James 1:25-27

New International Version

²⁵ But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom,^(A) and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.^(B)

²⁶ Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues^(C) deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless. ²⁷ Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after^(D) orphans and widows^(E) in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.^(F)
