James 2:14-26 Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone claims to have faith but has no actions to prove it? Is such “faith” able to save him?

15 
Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food,

16 
and someone says to him, “Shalom! Keep warm and eat hearty!” without giving him what he needs, what good does it do? 

17 Thus, faith by itself, unaccompanied by actions, is dead.

18 But someone will say that you have faith and I have actions. Show me this faith of yours without the actions, and I will show you my faith by my actions! 

19 You believe that “God is one”? Good for you! The demons believe it too — the thought makes them shudder with fear!

20 But, foolish fellow, do you want to be shown that such “faith” apart from actions is barren? 

21 
Wasn’t Avraham avinu declared righteous because of actions when he offered up his son Yitz’chak on the altar? 

22 You see that his faith worked with his actions; by the actions the faith was made complete; 

23 and the passage of the Tanakh was fulfilled which says, “Avraham had faith in God, and it was credited to his account as righteousness.”[b]
He was even called God’s friend.

24 You see that a person is declared righteous because of actions and not because of faith alone.

25 Likewise, wasn’t Rachav the prostitute also declared righteous because of actions when she welcomed the messengers and sent them out by another route? 
26 
Indeed, just as the body without a spirit is dead, so too faith without actions is dead.
