5Hearken, myG191 belovedG27 brethrenG80; didG191 notG3756 GodG2316 chooseG1586 themG846 thatG3739 are poorG4434 asG1722 toG2532 theG3588 worldG2889 toG2532 beG2532 richG4145 inG1722 faithG4102, andG2532 heirsG2818 ofG932 theG3588 kingdomG932 whichG3739 heG2532 promisedG1861 toG2532 themG846 thatG3739 loveG25 himG846?

6ButG1161 ye have dishonoured theG3588 poorG4434 manG4145. DoG2532 notG3756 theG3588 richG4145 oppress youG5210, andG2532 themselvesG846 dragG1670 youG5210 beforeG1519 theG3588 judgment-seats?

7DoG3756 notG3756 theyG846 blasphemeG987 theG3588 honourable nameG3686 byG1909 theG3588 whichG3588 ye are calledG1941?

8Howbeit ifG1487 ye fulfill theG3588 royalG937 lawG3551, accordingG2596 toG2596 theG3588 scriptureG1124, Thou shalt loveG25 thy neighbour asG5613 thyself, ye doG4160 wellG2573:

9butG1161 ifG1487 ye have respect ofG3551 persons, ye commit sinG266, being convictedG1651 byG5259 theG3588 lawG3551 asG5613 transgressorsG3848.
