James 2:9-11
New King James Version
9 but if you [a]show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as (A)transgressors. 10 For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet (B)stumble in one point, (C)he is guilty of all. 11 For He who said, (D)“Do not commit adultery,” also said, (E)“Do not murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery, but you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.
