The Letter of Saint James 2: 1-9

2:1	O'u mau kaikunane, within the glorious faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, do not choose to show favoritism toward persons.
2:2	For if a man has entered your assembly having a gold ring and splendid apparel, and if a poor man has also entered, in dirty clothing,
2:3	and if you are then attentive to the one who is clothed in excellent apparel, so that you say to him, “You may sit in this good place,” but you say to the poor man, “You stand over there,” a i ʻole, “Sit below my footstool,”
2:4	are you not judging within yourselves, and have you not become judges with unjust thoughts?
2:5	My most beloved brothers, hoʻolohe. Has not God chosen the poor in this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom that God has promised to those who love him?
2:6	But you have dishonored the poor. Are not the rich the ones who oppress you through power? And are not they the ones who drag you to judgment?
2:7	Are not they the ones who blaspheme the good name which has been invoked over you?
2:8	So if you perfect the regal law, e like me ka Palapala Hemolele, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” then you do well.
2:9	But if you show favoritism to persons, then you commit a sin, having been convicted again by the law as transgressors.
2:10	Now whoever has observed the whole law, yet who offends in one matter, has become guilty of all.
2:11	For he who said, “You shall not commit adultery,” also said, “You shall not kill.” So if you do not commit adultery, but you kill, you have become a transgressor of the law.
2:12	So speak and act just as you are beginning to be judged, by the law of liberty.
2:13	For judgment is without mercy toward him who has not shown mercy. But mercy exalts itself above judgment.
2:14	O'u mau kaikunane, He aha ka pōmaikaʻi inā ʻōlelo kekahi he manaʻoʻiʻo, aka, aole ana hana? Pehea e hiki ai i ka manaoio ke hoopakele iaia?
2:15	No laila, inā he kapa ʻole ke kaikunāne a kaikuahine paha, a nele i ka ʻai i kēlā me kēia lā,
2:16	a ina e olelo aku kekahi o oukou ia lakou: “E hele me ka maluhia, e mahana a hānai,” aole nae e haawi aku ia lakou i na mea e pono ai ke kino, heaha keia pomaikai?
2:17	Pela ka manaoio, inā ʻaʻohe ona hana, ua make, i loko a nona iho.
2:18	I kēia manawa e ʻōlelo paha kekahi: “He manaoio kou, a he mau hana ka'u. E hoike mai oe ia'u i kou manaoio me ka hana ole! Aka, e hoike aku au ia oe i ko'u manaoio ma na hana.
2:19	Manaʻo ʻoe hoʻokahi Akua. Hana maikaʻi ʻoe. Aka, ua manaoio no na daimonio, a haalulu nui lakou.

Ka Euanelio Hemolele Wahi a Mareko 8: 27-33

8:27	And Jesus departed with his disciples into the towns of Caesarea Philippi. And on the way, he questioned his disciples, i mai la ia lakou, “Who do men say that I am?”
8:28	And they answered him by saying: “ʻO Ioane Bapetite, kekahi o Elia, still others perhaps one of the prophets.”
8:29	A laila ʻōlelo ʻo ia iā lākou, “Yet truly, who do you say that I am?” Peter responded by saying to him, “You are the Christ.”
8:30	And he admonished them, not to tell anyone about him.
8:31	And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and by the high priests, a me ka poe kakauolelo, a e pepehiia, and after three days rise again.
8:32	And he spoke the word openly. A o Petero, e lawe ana ia ia ma kahi aoao, began to correct him.
8:33	And turning away and looking at his disciples, he admonished Peter, e olelo ana, “E hele ma hope oʻu, Satana, for you do not prefer the things that are of God, but the things that are of men.”
