But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons.

And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say to him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool:

But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment-seats?

But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

For he shall have judgment without mercy that hath shown no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.

Also a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: show me thy faith without thy works, and I will show thee my faith by my works.

But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.

Ye lust and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.

Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a testimony against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have amassed treasure for the last days.

Behold, the hire of the laborers who have reaped your fields, which is by you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them who have reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.

Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.

Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.

Behold, we count them happy who endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
