James 2:5
| ← James 2:4 | James 2:5 (KJV) | James 2:6 → |
|---|---|---|
Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?
|
Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?
|
But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?
