^31 (A)And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise.

¹² Therefore, ^(A)whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for ^(B)this is the Law and the Prophets.

¹⁴ For ^(A)all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: ^(B)“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”

³⁹ And the second is like it: ^(A)‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’

⁸ If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, ^(A)“You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you do well; ⁹ but if you ^[a]show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as ^(B)transgressors. ¹⁰ For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet ^(C)stumble in one point, ^(D)he is guilty of all. ¹¹ For He who said, ^(E)“Do not commit adultery,” also said, ^(F)“Do not murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery, but you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law. ¹² So speak and so do as those who will be judged by ^(G)the law of liberty. ¹³ For ^(H)judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown ^(I)no ^(J)mercy. ^(K)Mercy triumphs over judgment.

Faith Without Works Is Dead^(L)

^14 (M)What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? ^15 (N)If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, ¹⁶ and ^(O)one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit?
