14 What shall it profit, my brethren, if a man say he hath faith, but hath not works? Shall faith be able to save him? 17 So faith also, if it have not works, is dead in itself. 18 But some man will say: Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without works; and I will shew thee, by works, my faith. 26 For even as the body without the spirit is dead; so also faith without works is dead.
James 2:14,17,18,26

- KJV King James Version
14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? 17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. 18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
- NIV New International Version
14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
18 But someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds."
Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.
26 As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.
- ESV English Standard Version
14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith [ch. 1:22]but does not have works? Can that faith save him? 17 So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
18 But someone will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith [Rom. 3:28;4:6;Heb. 11:33] apart from your works, and I will show you my faith Matt. 7:16,17;Gal. 5:6by my works. 26 For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead.
- NLT New Living Translation
14 What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but don’t show it by your actions? Can that kind of faith save anyone?
17 So you see, faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is dead and useless.
18 Now someone may argue, "Some people have faith; others have good deeds." But I say, "How can you show me your faith if you don’t have good deeds? I will show you my faith by my good deeds."
26 Just as the body is dead without breath,2:26 Or without spirit. so also faith is dead without good works.

14 Matt. 7:21–23, 26; 21:28–32What doesit profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
18 But someone will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Col. 1:6; 1 Thess. 1:3; Heb. 6:10Show me your faith without your works, (Gal. 5:6); James 3:13and I will show you my faith by my works.
26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

14-17 Dear friends, do you think you’ll get anywhere in this if you learn all the right words but never do anything? Does merely talking about faith indicate that a person really has it? For instance, you come upon an old friend dressed in rags and half-starved and say, "Good morning, friend! Be clothed in Christ! Be filled with the Holy Spirit!" and walk off without providing so much as a coat or a cup of soup—where does that get you? Isn’t it obvious that God-talk without God-acts is outrageous nonsense?
18 I can already hear one of you agreeing by saying, "Sounds good. You take care of the faith department, I’ll handle the works department."
Not so fast. You can no more show me your works apart from your faith than I can show you my faith apart from my works. Faith and works, works and faith, fit together hand in glove.
25,26 The same with Rahab, the Jericho harlot. Wasn’t her action in hiding God’s spies and helping them escape—that seamless unity of believing and doing—what counted with God? The very moment you separate body and spirit, you end up with a corpse. Separate faith and works and you get the same thing: a corpse.
