1:10	10 and a rich man in his lowness; for as the flower of grass he shall pass.	10 and the rich in that he is made low. For even as the flower of the grass shall he vanish away.	10 Again he that is rich, in that he is made low: for as the flower of the grass, shall he vanish away.	10 But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.

1:14	14 But each man is tempted, drawn and stirred of his own coveting.

1:19	19 Know ye, my brethren most loved, be each man swift to hear, but slow to speak, and slow to wrath;	19 Wherefore dear brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to wrath.	19 Wherefore my dear brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to wrath.	19 Therefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
1:20	20 for the wrath of man worketh not the rightwiseness of God.	20 For the wrath of man worketh not that which is righteous before God.	20 For the wrath of man doeth not accomplish the righteousness of God.	20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
1:21	21 For which thing cast ye away all uncleanness, and plenty of malice, and in mildness receive ye the word that is planted [+and in mildness receive ye the word inset, or joined] , that may save your souls.	21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness, all superfluity of maliciousness, and receive with meekness the word that is grafted in you, which is able to save your souls:	21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness, and superfluity of maliciousness, and receive with meekness the word that is grafted [graffed] in you, which is able to save your souls.	21 Therefore put away all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
1:22	22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.	22 And see that ye be doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. [with sophistry]	22 And be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.	22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
1:23	23 For if any man is an hearer of the word, and not a doer, this shall be likened to a man that beholdeth the face of his birth in a mirror [this shall be comparisoned, or likened, to a man beholding the cheer of his birth in a mirror] ;	23 For if any hear the word, and do it not, he is like unto a man that beholdeth his bodily face in a glass.	23 For if any hear the word, and do it not, he is like unto a man, that beholdeth his natural face in a glass.	23 For if any is a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like a man beholding his natural face in a mirror:
1:24	24 for he beheld himself, and went away, and at once he forgot which he was. [for he beheld himself, and went away, and anon he forgot what manner man he was.]	24 For as soon as he hath looked on himself, he goeth his way, and hath immediately forgotten [forgetteth immediately] what his fashion was:	24 For when he hath considered himself, he goeth his way, and forgetteth immediately what manner of one he was.	24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth away, and immediately forgetteth what manner of man he was.
1:25	25 But he that beholdeth into the law of perfect freedom, and dwelleth in it, and is not made a forgetful hearer, but a doer of work, this shall be blessed in his deed.	25 but whosoever [whoso] looketh in the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein (if he be not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work) he [the same] shall be happy in his deed.	25 But who so looketh in the perfect Law of liberty, and continueth therein, he not being a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, shall be blessed in his deed.	25 But he who looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth in it, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. [deed: or, doing]
1:26	26 And if any man guesseth himself to be religious, and refraineth not his tongue, but deceiveth his heart, the religion of him is vain.	26 If any man among you seem [seme] devout, and refrain not his tongue: but deceive his own heart, this man's devotion is in vain.	26 If any man among you seem [seemeth] religious, and refraineth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.	26 If any man among you seemeth to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
1:27	27 A clean religion, and unwemmed with God and the Father, is this, to visit fatherless and motherless children, and widows in their tribulation, and to keep himself undefouled from this world [and to keep himself undefouled from the world] .	27 Pure devotion and undefiled before God the father, is this: To visit the friendless, {fatherless} and widows in their adversity, and to keep himself unspotted from [of] the world.	27 Pure religion and undefiled before God, even the Father, is this, to visit the fatherless, and widows in their adversity, and to keep himself unspotted of the world.	27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

2:2	2 For if a man that hath a golden ring, and in a fair clothing, cometh in your company, and a poor man entereth in a foul clothing, [Forsooth if there shall enter into your covent, or gathering together, a man having a gold ring, in white, or fair, cloth, forsooth and a poor man shall enter in foul habit, or cloth,]	2 If there come into your company a man with a golden ring, and in goodly apparel and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment,	2 For if there come into your company a man with a gold ring, and in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment,	2 For if there come into your assembly a man with a gold ring, in fine apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment; [assembly: Gr. synagogue]
2:3	3 and if ye behold into him [and ye behold into him] that is clothed with clear clothing, and if ye say to him, Sit thou here well; but to the poor man ye say, Stand thou there, either sit under the stool of my feet [Stand thou there, or sit under the stool of my feet] ;	3 and ye have a respect to him that weareth the gay clothing and say unto him: Sit thou here in a good place: and say unto the poor, stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool:	3 And ye have a respect to him that weareth the gay clothing; and say unto him, Sit thou here in a goodly [good] place, and say unto the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool,	3 And ye have respect to him that weareth the fine clothing, and say to him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool: [in...: or, well, or, seemly]
2:4	4 whether ye deem not with yourselves, and be made doomsmen of wicked thoughts?	4 are ye not even partial in your selves, [are ye not parciall in your selves,] and have judged after evil thoughts?	4 Are ye not partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?	4 Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?
2:5	5 Hear ye, my most dear-worthy brethren, whether God chose not poor men in this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom, that God promised to men that love him?	5 Hearken my dear beloved brethren, hath not God chosen the poor of this world, which are rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom, which he promised to them that love him?	5 Hearken my beloved brethren, hath not God chosen the poor of this world, that they should be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he promised to them that love him?	5 Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him? [of the: or, of that]
2:6	6 But ye have despised the poor man. Whether rich men oppress not you by power, and they draw you to dooms [and draw you to dooms] ?	6 But ye have despised the poor. Are not the rich they which oppress you: and they which draw you before judges?	6 But ye have despised the poor. Do not the rich oppress you by tyranny, and do not they draw you before the judgement seats?	6 But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?

2:8	8 Nevertheless if ye perform the king's law, by scriptures [+after scriptures/by scripture] , Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well.	8 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture which saith: Thou shalt love thine neighbour as thyself, ye do well:	8 But if ye fulfill the royal Law according to the Scripture, which saith, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself, ye do well.	8 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:
2:9	9 But if ye take persons, ye work sin, and be reproved of the law, as trespassers [as transgressors] .	9 but if ye regard one person more than another, ye commit sin, and are rebuked of the law as transgressors.	9 But if ye regard the persons, ye commit sin, and are rebuked of the Law, as transgressors.	9 But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
2:10	10 And whoever keepeth all the law, but offendeth in one [Forsooth whoever shall keep all the law, soothly offend in one] , he is made guilty of all.	10 Whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet fail in one point, he is guilty in all.	10 For whosoever shall keep the whole Law, and yet faileth in one point, he is guilty of all.	10 For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
2:11	11 For he that said, Thou shalt do no lechery [Thou shalt not do lechery] , said also, Thou shalt not slay; that if thou doest no lechery, but thou slayest, thou art made [a] trespasser of the law.	11 For he that said: Thou shalt not commit fornication, [adultery] said also: thou shalt not kill. Though thou shalt do no fornication, [do none adultery] yet if thou kill, thou art a transgressor of the law.	11 For he that said, Thou shalt not commit adultery, said also, Thou shalt not kill. Now though thou doest none adultery, yet if thou killest, thou art a transgressor of the Law.	11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou committest no adultery, yet if thou killest, thou art become a transgressor of the law. [he that: or, that law which]

2:13	13 For why doom without mercy is to him, that doeth no mercy; but mercy above raiseth doom.	13 For there shall be judgement merciless to him that sheweth no mercy, and mercy rejoiceth against judgement:	13 For there shall be condemnation [judgement] merciless to him that sheweth not mercy, and mercy rejoiceth against condemnation. [judgement]	13 For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shown no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment. [rejoiceth: or, glorieth]
2:14	14 My brethren, what shall it profit, if any man say that he hath faith, but he hath not works? whether faith shall be able to save him?	14 What availeth it my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, when he hath no deeds? Can faith save him?	14 What availeth it, my brethren, though a man saith he hath faith, when he hath no works? can that [the] faith save him?	14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man saith he hath faith, and hath not works? can faith save him?
2:15	15 And if a brother or sister be naked, and have need of each day's livelode [of each day’s lifelode] ,	15 If a brother or a sister be naked or destitute of daily food,	15 For if a brother or a sister be naked and destitute of daily food,	15 If a brother or sister is naked, and destitute of daily food,
2:16	16 and if any of you say to them, Go ye in peace [Go in peace] , be ye made hot, and be ye filled; but if ye give not to them those things that be necessary to the body, what shall it profit?	16 and one of you say unto them: Depart in peace, God send you warmness and food: notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body: what helpeth it them?	16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace: warm yourselves, and fill your bellies, notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body, what helpeth it?	16 And one of you saith to them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; but ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?
2:17	17 So also faith, if it hath not works, is dead in itself.	17 Even so faith, if it have no deeds is dead in itself.	17 Even so the faith, if it have no works, is dead in itself.	17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. [alone: Gr. by itself]
2:18	18 But some man shall say, Thou hast faith, and I have works; show thou to me thy faith without works [show thou me thy faith without works] , and I shall show to thee my faith of works.	18 But one shall [Yea and a man might] say: Thou hast faith, and I have deeds: Shew me thy faith by thy deeds: and I will shew thee my faith by my deeds.	18 But some man might say, Thou hast the faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith out of thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.	18 But, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: show me thy faith without thy works, and I will show thee my faith by my works. [without: some copies read, by]
2:19	19 Thou believest, that one God is; thou doest well; and devils believe, and [together] tremble.	19 Believest thou that there is one God? Thou doest well. The devils also believe and tremble.	19 Thou believest that there is one God: thou doest well: the devils also believe it, and tremble.	19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the demons also believe, and tremble.
2:20	20 But wilt thou know, thou vain man, that faith without works is idle?	20 Wilt thou understand o thou vain man, that faith without deeds is dead?	20 But wilt thou understand, O thou vain man, that the faith which is without works, is dead?	20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
2:21	21 Whether Abraham, our father, was not justified of works [Abraham, our father, whether he was not justified of works] , offering Isaac, his son, on the altar?	21 Was not Abraham our father justified of his deeds [thorow works] when he offered Isaac his son upon the altar?	21 Was not Abraham our father justified through works, when he offered Isaac his son upon the altar?	21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
2:22	22 Therefore thou seest, that faith wrought with his works, and his faith was filled of works [and his faith was fulfilled of works] .	22 Thou seest how that faith wrought with in his deeds, and through the deeds was the faith made perfect.	22 Seest thou not that the faith wrought with his works? and through the works was the faith made perfect.	22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? [Seest...: or, Thou seest]
2:23	23 And the scripture was filled, saying, Abraham believed to God, and it was areckoned to him to rightwiseness [+And the scripture is fulfilled, saying, Abraham believed to God, and it was reckoned to him to rightwiseness] , and he was called the friend of God.	23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith: Abraham believed God, and it was reputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the friend of God.	23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the friend of God.	23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.
2:24	24 Ye see that a man is justified of works, and not of faith only.	24 Ye see then how that of deeds a man is justified, and not of faith only.	24 Ye see then how that of works a man is justified, and not of faith only.	24 Ye see then that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
2:25	25 In like manner, whether also Rahab, the whore, was not justified of works, and received the messengers, and sent them out by another way?	25 Likewise also was not Raab the harlot justified when she [justified thorow works, when she] received the messengers, and sent them out another way?	25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified through works, when she had received the messengers, and sent them out another way?	25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way?
2:26	26 For as the body without spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.	26 For as the body, without the spirit is dead, even so faith without deeds is dead.	26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, even so the faith without works is dead.	26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. [spirit: or, breath]
3:1	1 My brethren, do not ye be made many masters, witting that ye take the more doom.	1 My brethren, be not every man a master; Remembering how that we shall receive the more damnation.	1 My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.	1 My brethren, be not many teachers, knowing that we shall receive the greater judgment. [condemnation: or, judgment]
3:2	2 For all we offend in many things. If any man offendeth not in word, this is a perfect man; for also he may lead about all the body with a bridle [forsooth he may with a bridle lead about all the body] .	2 For in many things we sin all. If a man sin not in word, he [the same] is a perfect man and able to tame all the body.	2 For in many things we sin all. If any man sin not in word, he is a perfect man, and able to bridle all the body.	2 For in many things we all offend. If any man stumble not in word, the same is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.
3:3	3 For if we put bridles into horses' mouths, for to consent to us, and we lead about all the body of them.	3 Behold we put bits into the horses' mouths that they should obey us, and we turn about all the body.	3 Behold, we put bits into the horses' mouths, that they should obey us, and we turn about all their body.	3 Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body.
3:4	4 And lo! ships, when they be great, and be driven of strong winds, yet they be borne about of a little rudder, where the moving of the governor will.	4 Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the violence of the governor will:	4 Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small rudder, whither soever the governor listeth.	4 Behold also the ships, which though they are so great, and are driven by fierce winds, yet they are turned about with a very small helm, wherever the pilot willeth.
3:5	5 So also the tongue is but a little member, and raiseth great things. Lo! how little fire burneth a full great wood [Lo! how much fire kindleth how great a wood] .	5 even so the tongue is a little member and boasteth great things. Behold how great a thing a little fire kindleth,	5 Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth of great things: behold, how great a thing a little fire kindleth.	5 Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! [a matter: or, wood]
3:6	6 And our tongue is fire, the university of wickedness. The tongue is ordained in our members, which defouleth all the body; and it is inflamed of hell [and it is inflamed, or set afire, of hell] , and inflameth the wheel of our birth.	6 and the tongue is fire, and a world of wickedness.
