| | | 4) | An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin. |

| 3) | And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, |
4) | They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. |
5) | Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? |
6) | This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. |
7) | So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. |
8) | And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. |
9) | And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. |
10) | When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? |
11) | She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more. |

| 1) | My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons. |
2) | For if there come unto your 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 unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool: |
4) | Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts? |
5) | Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him? |
6) | But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats? |
7) | Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called? |
8) | If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: |
9) | But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. |
