James 2:5-7

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵ Hearken, my dearest brethren: hath not God chosen the poor in this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which God hath promised to them that love him?

⁶ But you have dishonoured the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you by might? and do not they draw you before the judgment seats?

⁷ Do not they blaspheme the good name that is invoked upon you?
