For if any one is a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like a man that looks at his natural face in a mirror:

But he that looks intently into the perfect law of liberty, and remains constant, being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, he shall be blessed in his deed.

Can the fig-tree, my brethren, bear olives, or the vine, figs? So no fountain can produce salt water and fresh.

draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded men.

Do not speak evil one of another, brethren. He that speaks evil of his brother, and judges his brother, speaks evil of the law, and judges the law: but if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law, but a judge.

Indulge not in complaints against one another, brethren, lest you be condemned: behold, the judge stands before the door.
