James 2:17-26
17EvenG2532 so faithG4102, if it have not worksG2041, isG1510 deadG3498 in itself. 18Yea, a man will sayG3004, Thou hast faithG4102, and I have worksG2041: showG1166 me thy faithG4102 apartG5565 from thy worksG2041, and I by my worksG2041 will showG1166 thee my faithG4102. 19Thou believest that GodG2316 isG1510 oneG1520; thou doest wellG2573: the demonsG1140 alsoG2532 believeG4100, and shudder. 20But wilt thou knowG1097, O vainG2756 manG444, that faithG4102 apartG5565 from worksG2041 isG1510 barren? 21Was not AbrahamG11 our fatherG3962 justifiedG1344 by worksG2041, in that he offeredG399 up IsaacG2464 his sonG5207 upon the altarG2379? 22Thou seest that faithG4102 wrought with his worksG2041, and by worksG2041 was faithG4102 madeG5048 perfectG5048; 23and the scriptureG1124 was fulfilled which saith, And AbrahamG11 believedG4100 GodG2316, and it was reckonedG3049 unto him for righteousnessG1343; and he was calledG2564 the friendG5384 of GodG2316. 24Ye seeG3708 that by worksG2041 a manG444 is justifiedG1344, and not onlyG3440 by faithG4102. 25And in like manner was not alsoG2532 RahabG4460 the harlot justifiedG1344 by worksG2041, in that she received the messengersG32, and sentG1544 them out another wayG3598? 26For as the bodyG4983 apartG5565 from the spiritG4151 isG1510 deadG3498, evenG2532 so faithG4102 apartG5565 from worksG2041 isG1510 deadG3498.
