James - Chapter: 2


2:1	Mi britheren, nyle ye haue the feith of oure Lord Jhesu Crist of glorie, in accepcioun of persoones.
2:2	For if a man `that hath a goldun ring, and in a feire clothing, cometh in youre cumpany, and a pore man entrith in a foul clothing,
2:3	and if ye biholden in to hym that is clothid with clere clothing, and if ye seie to hym, Sitte thou here wel; but to the pore man ye seien, Stonde thou there, ethir sitte vndur the stool of my feet; whether ye demen not anentis you silf,
2:4	and ben maad domesmen of wickid thouytis?
2:5	Heere ye, my moost dereworthe britheren, whethir God chees not pore men in this world, riche in feith, and eiris of the kyngdom, that God bihiyte to men that louen him?
2:6	But ye han dispisid the pore man. Whether riche men oppressen not you bi power, and thei drawen you to domes?
2:7	Whether thei blasfemen not the good name, that is clepid to help on you?
2:8	Netheles if ye performen the kingis lawe, bi scripturis, Thou schalt loue thi neiybour as thi silf, ye don wel.
2:9	But if ye taken persones, ye worchen synne, and ben repreued of the lawe, as trespasseris.
2:10	And who euere kepith al the lawe, but offendith in oon, he is maad gilti of alle.
2:11	For he that seide, Thou schalt do no letcherie, seide also, Thou schalt not sle; that if thou doist not letcherie, but thou sleest, thou art maad trespassour of the lawe.
2:12	Thus speke ye, and thus do ye, as bigynnynge to be demyd bi the lawe of fredom.
2:13	For whi dom with out merci is to hym, that doith no mercy; but merci aboue reisith dom.
2:14	Mi britheren, what schal it profite, if ony man seie that he hath feith, but he hath not the werkis? whether feith schal mowe saue hym?
2:15	And if a brother ethir sister be nakid, and han nede of ech daies lyuelode,
2:16	and if ony of you seie to hem, Go ye in pees, be ye maad hoot, and be ye fillid; but if ye yyuen not to hem tho thingis that ben necessarie to bodi, what schal it profite?
2:17	So also feith, if it hath not werkis, is deed in it silf.
2:18	But summan schal seie, Thou hast feith, and Y haue werkis; schewe thou to me thi feith with out werkis, and Y schal schewe to thee my feith of werkis.
2:19	Thou bileuest, that o God is; thou doist wel; and deuelis bileuen, and tremblen.
2:20	But wolt thou wite, thou veyn man, that feith with out werkis is idul?
2:21	Whether Abraham, oure fadir, was not iustified of werkis, offringe Ysaac, his sone, on the auter?
2:22	Therfor thou seest, that feith wrouyte with hise werkis, and his feith was fillid of werkis.
2:23	And the scripture was fillid, seiynge, Abraham bileuede to God, and it was arettid to hym to riytwisnesse, and he was clepid the freend of God.
2:24	Ye seen that a man is iustified of werkis, and not of feith oneli.
2:25	In lijk maner, and whether also Raab, the hoore, was not iustified of werkis, and resseyuede the messangeris, and sente hem out bi anothir weie?
2:26	For as the bodi with out spirit is deed, so also feith with out werkis is deed.


2:1	Brethren have not the fayth of oure lorde Iesus Christ the lorde of glory in respecte of persons.
2:2	Yf ther come into youre company a man with a golden rynge and in goodly aparell and ther come in also a poore man in vyle rayment
2:3	and ye have a respecte to him that weareth the gaye clothynge and saye vnto him. Sit thou here in a good place: and saye vnto the poore stonde thou there or sit here vnder my fotestole:
2:4	are ye not parciall in youre selves and have iudged after evyll thoughtes?
2:5	Harken my deare beloved brethren. Hath not God chosen the poore of this worlde which are ryche in fayth and heyres of the kyngdom which he promysed to them that love him?
2:6	But ye have despised the poore. Are not the rych they which opresse you: and they which drawe you before iudges?
2:7	Do not they speake evyll of that good name after which ye be named.
2:8	Yf ye fulfill the royall lawe accordynge to the scripture which sayth. Thou shallt love thyne neghbour as thy silfe ye do well.
2:9	But yf ye regarde one person more then another ye commit synne and are rebuked of the lawe as transgressours.
2:10	Whosoever shall kepe the whole lawe and yet fayle in one poynt he is gyltie in all.
2:11	For he that sayd. Thou shallt not commit adulterie sayed also: thou shallt not kyll. Though thou do none adulterie yet yf thou kill thou arte a transgresser of the lawe.
2:12	So speake ye and so do as they that shalbe iudged by the lawe of libertie.
2:13	For ther shalbe iudgement merciles to him that sheweth no mercy and mercy reioyseth agaynst iudgement:
2:14	What a vayleth it my brethren though a man saye he hath sayth when he hath no dedes? Can fayth save him?
2:15	If a brother or a sister be naked or destitute of dayly fode
2:16	and one of you saye vnto them: Departe in peace God sende you warmnes and fode: not withstondinge ye geve the not tho thynges which are nedfull to the body: what helpeth it the?
2:17	Eve so fayth yf it have no dedes is deed in it selfe.
2:18	Ye and a man myght saye: Thou hast fayth and I have dedes: Shewe me thy fayth by thy dedes: and I will shewe the my fayth by my dedes.
2:19	Belevest thou yt ther is one God? Thou doest well. The devyls also beleve and tremble.
2:20	Wilt thou vnderstonde o thou vayne man that fayth with out dedes is deed?
2:21	Was not Abraha oure father iustified thorow workes when he offered Isaac his sonne vpo the aultre?
2:22	Thou seist how that fayth wrought with his dedes and through the dedes was the fayth made parfect:
2:23	and ye scripture was fulfilled which sayth: Abraham beleved God and it was reputed vnto him for rightewesnes: and he was called the frede of God.
2:24	Ye se then how that of dedes a man is iustified and not of fayth only.
2:25	Lyke wyse also was not Raab the harlot iustifyed thorow workes when she receaved the messengers and sent the out another waye?
2:26	For as the body with oute the sprete is deed eve so fayth with out dedes is deed


2:1	Brethren, haue not the faith of oure LORDE Iesus Christ ye LORDE of glory in respecte of persons.
2:2	Yf ther come in to yor copany a ma wt a golde rynge and in goodly aparell, & ther come in also a poore man in vyle raymet,
2:3	& ye haue a respecte to him yt weareth the gaye clothinge & saye vnto hi: Sit thou here i a good place, & saye vnto ye poore, stonde thou there or sit here vnder my fote stole:
2:4	are ye not parciall in youre selues, and haue iudged after euyll thoughtes?
2:5	Harken my deare beloued brethre. Hath not God chosen the poore of this worlde, which are ryche in faith, and heyres of the kyngdom which he promysed to the that loue him?
2:6	But ye haue despised the poore. Are not the rych they which oppresse you: & they which drawe you before iudges?
2:7	Do not they speake euell of that good name after which ye be named.
2:8	Yf ye fulfill the royall lawe acordinge to the scripture which saith: Thou shalt loue thyne neghbour as thyselfe, ye do well.
2:9	But yf ye regarde one person more then another, ye comit synne, and are rebuked of the lawe as trsagressours.
2:10	Whosoeuer shal kepe the whole lawe, and yet fayle in one poynt, he is gyltie in all.
2:11	For he that sayde: Thou shalt not commit adulterie, sayed also: thou shalt not kyll. Though thou do none adulterie, yet yf thou kill, thou art a transgresser of the lawe.
2:12	So speake ye, and so do as they that shalbe iudged by the lawe of libertie.
2:13	For ther shalbe iudgement merciles to him that sheweth no mercy, & mercy reioiseth against iudgment.
2:14	What a vayleth it my brethre, though a man saye he hath faith, when he hath no dedes? Can faith saue him?
2:15	If a brother or a sister be naked or destitute of dayly fode,
2:16	& one of you saye vnto them: Departe in peace, God sende you warmnes and fode: notwithstodinge ye geue them not tho thinges which are nedfull to the body: what helpeth it them?
2:17	Euen so faith, yf it haue no dedes, is deed in it selfe.
2:18	Ye & a man might saye: Thou hast faith, and I haue dedes: Shewe me thy faith by thy dedes: and I wil shewe the my faith by my dedes.
2:19	Beleuest thou yt ther is one God? Thou doest well. The deuils also beleue and tremble.
2:20	Wilt thou vnderstode o thou vayne man that faith with out dedes is deed:
2:21	Was not Abraham oure father iustified thorow workes when he offered Isaac his sonne vpon the aulter?
2:22	Thou seist how yt faith wrought with his dedes, and through ye dedes was the faith made perfect:
2:23	& the scripture was fulfilled which faith: Abraha beleued God and it was reputed vnto him for rightewesnes: and he was called ye frende of God.
2:24	Ye se then how that of dedes a man is iustified, and not of faith only
2:25	Likewise also was not Raab the harlot iustified thorow workes, when she receaued the messengers, and sent them out another waye?
2:26	For as the body, with oute the sprete is deed, euen so faith wt out dedes is deed.
