcomed the spies and sent them off on another route?
25妓女 喇合 接待使者，又放他们从别的路上出去，不也是一样因行为称义吗？
26As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.
26身体没有灵魂是死的，信心没有行为也是死的。
