James 2:17

17In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

17In the same way, faith also, if it has no works, is dead, being by itself.

17So too, faith, if it does not have works [to back it up], is by itself dead [inoperative and ineffective].

17So too, faith by itself, if it does not result in action, is dead.

17Even so faith, if it have not works, is dead in itself.

17Euen so the faith, if it haue no woorkes, is dead in it selfe.

17Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.

17It is the same with faith. If it doesn’t cause us to do something, it’s dead.

17How we believe in God is also like that. If our faith does not lead us to do good things, then it is not worth anything. It is dead!

17So also faith, if it may not have works, is dead by itself.
