[1] brethren, have not the faith Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons. [2] For if there come unto assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment; [3] And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under footstool: [4] not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts? [5] Hearken, beloved brethren, not God chosen the poor world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him? [6] But have despised the poor. not rich men oppress and draw before the judgment seats? [7] not they blaspheme that worthy name by are called?
