WORD Research this...James 2
- 1 My brothers, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons.
- 2 For if there come to your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment;
- 3 And you have respect to him that wears the gay clothing, and say to him, Sit you here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand you there, or sit here under my footstool:
- 4 Are you not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?
- 5 Listen, my beloved brothers, Has not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to them that love him?
- 6 But you have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?
- 7 Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which you are called?
- 8 If you fulfill the royal law according to the scripture, You shall love your neighbor as yourself, you do well:
- 9 But if you have respect to persons, you commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.
- 10 For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
- 11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if you commit no adultery, yet if you kill, you are become a transgressor of the law.
- 12 So speak you, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
- 13 For he shall have judgment without mercy, that has showed no mercy; and mercy rejoices against judgment.
- 14 What does it profit, my brothers, though a man say he has faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
- 15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,
- 16 And one of you say to them, Depart in peace, be you warmed and filled; notwithstanding you give them not those things which are needful to the body; what does it profit?
- 17 Even so faith, if it has not works, is dead, being alone.
- 18 Yes, a man may say, You have faith, and I have works: show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.
- 19 You believe that there is one God; you do well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
- 20 But will you know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
- 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son on the altar?
- 22 See you how faith worked with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?
- 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which says, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.
- 24 You see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
- 25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way?
- 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
- 1 My brothers, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons.
- 2 For if there come to your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment;
- 3 And you have respect to him that wears the gay clothing, and say to him, Sit you here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand you there, or sit here under my footstool:
- 4 Are you not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?

- 6 But you have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?
- 7 Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which you are called?
- 8 If you fulfill the royal law according to the scripture, You shall love your neighbor as yourself, you do well:
- 9 But if you have respect to persons, you commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.
- 10 For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
- 11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if you commit no adultery, yet if you kill, you are become a transgressor of the law.
- 12 So speak you, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
- 13 For he shall have judgment without mercy, that has showed no mercy; and mercy rejoices against judgment.
- 14 What does it profit, my brothers, though a man say he has faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
- 15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,
- 16 And one of you say to them, Depart in peace, be you warmed and filled; notwithstanding you give them not those things which are needful to the body; what does it profit?
- 17 Even so faith, if it has not works, is dead, being alone.
- 18 Yes, a man may say, You have faith, and I have works: show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.
- 19 You believe that there is one God; you do well: the devils also believe, and tremble.

American King James Version (akjv - 2.1)
2023-12-27English (en)
American King James Version
Produced by Stone Engelbrite
This is a new translation of the Bible, based on the original King James Version. It is a simple word for word update from the King James English. I have taken care to change nothing doctrinely, but to simply update the spelling and vocabulary. I have not changed the grammar because that could alter it doctrinely.
I am hereby putting the American King James version of the Bible into the public domain on November 8, 1999.

Basic Hash Usage Explained
At getBible, we've established a robust system to keep our API synchronized with the Crosswire project's modules. Let me explain how this integration works in simple terms.
We source our Bible text directly from the Crosswire modules. To monitor any updates, we generate "hash values" for each chapter, book, and translation. These hash values serve as unique identifiers that change only when the underlying content changes, thereby ensuring a tight integration between getBible and the Crosswire modules.
Every month, an automated process runs for approximately three hours. During this window, we fetch the latest Bible text from the Crosswire modules. Subsequently, we compare the new hash values and the text with the previous ones. Any detected changes trigger updates to both our official getBible hash repository and the Bible API for all affected translations. This system has been operating seamlessly for several years.
Once the updates are complete, any application utilizing our Bible API should monitor the hash values at the chapter, book, or translation level. Spotting a change in these values indicates that they should update their respective systems.
Hash values can change due to various reasons, including textual corrections like adding omitted verses, rectifying spelling errors, or addressing any discrepancies flagged by the publishers maintaining the modules at Crosswire.
The Crosswire initiative, also known as the SWORD Project, is the "source of truth" for getBible. Any modifications in the Crosswire modules get reflected in our API within days, ensuring our users access the most precise and current Bible text. We pledge to uphold this standard as long as getBible exists and our build scripts remain operational.
We're united in our mission to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the Bible text. If you have questions or require additional information, please use our support system. We're here to assist and will respond promptly.
Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of the getBible community.
