] Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of
God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:[

, and enticed.[15
] Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin,
when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

] But to them that rebuke him shall be delight, and a good
blessing shall come upon them.

the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according
to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning

] Speak not evil one of another,
brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh
evil of the law, and judgeth the law:
but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law,
but a judge. [12
] There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy:
who art thou that judgest another?

The first of all the commandments is

and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength:
this is the first commandment
.[31

Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself
. There is none
other commandment greater than these.

the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all
thy might.

1John.3[15] Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.
[2]
For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure
ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
[3] And why beholdest thou the
mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in
thine own eye?
[4] Or how wilt thou say to
thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam
is in thine own eye?
[5] Thou hypocrite, first cast
out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast
out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
[2]
For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel,
and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment;
[3] And ye have respect to him
that weareth the gay clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place;
and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool:
[4] Are ye not then partial
in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?
[5] 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?
[6] But ye have despised the
poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?
[7] Do not they blaspheme that
worthy name by the which ye are called?
[8] If ye fulfil the royal law
according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour
as thyself, ye do well:
[9] But if ye have respect to
persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.
[10] For whosoever shall keep
the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
[11] For he that said, Do not
commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet
if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
[12] So speak ye, and so do,
as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
[13]
For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy
; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.
