James 2:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ And you have respect to him that is clothed with the fine apparel, and shall say to him: Sit thou here well; but say to the poor man: Stand thou there, or sit under my footstool:

⁴ Do you not judge within yourselves, and are become judges of unjust thoughts?

⁵ Hearken, my dearest brethren: hath not God chosen the poor in this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which God hath promised to them that love him?
