2 My egō brothers adelphos, stop mē showing echō favoritism prosōpolēmpsia as you live out en your ho faith pistis in ho our hēmeis glorious doxa Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos. · ho ² For gar if ean a man anēr comes eiserchomai into eis your hymeis congregation synagōgē wearing a gold ring chrysodaktylios and en fine lampros clothes esthēs, and de a poor man ptōchos in en dirty rhyparos clothes esthēs also kai comes in eiserchomai, ³ and de you pay special attention epiblepō to epi the ho one wearing phoreō the ho fine lampros clothes esthēs · ho and kai say legō, “ You sy sit kathēmai here hōde in a good place kalōs,” but kai to the ho poor ptōchos man you say legō, “ You sy stand histēmi over there ekei, or ē sit kathēmai down here at hypo · ho my egō feet hypopodion,” ⁴ have you not ou made distinctions diakrinō among en yourselves heautou and kai become ginomai judges kritēs with evil ponēros motives dialogismos? ⁵ Listen akouō, my egō dear agapētos brothers adelphos! Did not ou · ho God theos choose eklegomai those ho whom the ho world kosmos considers poor ptōchos to be rich plousios in en faith pistis and kai to inherit klēronomos the ho kingdom basileia, which hos he promised epangellomai to those ho who love agapaō him autos? ⁶ But de you hymeis have dishonored atimazō the ho poor ptōchos! Is it not ou the ho rich plousios who oppress katadynasteuō you hymeis? And kai are not they autos the ones who drag you hymeis into eis court kritērion? ⁷ Are they autos not ou the ones who are blaspheming blasphēmeō the ho honorable kalos name onoma by which ho you hymeis were called epikaleō? ⁸ If ei you teleō really mentoi fulfill teleō the royal basilikos law nomos as set forth in kata this ho scripture graphē, “ You shall love agapaō · ho your sy neighbor plēsion as hōs yourself seautou,” you are doing poieō well kalōs. ⁹ But de if ei you show favoritism prosōpolēmpteō, you are committing ergazomai sin hamartia and are convicted elenchō by hypo the ho law nomos as hōs transgressors parabatēs. ¹⁰ For gar whoever hostis keeps tēreō the ho entire holos law nomos yet de fails ptaiō at en a single point heis has become ginomai guilty enochos of the law as a whole pas. ¹¹ For gar he ho who said legō, “ Do not mē commit adultery moicheuō,” also kai said legō, “ Do not mē commit murder phoneuō.” Now de if ei you do not ou commit adultery moicheuō but de do commit murder phoneuō, you have become ginomai a transgressor parabatēs of the law nomos. ¹² So houtōs speak laleō and kai so houtōs act poieō as hōs those who are mellō to be judged krinō by dia the law nomos that brings freedom eleutheria. ¹³ · ho For gar judgment krisis will be without mercy aneleos for one ho who has shown poieō no mē mercy eleos; mercy eleos triumphs katakauchaomai over judgment krisis.

⁵³ And kai they led apagō · ho Jesus Iēsous to pros the ho high archiereus priest ; and kai all pas the ho ruling archiereus priests and kai the ho elders presbyteros and kai the ho scribes grammateus came together synerchomai. ⁵⁴ And kai · ho Peter Petros followed akoloutheō him autos from apo a distance makrothen, right heōs esō into eis the ho courtyard aulē of the ho high archiereus priest , and kai he was eimi sitting synkathēmai with meta the ho officers hypēretēs and kai warming thermainō himself at pros the ho fire phōs. ⁵⁵ Now de the ho ruling archiereus priests and kai the ho entire holos council synedrion were seeking zēteō testimony martyria against kata · ho Jesus Iēsous to eis · ho put thanatoō him autos to death, but kai they were not ou finding heuriskō any. ⁵⁶ For gar many polys were giving false pseudomartyreō testimony against kata him autos, but kai their ho testimonies martyria were eimi not ou in agreement isos. ⁵⁷ And kai some tis, standing anistēmi up , were giving false pseudomartyreō testimony against kata him autos, saying legō, ⁵⁸ “ We hēmeis heard akouō him autos saying legō, ‘ I egō will destroy katalyō · ho this houtos temple naos · ho made cheiropoiētos with hands , and kai in dia three treis days hēmera I will build oikodomeō another allos not made acheiropoiētos with hands .’” ⁵⁹ Yet kai not oude even about houtōs this was eimi their autos testimony martyria in agreement isos. · ho ⁶⁰ Then kai the ho high priest archiereus, standing anistēmi up in eis their midst mesos, asked eperōtaō · ho Jesus Iēsous, saying legō, “ Are you not ou going to reply apokrinomai to what tis these houtos men are testifying against katamartyreō you sy?” ⁶¹ But de he ho remained silent siōpaō and kai answered apokrinomai back nothing oudeis. Again palin the ho high archiereus priest questioned eperōtaō him autos and kai said legō to him autos, “ Are eimi you sy the ho Messiah Christos, the ho Son hyios of the ho Blessed eulogētos?” ⁶² · ho And de Jesus Iēsous said legō, “ I egō am eimi; and kai you will see horaō the ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos sitting kathēmai at ek the right dexios hand of ho Power dynamis and kai coming erchomai with meta the ho clouds nephelē of ho heaven ouranos.” ⁶³ · ho And de the high archiereus priest , tearing · ho his autos garments chitōn, said legō, “ Why tis do we still eti have echō need chreia of witnesses martys? ⁶⁴ You have heard akouō the ho blasphemy blasphēmia! What tis appears phainō to be right to you hymeis?” And de they ho all pas condemned katakrinō him autos as eimi deserving enochos death thanatos. ⁶⁵ And kai some tis began archō to spit emptyō on him autos, and kai to cover perikalyptō his autos · ho face prosōpon, and kai to strike kolaphizō him autos, and kai to say legō to him autos, “ Prophesy prophēteuō!” Even kai the ho officers hypēretēs received lambanō him autos with slaps rhapisma to the face.
