Ezekiel
9-12
Eze
9:1 Then he cried in my ears with a loud voice, saying, Cause those
who are in charge of the city to draw near, every man with his
destroying weapon in his hand.
Eze
9:2 Behold, six men came from the way of the upper gate, which lies
toward the north, every man with his slaughter weapon in his hand;
and one man in the midst of them clothed in linen, with a writer's
inkhorn by his side. They went in, and stood beside the bronze altar.
Eze
9:3 The glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub,
whereupon it was, to the threshold of the house: and he called to the
man clothed in linen, who had the writer's inkhorn by his side.
Eze
9:4 Yahweh said to him, Go through the midst of the city, through
the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark on the foreheads of the men
that sigh and that cry over all the abominations that are done in its
midst.
Eze
9:5 To the others he said in my hearing, Go you through the city
after him, and strike: don't let your eye spare, neither have you
pity;
Eze
9:6 kill utterly the old man, the young man and the virgin, and
little children and women; but don't come near any man on whom is the
mark: and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the old men that
were before the house.
Eze
9:7 He said to them, Defile the house, and fill the courts with the
slain: go you forth. They went forth, and struck in the city.
Eze
9:8 It happened, while they were smiting, and I was left, that I
fell on my face, and cried, and said, Ah Lord Yahweh! will you
destroy all the residue of Israel in your pouring out of your wrath
on Jerusalem?
Eze
9:9 Then said he to me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and
Judah is exceedingly great, and the land is full of blood, and the
city full of perversion: for they say, Yahweh has forsaken the land,
and Yahweh doesn't see.
Eze
9:10 As for me also, my eye shall not spare, neither will I have
pity, but I will bring their way on their head.
Eze
9:11 Behold, the man clothed in linen, who had the inkhorn by his
side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as you have commanded
me.
Eze
10:1 Then I looked, and see, in the expanse that was over the head
of the cherubim there appeared above them as it were a sapphire
stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
Eze
10:2 He spoke to the man clothed in linen, and said, Go in between
the whirling wheels,
even under the cherub, and fill both your hands with coals of fire
from between the cherubim, and scatter them over the city. He went in
as I watched.
Eze
10:3 Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, when the
man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
Eze
10:4 The glory of Yahweh mounted up from the cherub, and
stood over the threshold of the house;
and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of
the brightness of Yahweh's glory.
Eze
10:5 The sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even to the
outer court, as the voice of God Almighty when he speaks.
Eze
10:6 It came to pass, when he commanded the man clothed in linen,
saying, Take fire from between the whirling wheels, from between the
cherubim, that he went in, and stood beside a wheel.
Eze
10:7 The cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim
to the fire that was between the cherubim, and took of
it, and put it into the hands of him who
was clothed in linen, who took it and went out.
Eze
10:8 There appeared in the cherubim the form of a man's hand under
their wings.
Eze
10:9 I looked, and behold, four wheels beside the cherubim, one
wheel beside one cherub, and another wheel beside another cherub; and
the appearance of the wheels was like a beryl stone.
Eze
10:10 As for their appearance, they four had one likeness, as if a
wheel have been within a wheel.
Eze
10:11 When they went, they went in their four directions: they
didn't turn as they went, but to the place where the head looked they
followed it; they didn't turn as they went.
Eze
10:12 Their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their
wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes all around, even
the wheels that they four had.
Eze
10:13 As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing, the
whirling wheels.
Eze
10:14 Every one had four faces: the first face was the face of the
cherub, and the second face was the face of a man, and the third face
the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
Eze
10:15 The cherubim mounted up: this is the living creature that I
saw by the river Chebar.
Eze
10:16 When the cherubim went, the wheels went beside them; and when
the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the
wheels also didn't turn from beside them.
Eze
10:17 When they stood, these stood; and when they mounted up, these
mounted up with them: for the spirit of the living creature was in
them.
Eze
10:18 The glory of Yahweh went forth from over the threshold of the
house, and stood over the cherubim.
Eze
10:19 The cherubim lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the
earth in my sight when they went forth, and the wheels beside them:
and they stood at the door of the east gate of Yahweh's house; and
the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
Eze
10:20 This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel
by the river Chebar; and I knew that they were cherubim.
Eze
10:21 Every one had four faces, and every one four wings; and the
likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.
Eze
10:22 As for the likeness of their faces, they were the faces which
I saw by the river Chebar, their appearances and themselves; they
went every one straight forward.
Eze
11:1 Moreover the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me to the east
gate of Yahweh's house, which looks eastward: and see, at the door of
the gate twenty-five men; and I saw in the midst of them Jaazaniah
the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the
people.
Eze
11:2 He said to me, Son of man, these are the men who devise
iniquity, and who give wicked counsel in this city;
Eze
11:3 who say, The time
is not near to build houses: this city
is the caldron, and we are the flesh.
Eze
11:4 Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, son of man.
Eze
11:5 The Spirit of Yahweh fell on me, and he said to me, Speak, Thus
says Yahweh: Thus have you said, house of Israel; for I know the
things that come into your mind.
Eze
11:6 You have multiplied your slain in this city, and you have
filled its streets with the slain.
Eze
11:7 Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Your slain whom you have
laid in its midst, they are the flesh, and this city
is the caldron; but you shall be brought forth out of its midst.
Eze
11:8 You have feared the sword; and I will bring the sword on you,
says the Lord Yahweh.
Eze
11:9 I will bring you forth out of its midst, and deliver you into
the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
Eze
11:10 You shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the border of
Israel; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.
Eze
11:11 This city
shall not be your caldron, neither shall you be the flesh in its
midst; I will judge you in the border of Israel;
Eze
11:12 and you shall know that I am Yahweh: for you have not walked
in my statutes, neither have you executed my ordinances, but have
done after the ordinances of the nations that are around you.
Eze
11:13 It happened, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of
Benaiah died. Then fell I down on my face, and cried with a loud
voice, and said, Ah Lord Yahweh! will you make a full end of the
remnant of Israel?
Eze
11:14 The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
Eze
11:15 Son of man, your brothers, even your brothers, the men of your
relatives, and all the house of Israel, all of them, are
they to whom the inhabitants of
Jerusalem have said, Get you far from Yahweh; to us is this land
given for a possession.
Eze
11:16 Therefore say, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Whereas I have
removed them far off among the nations, and whereas I have scattered
them among the countries, yet will I be to them a sanctuary for a
little while in the countries where they are come.
Eze
11:17 Therefore say, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: I will gather you
from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries where you
have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.
Eze
11:18 They shall come there, and they shall take away all the
detestable things of it and all its abominations from there.
Eze
11:19 I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within
you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will
give them a heart of flesh;
Eze
11:20 that they may walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and
do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
Eze
11:21 But as for them whose heart walks after the heart of their
detestable things and their abominations, I will bring their way on
their own heads, says the Lord Yahweh.
Eze
11:22 Then did the cherubim lift up their wings, and the wheels were
beside them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
Eze
11:23 The glory of Yahweh went up from the midst of the city, and
stood on the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
Eze
11:24 The Spirit lifted me up, and brought me in the vision by the
Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision
that I had seen went up from me.
Eze
11:25 Then I spoke to them of the captivity all the things that
Yahweh had shown me.
Eze
12:1 The word of Yahweh also came to me, saying,
Eze
12:2 Son of man, you dwell in the midst of the rebellious house, who
have eyes to see, and don't see, who have ears to hear, and don't
hear; for they are a rebellious house.
Eze
12:3 Therefore, you son of man, prepare you stuff for removing, and
remove by day in their sight; and you shall remove from your place to
another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though
they are a rebellious house.
Eze
12:4 You shall bring forth your stuff by day in their sight, as
stuff for removing; and you shall go forth yourself at even in their
sight, as when men go forth into exile.
Eze
12:5 Dig you through the wall in their sight, and carry out thereby.
Eze
12:6 In their sight you shall bear it on your shoulder, and carry it
forth in the dark; you shall cover your face, that you don't see the
land: for I have set you for a sign to the house of Israel.
Eze
12:7 I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day,
as stuff for removing, and in the even I dug through the wall with my
hand; I brought it forth in the dark, and bore it on my shoulder in
their sight.
Eze
12:8 In the morning came the word of Yahweh to me, saying,
Eze
12:9 Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house,
said to you, What do you?
Eze
12:10 Say you to them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: This burden
concerns
the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel among whom they
are.
Eze
12:11 Say, I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done
to them; they shall go into exile, into captivity.
Eze
12:12 The prince who is among them shall bear on his shoulder in the
dark, and shall go forth: they shall dig through the wall to carry
out thereby: he shall cover his face, because he shall not see the
land with his eyes.
Eze
12:13 My net also will I spread on him, and he shall be taken in my
snare; and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans;
yet shall he not see it, though he shall die there.
Eze
12:14 I will scatter toward every wind all who are around him to
help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after
them.
Eze
12:15 They shall know that I am Yahweh, when I shall disperse them
among the nations, and scatter them through the countries.
Eze
12:16 But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the
famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their
abominations among the nations where they come; and they shall know
that I am Yahweh.
Eze
12:17 Moreover the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
Eze
12:18 Son of man, eat your bread with quaking, and drink your water
with trembling and with fearfulness;
Eze
12:19 and tell the people of the land, Thus says the Lord Yahweh
concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the land of Israel: They
shall eat their bread with fearfulness, and drink their water in
dismay, that her land may be desolate, and
despoiled of all that is therein,
because of the violence of all those who dwell therein.
Eze
12:20 The cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the
land shall be a desolation; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.
Eze
12:21 The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
Eze
12:22 Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of
Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision fails?
Eze
12:23 Tell them therefore, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: I will make
this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in
Israel; but tell them, The days are at hand, and the fulfillment of
every vision.
Eze
12:24 For there shall be no more any false vision nor flattering
divination within the house of Israel.
Eze
12:25 For I am Yahweh; I will speak, and the word that I shall speak
shall be performed; it shall be no more deferred: for in your days,
rebellious house, will I speak the word, and will perform it, says
the Lord Yahweh.
Eze
12:26 Again the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
Eze
12:27 Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, The
vision that he sees is for many day to come, and he prophesies of
times that are far off.
Eze
12:28 Therefore tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: There shall
none of my words be deferred any more, but the word which I shall
speak shall be performed, says the Lord Yahweh.

is
a effort to understand the Bible by considering it from different
perspectives and different levels of literalcy. First, read the
World English Bible (the least literal-black
text)
for comprehension of the text. Next, read both the World English
Bible with the Darby Translation (more literal-blue
text)
to make comparisons and lastly, read all three versions (Young's is
the most literal translation-
red text)
at one time to obtain an overview of the text. Doing this will make
you think about what
the
Scriptures are actually saying and avoid reading in a superficial
manner.

have charge over the city

round in
their
going.

are the days, and perished hath every vision?
Ezekiel 12 23
Tell
them therefore, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: I will make this proverb
to cease, and they shall no
more use it as a proverb in Israel; but tell them, The days are at
hand, and the fulfillment of every
vision.
Tell
them therefore, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will make this
proverb to cease, and
they
shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but say unto them, The
days are at hand,
and
the accomplishment of every vision.
therefore
say unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have caused this simile
to
cease,
And they use it not as a simile again in Israel, But speak to them:
Drawn
near

Ezekiel 12 24
For
there shall be no more any false vision nor flattering divination
within the house of Israel.
For
there shall be no more any vain vision nor flattering divination in
the midst of the
house
of Israel.
For
there is no more any vain vision, and flattering divination, In the

I am Yahweh; I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall be
performed; it shall be no more
deferred: for in your days, rebellious house, will I speak the word,
and will perform it, says the Lord Yahweh.
For
I [am] Jehovah; I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall
be performed, it
shall
be no more deferred. For in your days, O rebellious house, will I
speak the word and
will perform it, saith the Lord Jehovah.
For
I [am] Jehovah, I speak, The word that I speak -- it is done, It is
not prolonged
any
more, For, in your days, O rebellious house, I speak a word, and I
have done it,
An
affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.`

the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
And
the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
And
there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:

days, and of times far off he is prophesying,

Yahweh.
Therefore
say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: There shall none of my
words be
deferred
any more, but the word that I have spoken shall be done, saith the
Lord Jehovah.
therefore
say unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: None of my words are
prolonged
any more, When I speak a word -- it is done, An affirmation of the
Lord
Jehovah!`

James 2
Jas 2:1 My brothers,
don't hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory with
partiality.
Jas 2:2 For if a man
with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your synagogue, and a
poor man in filthy clothing also comes in;
Jas 2:3 and you pay
special attention to him who wears the fine clothing, and say, "Sit
here in a good place;" and you tell the poor man, "Stand
there," or "Sit by my footstool;"
Jas 2:4 haven't you
shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil
thoughts?
Jas 2:5 Listen, my
beloved brothers. Didn't God choose those who are poor in this world
to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to
those who love him?
Jas 2:6 But you have
dishonored the poor man. Don't the rich oppress you, and personally
drag you before the courts?
Jas 2:7 Don't they
blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?
Jas 2:8 However, if you
fulfill the royal law, according to the Scripture, "You shall
love your neighbor as yourself," you do well.
Jas 2:9 But if you show
partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as
transgressors.
Jas 2:10 For whoever
keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become
guilty of all.
Jas 2:11 For he who
said, "Do not commit adultery," also said, "Do not
commit murder." Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder,
you have become a transgressor of the law.
Jas 2:12 So speak, and
so do, as men who are to be judged by a law of freedom.
Jas 2:13 For judgment
is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over
judgment.
Jas 2:14 What good is
it, my brothers, if a man says he has faith, but has no works? Can
faith save him?
Jas 2:15 And if a
brother or sister is naked and in lack of daily food,
Jas 2:16 and one of you
tells them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled;" and yet
you didn't give them the things the body needs, what good is it?
Jas 2:17 Even so faith,
if it has no works, is dead in itself.
Jas 2:18 Yes, a man
will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your
faith without works, and I by my works will show you my faith.
Jas 2:19 You believe
that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe, and shudder.
Jas 2:20 But do you
want to know, vain man, that faith apart from works is dead?
Jas 2:21 Wasn't Abraham
our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son on
the altar?
Jas 2:22 You see that
faith worked with his works, and by works faith was perfected;
Jas 2:23 and the
Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and
it was accounted to him as righteousness;" and he was called the
friend of God.
Jas 2:24 You see then
that by works, a man is justified, and not only by faith.
Jas 2:25 In like manner
wasn't Rahab the prostitute also justified by works, in that she
received the messengers, and sent them out another way?
Jas 2:26 For as the
body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is
dead.

is
a effort to understand the Bible by considering it from different
perspectives and different levels of literalcy. First, read the
World English Bible (the least literal-black
text)
for comprehension of the text. Next, read both the World English
Bible with the Darby Translation (more literal-blue
text)to
make comparisons and lastly, read all three versions (Young's is the
most literal translation-
red text)
at one time to obtain an overview of the text. Doing this will make
you think about what
the
Scriptures are actually saying and avoid reading in a superficial
manner.
James
James 2 1
My
brothers, don`t hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, [the Lord]
of glory, with respect of persons.
My
brethren, do not have the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, [Lord] of
glory, with respect
of
persons:
My
brethren, hold not, in respect of persons, the faith of the glory of
our Lord
Jesus
Christ,
James 2 2
For
if a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your
assembly, and there come in also a
poor man in filthy clothing;
for
if there come unto your synagogue a man with a gold ring in splendid
apparel, and a
poor
man also come in in vile apparel,
for
if there may come into your synagogue a man with gold ring, in gay
raiment,
and
there may come in also a poor man in vile raiment,
James 2 3
and
you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing, and
say, "Sit here in a good place;"
and you tell the poor man, "Stand there," or "Sit by
my footstool;"
and
ye look upon him who wears the splendid apparel, and say, Do thou
sit here well, and
say
to the poor, Do thou stand there, or sit here under my footstool:
and
ye may look upon him bearing the gay raiment, and may say to him,
`Thou --
sit
thou here well,` and to the poor man may say, `Thou -- stand thou
there, or, Sit
thou
here under my footstool,` --
James 2 4
haven`t
you shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil
thoughts?
have
ye not made a difference among yourselves, and become judges having
evil thoughts?
ye
did not judge fully in yourselves, and did become ill-reasoning
judges.
James 2 5
Listen,
my beloved brothers. Didn`t God choose those who are poor in this
world to be rich in faith,
and heirs of the kingdom which he promised to those who love him?
Hear,
my beloved brethren: Has not God chosen the poor as to the world,
rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom, which he has promised to them that love him?
Hearken,
my brethren beloved, did not God choose the poor of this world, rich
in
faith,
and heirs of the reign that He promised to those loving Him?
James 2 6
But
you have dishonored the poor man. Don`t the rich oppress you, and
personally drag you before
the courts?
But
*ye* have despised the poor [man]. Do not the rich oppress you, and
[do not] *they*
drag
you before [the] tribunals?
and
ye did dishonour the poor one; do not the rich oppress you and
themselves
draw
you to judgment-seats;
James 2 7
Don`t
they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?
And
[do not] *they* blaspheme the excellent name which has been called
upon you?
do
they not themselves speak evil of the good name that was called upon
you?
James 2 8
However,
if you fulfill the royal law, according to the Scripture, "You
shall love your neighbor as yourself," you do well.
If
indeed ye keep [the] royal law according to the scripture, Thou
shalt love thy
neighbour
as thyself, ye do well.
If,
indeed, royal law ye complete, according to the Writing, `Thou shalt
love thy
neighbour
as thyself,` -- ye do well;
James 2 9
But
if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as
transgressors.
But
if ye have respect of persons, ye commit sin, being convicted by the
law as
transgressors.
and
if ye accept persons, sin ye do work, being convicted by the law as
transgressors;
James 2 10
For
whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he
has become guilty of all.
For
whoever shall keep the whole law and shall offend in one [point], he
has come under
the
guilt of [breaking] all.
for
whoever the whole law shall keep, and shall stumble in one [point],
he hath
become
guilty of all;
James 2 11
For
he who said, "Do not commit adultery," said also, "Do
not commit murder." Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder, you have become a transgressor of the
law.
For
he who said, Thou shalt not commit adultery, said also, Thou shalt
not kill. Now if
thou
dost not commit adultery, but killest, thou art become transgressor
of [the] law.
for
He who is saying, `Thou mayest not commit adultery,` said also,
`Thou mayest
do
no murder;` and if thou shalt not commit adultery, and shalt commit
murder,
thou
hast become a transgressor of law;
James 2 12
So
speak, and so do, as men who are to be judged by a law of freedom.
So
speak ye, and so act, as those that are to be judged by [the] law of
liberty;
so
speak ye and so do, as about by a law of liberty to be judged,
James 2 13
For
judgment is without mercy to him who has showed no mercy. Mercy
triumphs over
judgment.
for
judgment [will be] without mercy to him that has shewn no mercy.
Mercy glories over
judgment.
for
the judgment without kindness [is] to him not having done kindness,
and
exult
doth kindness over judgment.
James 2 14
What
good is it, my brothers, if a man says he has faith, but has no
works? Can that faith save him?
What
[is] the profit, my brethren, if any one say he have faith, but have
not works? can
faith
save him?
What
[is] the profit, my brethren, if faith, any one may speak of having,
and works
he
may not have? is that faith able to save him?
James 2 15
And
if a brother or sister is naked and in lack of daily food,
Now
if a brother or a sister is naked and destitute of daily food,
and
if a brother or sister may be naked, and may be destitute of the
daily food,
James 2 16
and
one of you tells them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled;"
and yet you didn`t give them the things
the body needs, what good is it?
and
one from amongst you say to them, Go in peace, be warmed and filled;
but give not to
them
the needful things for the body, what [is] the profit?
and
any one of you may say to them, `Depart ye in peace, be warmed, and
be filled,`
and may not give to them the things needful for the body, what [is]
the profit?
James 2 17
Even
so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.
So
also faith, if it have not works, is dead by itself.
so
also the faith, if it may not have works, is dead by itself.
James 2 18
Yes,
a man will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me
your faith without your works, and
I by my works will show you my faith.
But
some one will say, *Thou* hast faith and *I* have works. Shew me thy
faith without
works,
and *I* from my works will shew thee my faith.
But
say may some one, Thou hast faith, and I have works, shew me thy
faith out of
thy
works, and I will shew thee out of my works my faith:
James 2 19
You
believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe, and
shudder.
*Thou*
believest that God is one. Thou doest well. The demons even believe,
and tremble.
thou
-- thou dost believe that God is one; thou dost well, and the demons
believe,
and
they shudder!
James 2 20
But
do you want to know, vain man, that faith apart from works is dead?
But
wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
And
dost thou wish to know, O vain man, that the faith apart from the
works is
dead?
James 2 21
Wasn`t
Abraham, our father, justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac
his son on the altar?
Was
not Abraham our father justified by works when he had offered Isaac
his son upon
the
altar?
Abraham
our father -- was not he declared righteous out of works, having
brought
up Isaac his son upon the altar?
James 2 22
You
see that faith worked with his works, and by works faith was
perfected;
Thou
seest that faith wrought with his works, and that by works faith was
perfected.
dost
thou see that the faith was working with his works, and out of the
works the
faith
was perfected?
James 2 23
and
the scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God,
and it was accounted to him as
righteousness;" and he was called the friend of God.
And
the scripture was fulfilled which says, Abraham believed God, and it
was reckoned
to
him as righteousness, and he was called Friend of God.
and
fulfilled was the Writing that is saying, `And Abraham did believe
God, and it
was reckoned to him -- to righteousness;` and, `Friend of God` he
was called.
James 2 24
You
see then that by works, a man is justified, and not only by faith.
Ye
see that a man is justified on the principle of works, and not on
the principle of faith
only.
Ye
see, then, that out of works is man declared righteous, and not out
of faith only;
James 2 25
In
like manner wasn`t Rahab the prostitute also justified by works, in
that she received the messengers,
and sent them out another way?
But
was not in like manner also Rahab the harlot justified on the
principle of works,
when
she had received the messengers and put [them] forth by another way?
and
in like manner also Rahab the harlot -- was she not out of works
declared
righteous,
having received the messengers, and by another way having sent
forth?
James 2 26
For
as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from
works is dead.
For
as the body without a spirit is dead, so also faith without works is
dead.
for
as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also the faith apart
from the
works
is dead.
