James 1:23-27
23ForG3754 anyoneG5100 who hearsG1510G202 the wordG3056 butG2532 does not carry it outG3756G4163 is likeG1503 a manG435 who looksG2657 at hisG846 faceG1078G4383 inG1722 a mirrorG2072, 24and after observingG2657 himselfG1438 goes awayG565 andG2532 immediatelyG2112 forgetsG1950 what he looks likeG3697G1510. 25ButG1161 theG3588 one who looks intentlyG3879 intoG1519 the perfectG5046 lawG3551 of freedomG1657, andG2532 continues to do soG3887—notG3756 beingG1096 a forgetfulG1953 hearerG202, butG235 an effectiveG2041 doerG4163—he will beG1510 blessedG3107 inG1722 whatG3588 heG846 doesG4162.
26IfG1487 anyoneG5100 considers himselfG1380G1510 religiousG2357 and yet does not bridleG3361G5468 hisG846 tongueG1100, he deceivesG538 hisG846 heartG2588 and his religionG2356 is worthlessG3152. 27PureG2513 andG2532 undefiledG283 religionG2356 beforeG3844 our GodG2316 andG2532 FatherG3962 isG1510 thisG3778: to care forG1980 orphansG3737 andG2532 widowsG5503 inG1722 theirG846 distressG2347, and to keepG5083 oneselfG1438 from being pollutedG784 byG575 theG3588 worldG2889.
