我親愛的弟兄們，請聽：神不是揀選了在世上被認為貧窮的人嗎？這些人卻在信心上富足，而且是承受神的國的人。這國是神應許賜給愛他的人的。然而你們卻侮辱窮人。其實，那些欺壓你們，拉你們上法庭的，不就是富足的人嗎？

人若賺得全世界，卻賠上自己的生命，有甚麼好處呢？人還能用甚麼換回自己的生命呢？

因此，我告訴你們，人的一切罪和褻瀆的話，都可以赦免；可是，褻瀆聖靈就得不著赦免。無論誰說話得罪了人子，還可以赦免；但說話得罪了聖靈的，今生來世都得不著赦免。“你們種好樹就結好果子，種壞樹就結壞果子；憑著果子就能認出樹來。毒蛇所生的啊，你們既然是邪惡的，怎能說出良善的話？因為心中所充滿的，口裡就說出來。

因為你們的手沾滿了血，你們的指頭被罪孽玷污，你們的嘴唇說虛謊的話，你們的舌頭講出兇言。

人所渴望的，就是忠誠；作窮人比作撒謊的人還好。

他常常慷慨借給人；他的後裔必定蒙福。
