虚浮的人哪，你愿意知道没有行为的信心是死的吗？

你这虚浮的人哪，你愿意知道没有行为的信心是没有用的吗？

你这虚浮的人哪，你愿意知道没有行为的信心是没有用的吗？

愚蠢的人啊，你们不知道没有行为的信心是死的吗？

虛誕之人歟、豈不知行外之信乃死乎、

虛誕之人乎、爾當知信而不行、其信歸於無有、

無知者乎、爾欲知無行之信乃死乎、

嗚呼、爾亦淺人也已！爾亦知無行之信、乃為空虛無實乎？

You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless?

You foolish person! Do you want proof that faith without good deeds is useless?

Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless?

How foolish! Can’t you see that faith without good deeds is useless?

Senseless person! Are you willing to learn that faith without works is useless?

But are you willing to acknowledge, you foolish person, that faith without works is useless?

But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?

But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith apart from works is barren?

Foolish man! Are you willing to learn that faith without works is useless?

But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?

But would you like evidence, you empty fellow, that faith without works is useless?

But do you want to know, vain man, that faith apart from works is dead?

Those who work their land will have abundant food, but those who chase fantasies have no sense. (niv)

For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. (niv)

As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead. (niv)

In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. (niv)

This is what the Lord says:“ What fault did your ancestors find in me, that they strayed so far from me? They followed worthless idols and became worthless themselves. (niv)

Some have departed from these and have turned to meaningless talk. (niv)

Surely he recognizes deceivers; and when he sees evil, does he not take note?But the witless can no more become wise than a wild donkey’s colt can be born human. (niv)

For there are many rebellious people, full of meaningless talk and deception, especially those of the circumcision group. (niv)

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love. (niv)

See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ. (niv)

Take notice, you senseless ones among the people; you fools, when will you become wise?Does he who fashioned the ear not hear? Does he who formed the eye not see?Does he who disciplines nations not punish? Does he who teaches mankind lack knowledge?The Lord knows all human plans; he knows that they are futile. (niv)

Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless. (niv)

If anyone thinks they are something when they are not, they deceive themselves. (niv)

But someone will ask,“ How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they come?”How foolish! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies. (niv)
