for behold, your works have been the works of righteousness
upon the face of the earth?

And now my beloved brethren, I say unto you,
can ye withstand these sayings;
yea, can ye lay aside these things,
and trample the Holy One under your feet;
yea, can ye be puffed up in the pride of your hearts;
yea, will ye still persist in the wearing of costly apparel
and setting your hearts upon the vain things of the world, upon your riches?

Yea, and will you persist in turning your backs upon the poor, and the needy,
and in withholding your substance from them?
