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.
12. So speak, and so do, as men who are to be judged by a law of freedom.
13. For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
14. What good is it, my brothers, if a man says he has faith, but has no works? Can faith save him?
15. And if a brother or sister is naked and in lack of daily food,
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?
17. Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.
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.
