2 For if a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your synagogue, and a poor man in filthy clothing also comes in;
3 and you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing, and say, |Sit here in a good place;| and you tell the poor man, |Stand there,| or |Sit by my footstool;|
4 haven't you shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
5 Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn't God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?
6 But you have dishonored the poor man. Don't the rich oppress you, and personally drag you before the courts?
7 Don't they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?
