5 Listen, my beloved brethren: aHas God not chosen the poor of this world to be brich in faith and heirs of the kingdom cwhich He promised to those who love Him?
6 But ayou have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you band drag you into the courts?
7 Do they not blaspheme that noble name by which you are acalled?
8 If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, a“You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you do well;
9 but if you1 show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as atransgressors.
