1 My brothers, do not in partiality hold the faith from our Lord Jesus Christ of glory. 2 For if a man might come into your? synagogue in splendid apparel with a gold ring, and a poor one in filthy apparel also might come in, 3 and you? might look upon the man bearing the splendid apparel and might say, “You sit here well,” and to the poor one might say, “You stand,” or, “Sit there under my footstool,” 4 then did you? not make a distinction among yourselves and become judges with evil reasonings? 5 Listen, my beloved brothers: Did not God choose the poor in this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom that He promised to those loving Him? 6 But you? dishonored the poor one. Do not the rich oppress you?, and they drag you? into court? James 2:1-6, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
