¹⁷So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

¹⁸But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith ^(A)apart from your works, and I will show you my faith ^(B)by my works. ¹⁹^(C)You believe that God is one; you do well. Even ^(D)the demons believe—and shudder! ²⁰Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless? ²¹^(E)Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar? ²²You see that ^(F)faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed ^(G)by his works; ²³and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, ^(H)“Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a ^(I)friend of God. ²⁴You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. ²⁵And in the same way was not also ^(J)Rahab the prostitute justified by works ^(K)when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way? ²⁶For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead.

²⁴By faith Moses, when he was grown up, ^(A)refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, ²⁵^(B)choosing rather to be mistreated with the people of God than to enjoy ^(C)the fleeting pleasures of sin. ²⁶^(D)He considered the reproach of Christ greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for he was looking to ^(E)the reward. ²⁷By faith he ^(F)left Egypt, ^(G)not being afraid of the anger of the king, for he endured ^(H)as seeing him who is invisible. ²⁸By faith ^(I)he kept the Passover and sprinkled the blood, so that the Destroyer of the firstborn might not touch them.

²⁹By faith ^(J)the people crossed the Red Sea as on dry land, but the Egyptians, when they attempted to do the same, were drowned. ³⁰By faith ^(K)the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encircled for seven days. ³¹By faith ^(L)Rahab the prostitute did not perish with those who were disobedient, because she ^(M)had given a friendly welcome to the spies.

³²And what more shall I say? For time would fail me to tell of ^(N)Gideon, ^(O)Barak, ^(P)Samson, ^(Q)Jephthah, of ^(R)David and ^(S)Samuel and the prophets— ³³who through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, obtained promises, ^(T)stopped the mouths of lions, ³⁴^(U)quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, were made strong out of weakness, ^(V)became mighty in war, ^(W)put foreign armies to flight.
