TSK · James 2:6

For he hath oppressed and forsaken the poor; He hath violently taken away a house, and he shall not build it up.

He sitteth in the lurking-places of the villages; In the secret places doth he murder the innocent; His eyes are privily set against the helpless.

Thou hast seen [it] ; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: The helpless committeth [himself] unto thee; Thou hast been the helper of the fatherless.

Ye put to shame the counsel of the poor, Because Jehovah is his refuge.

Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker; [And] he that is glad at calamity shall not be unpunished.

If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and the violent taking away of justice and righteousness in a province, marvel not at the matter: for one higher than the high regardeth; and there are higher than they.

Jehovah will enter into judgment with the elders of his people, and the princes thereof: It is ye that have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses:

Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Israel, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have sold the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes--

Forasmuch therefore as ye trample upon the poor, and take exactions from him of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink the wine thereof.

Shall I be pure with wicked balances, and with a bag of deceitful weights?

and oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the sojourner, nor the poor; and let none of you devise evil against his brother in your heart.

And as they spake unto the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came upon them,

But the high priest rose up, and all they that were with him (which is the sect of the Sadducees), and they were filled with jealousy,

But Saul laid waste the church, entering into every house, and dragging men and women committed them to prison.

But when her masters saw that the hope of their gain was gone, they laid hold on Paul and Silas, and dragged them into the marketplace before the rulers,

But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him before the judgment-seat,

and ye have regard to him that weareth the fine clothing, and say, Sit thou here in a good place; and ye say to the poor man, Stand thou there, or sit under my footstool;

Ye have condemned, ye have killed the righteous [one] ; he doth not resist you.
