King James Version with Apocrypha
Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons.
1αδελφοι μου μη εν προσωποληψιαισ εχετε την πιστιν του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου τησ δοξησ
2For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment;
2εαν γαρ εισελθη εισ την συναγωγην υμων ανηρ χρυσοδακτυλιοσ εν εσθητι λαμπρα εισελθη δε και πτωχοσ εν ρυπαρα εσθητι
3And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool:
3και επιβλεψητε επι τον φορουντα την εσθητα την λαμπραν και ειπητε αυτω συ καθου ωδε καλωσ και τω πτωχω ειπητε συ στηθι εκει η καθου ωδε υπο το υποποδιον μου
4Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?
4και ου διεκριθητε εν εαυτοισ και εγενεσθε κριται διαλογισμων πονηρων
5Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?
5ακουσατε αδελφοι μου αγαπητοι ουχ ο θεοσ εξελεξατο τουσ πτωχουσ του κοσμου πλουσιουσ εν πιστει και κληρονομουσ τησ βασιλειασ ησ επηγγειλατο τοισ αγαπωσιν αυτον
6But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?
6υμεισ δε ητιμασατε τον πτωχον ουχ οι πλουσιοι καταδυναστευουσιν υμων και αυτοι ελκουσιν υμασ εισ κριτηρια
7Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called?
7ουκ αυτοι βλασφημουσιν το καλον ονομα το επικληθεν εφ υμασ
8If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:
8ει μεντοι νομον τελειτε βασιλικον κατα την γραφην αγαπησεισ τον πλησιον σου ωσ σεαυτον καλωσ ποιειτε
9But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.
9ει δε προσωποληπτειτε αμαρτιαν εργαζεσθε ελεγχομενοι υπο του νομου ωσ παραβαται
10For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point , he is guilty of all.
10οστισ γαρ ολον τον νομον τηρησει πταισει δε εν ενι γεγονεν παντων ενοχοσ
11For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
11ο γαρ ειπων μη μοιχευσεισ ειπεν και μη φονευσεισ ει δε ου μοιχευσεισ φονευσεισ δε γεγονασ παραβατησ νομου
12So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
12ουτωσ λαλειτε και ουτωσ ποιειτε ωσ δια νομου ελευθεριασ μελλοντεσ κρινεσθαι
13For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.
13η γαρ κρισισ ανελεοσ τω μη ποιησαντι ελεοσ κατακαυχαται ελεον κρισεωσ
14What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
14τι το οφελοσ αδελφοι μου εαν πιστιν λεγη τισ εχειν εργα δε μη εχη μη δυναται η πιστισ σωσαι αυτον
15If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,
15εαν δε αδελφοσ η αδελφη γυμνοι υπαρχωσιν και λειπομενοι ωσιν τησ εφημερου τροφησ
16And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?
16ειπη δε τισ αυτοισ εξ υμων υπαγετε εν ειρηνη θερμαινεσθε και χορταζεσθε μη δωτε δε αυτοισ τα επιτηδεια του σωματοσ τι το οφελοσ
17Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
17ουτωσ και η πιστισ εαν μη εργα εχη νεκρα εστιν καθ εαυτην
18Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
18αλλ ερει τισ συ πιστιν εχεισ καγω εργα εχω δειξον μοι την πιστιν σου εκ των εργων σου καγω δειξω σοι εκ των εργων μου την πιστιν μου
19Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
19συ πιστευεισ οτι ο θεοσ εισ εστιν καλωσ ποιεισ και τα δαιμονια πιστευουσιν και φρισσουσιν
20But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
20θελεισ δε γνωναι ω ανθρωπε κενε οτι η πιστισ χωρισ των εργων νεκρα εστιν
21Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
21αβρααμ ο πατηρ ημων ουκ εξ εργων εδικαιωθη ανενεγκασ ισαακ τον υιον αυτου επι το θυσιαστηριον
22Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?
22βλεπεισ οτι η πιστισ συνηργει τοισ εργοισ αυτου και εκ των εργων η πιστισ ετελειωθη
23And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.
23και επληρωθη η γραφη η λεγουσα επιστευσεν δε αβρααμ τω θεω και ελογισθη αυτω εισ δικαιοσυνην και φιλοσ θεου εκληθη
24Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
24ορατε 3708 V-PAI-2P τοινυν οτι εξ εργων δικαιουται ανθρωποσ και ουκ εκ πιστεωσ μονον
25Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way?
25ομοιωσ δε και ρααβ η πορνη ουκ εξ εργων εδικαιωθη υποδεξαμενη τουσ αγγελουσ και ετερα οδω εκβαλουσα
26For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
26ωσπερ γαρ το σωμα χωρισ πνευματοσ νεκρον εστιν ουτωσ και η πιστισ χωρισ των εργων νεκρα εστιν
