Revised Version 1895
James 2:14-24
14WhatG5101 doth itG846 profitG3786, myG2192 brethrenG80, ifG1437 a manG5100 sayG3004 heG846 hath faithG4102, butG1161 have notG3361 worksG2041? canG1410 thatG3004 faithG4102 saveG4982 himG846?
15IfG1437 a brotherG80 orG2228 sisterG79 beG2532 nakedG1131, andG2532 inG2532 lackG3007 ofG80 dailyG2184 foodG5160,
16andG2532 oneG5100 ofG1537 youG5210 sayG3004 unto themG846, GoG5217 inG1722 peaceG1515, beG2532 ye warmedG2328 andG2532 filledG5526; andG2532 yetG2532 ye giveG1325 themG846 notG3361 theG3588 thingsG846 needful toG3004 theG3588 bodyG4983; whatG5101 doth itG846 profitG3786?
17EvenG2532 soG2532 faithG4102, ifG1437 itG1437 have notG3361 worksG2041, isG1510 deadG3498 inG2596 itselfG1438.
18Yea, a manG5100 willG5100 sayG3004, Thou hast faithG4102, andG4102 IG1473 have worksG2041: shew meG3004 thy faithG4102 apartG5565 fromG1537 thy worksG2041, andG4102 IG1473 byG1537 myG2192 worksG2041 willG5100 shew thee myG2192 faithG4102.
19Thou believest thatG3754 GodG2316 isG1510 oneG1520; thou doest wellG2573: theG3588 devils alsoG2532 believeG4100, andG2532 shudderG5425.
20ButG1161 wilt thou knowG1097, OG5599 vainG2756 manG444, thatG3754 faithG4102 apartG5565 fromG5565 worksG2041 isG1510 barren?
21Was notG3756 AbrahamG11 ourG11 fatherG3962 justifiedG1344 byG1537 worksG2041, inG1909 thatG846 heG846 offeredG399 upG399 IsaacG2464 hisG846 sonG5207 uponG1909 theG3588 altarG2379?
22Thou seest thatG3754 faithG4102 wrought withG1537 hisG846 worksG2041, andG2532 byG1537 worksG2041 was faithG4102 madeG5048 perfectG5048;
23andG2532 theG3588 scriptureG1124 was fulfilledG4137 whichG3588 saith, AndG2532 AbrahamG11 believedG4100 GodG2316, andG2532 itG846 was reckonedG3049 unto himG846 forG1519 righteousnessG1343; andG2532 heG2532 was calledG2564 theG3588 friendG5384 ofG2316 GodG2316.
24Ye seeG3708 thatG3754 byG1537 worksG2041 a manG444 is justifiedG1344, andG2532 notG3756 onlyG3440 byG1537 faithG4102.
