James 2:9
Print
But if ye have respect of persons, ye commit sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
but if ye have respect of persons, ye commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you show partiality [prejudice, favoritism], you are committing sin and are convicted by the Law as offenders.
But if you show servile regard (prejudice, favoritism) for people, you commit sin and are rebuked and convicted by the Law as violators and offenders.
But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.
If, however, you show favoritism, you commit sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But when you show favoritism, you are committing a sin, and by that same law you are exposed as a lawbreaker.
But if you show favoritism, your actions constitute sin, since you are convicted under the Torah as transgressors.
But if you treat some people better than others, you have done wrong, and the Scriptures teach that you have sinned.
But if ye have respect of persons, ye commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you are showing-respect-of-persons you are working a sin, being convicted by the Law as transgressors.
But if you have respect to persons, you commit sin, being reproved by the law as transgressors.
But if you are treating one person as more important than another, you are sinning. You are guilty of breaking God’s law.
But if you are kind to some people and you are not kind to others, then you are doing a bad thing. God's Law shows that you are wrong.
But if you show favoritism, you are committing a sin, since you are convicted by this law as transgressors.
But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you ·treat one person as being more important than another [show favoritism/partiality; 2:1], you are sinning. You are ·guilty of breaking God’s law [L convicted by the law as lawbreakers/ transgressors].
But if ye regard the persons, ye commit sin, and are rebuked of the Law, as transgressors.
If you favor one person over another, you’re sinning, and this law convicts you of being disobedient.
But if you treat people according to their outward appearance, you are guilty of sin, and the Law condemns you as a lawbreaker.
But if you show favoritism, you commit sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you are treating one person as if he were more important than another, then you are sinning. That royal law proves that you are guilty of breaking God’s law.
But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and will be convicted by the Law as violators.
If you obey the royal law, expressed by the scripture, ‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself’, all is well. But once you allow any invidious distinctions to creep in, you are sinning, you have broken God’s Law. Remember that a man who keeps the whole Law but for a single exception is none the less a law-breaker. The one who said, ‘Do not commit adultery’, also said, ‘Do not murder’. If you were to keep clear of adultery but were to murder a man you would have become a breaker of God’s whole Law.
but if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin and are accused of the law as rebels.
But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.
but if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.
But if you show partiality, you are committing sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and thus are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But you are breaking this law of our Lord’s when you favor the rich and fawn over them; it is sin.
You do well when you complete the Royal Rule of the Scriptures: “Love others as you love yourself.” But if you play up to these so-called important people, you go against the Rule and stand convicted by it. You can’t pick and choose in these things, specializing in keeping one or two things in God’s law and ignoring others. The same God who said, “Don’t commit adultery,” also said, “Don’t murder.” If you don’t commit adultery but go ahead and murder, do you think your non-adultery will cancel out your murder? No, you’re a murderer, period.
But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as sinners.
But if you show favoritism, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
If you favor one person over another, you’re sinning, and this law convicts you of being disobedient.
But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the Law as violators.
But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
However, if you show partiality, you are committing a sin and stand convicted by the law as lawbreakers.
But if you treat one person as being more important than another, you are sinning. You are guilty of breaking God’s law.
But if you show prejudice, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as violators.
But you sin if you don’t treat everyone the same. The law judges you because you have broken it.
But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers.
But if you show favouritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as law-breakers.
but if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you look on one man as more important than another, you are sinning. And the Law says you are sinning.
But if you favor some people over others, you are committing a sin. You are guilty of breaking the law.
But if you regard one person more than another, you commit sin, and are rebuked by the law as transgressors.
But if you show partiality, you commit sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you show partiality, you commit sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you show partiality, you commit sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you show partiality, you commit sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you show favoritism, you are committing sin, and you will be convicted by the law as a lawbreaker.
But if you show maso panim (favoritism), you are chote’im (sinners) committing averos (transgressions) against the Torah. [DEVARIM 1:17]
But if you show favoritism, you commit sin and are rebuked by the Law as transgressors.
But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you show favoritism, you are committing sin and are convicted by the Torah as transgressors.
But if you show favoritism—paying attention to those who can help you in some way, while ignoring those who seem to need all the help—you’ll be sinning and condemned by the law.
But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.
But if you think one man is better than another, that is wrong. The law says you are a bad person.
But if ye take persons, ye work sin, and be reproved of the law, as trespassers [as transgressors].
and if ye accept persons, sin ye do work, being convicted by the law as transgressors;
