59:002:003 And 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: 

59:002:004 Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges
           of evil thoughts?

59:002:005 Hearken, 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?

59:002:006 But ye have despised the poor.  Do not rich men oppress you,
           and draw you before the judgment seats?

59:002:007 Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are
           called?

59:002:008 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou
           shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: 

59:002:009 But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are
           convinced of the law as transgressors.

59:002:010 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one
           point, he is guilty of all.

59:002:011 For 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.

59:002:012 So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the
           law of liberty.

59:002:013 For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no
           mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.

59:002:014 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath
           faith, and have not works? can faith save him?

59:002:015 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,

59:002:016 And 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?

59:002:017 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.

59:002:018 Yea, 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.

59:002:019 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well:  the
           devils also believe, and tremble.

59:002:020 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is
           dead?

59:002:021 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had
           offered Isaac his son upon the altar?

59:002:022 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was
           faith made perfect?

59:002:023 And 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.
