James 2:8-12 New English Translation (NET)

8. But if you fulfill the royal law as expressed in this scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing well.

9. But if you show prejudice, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as violators.

10. For the one who obeys the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it.

11. For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a violator of the law.

12. Speak and act as those who will be judged by a law that gives freedom.
