James 2:11-13

World English Bible

¹¹ For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,”^(A) also said, “Do not commit murder.”^(B) Now if you do not commit adultery but do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law. ¹² So speak and so do as men who are to be judged by the law of freedom. ¹³ For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
