| 2:14 | Братята ми, каква полза има, ако някой твърди, че има вяра, но той няма дела? Как вярата би могла да го спаси? |
| 2:15 | Така че, ако брат или сестра са голи и ежедневно се нуждаят от храна, |
| 2:16 | и ако някой от вас им каже: „Върви си с мир, поддържайте топли и подхранвани,” и въпреки това не им дават нещата, които са необходими на тялото, от каква полза е това? |
| 2:17 | Така дори и вярата, ако няма работи, е мъртъв, сам по себе си. |
| 2:18 | Сега някой може да каже: „Имаш вяра, и имам работи.” Покажи ми вярата си без дела! Но аз ще ви покажа вярата си чрез дела. |
| 2:19 | You believe that there is one God. You do well. But the demons also believe, and they tremble greatly. |
| 2:20 | Така че след това, are you willing to understand, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead? |
| 2:21 | Was not our father Abraham justified by means of works, by offering his son Isaac upon the altar? |
| 2:22 | Do you see that faith was cooperating with his works, and that by means of works faith was brought to fulfillment? |
| 2:23 | And so the Scripture was fulfilled which says: “Abraham believed God, and it was reputed to him unto justice.” And so he was called the friend of God. |
| 2:24 | Do you see that a man is justified by means of works, and not by faith alone? |
| 2:26 | For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead. |
