Amplified Bible 
-
|Jacques 2:11| For He who said, "Do not commit adultery ," also said, "Do not murder ." Now if you do not commit adultery, but you murder, you have become6 guilty of transgressing the[entire] Law.
-
|Jacques 2:12| Speak and act[consistently] as people who are going to be judged by the law of liberty[that moral law that frees obedient Christians from the bondage of sin] .
-
|Jacques 2:13| For judgment will be merciless to one who has shown no mercy; but[to the one who has shown mercy] mercy triumphs[victoriously] over judgment.

Faith and Works
-
|Jacques 2:14| What is the benefit, my fellow believers, if someone claims to have faith but has no[good] works[as evidence] ? Can that[kind of] faith save him?[No, a mere claim of faith is not sufficient—genuine faith produces good works.]
-
|Jacques 2:15| If a brother or sister is without[adequate] clothing and lacks[enough] food for each day,
-
|Jacques 2:16| and one of you says to them, "Go in peace[with my blessing] ,[keep] warm and feed yourselves," but he does not give them the necessities for the body, what good does that do?
-
|Jacques 2:17| So too, faith, if it does not have works[to back it up] , is by itself dead[inoperative and ineffective] .
-
|Jacques 2:18| But someone may say, "You[claim to] have faith and I have[good] works; show me your[alleged] faith without the works[if you can] , and I will show you my faith by my works[that is, by what I do] ."
-
|Jacques 2:19| You believe that7 God is one; you do well[to believe that] . The demons also believe[that] , and shudder and bristle[in awe-filled terror—they have seen His wrath] !
-
|Jacques 2:20| But are you willing to recognize, you foolish[spiritually shallow] person, that faith without[good] works is useless?
