If you give special attention and a good seat to the rich person, but you say to the poor one, “You can stand over there, or else sit on the floor”—well
doesn’t this discrimination show that your judgments are guided by evil motives?
Listen to me, dear brothers and sisters. Hasn’t God chosen the poor in this world to be rich in faith? Aren’t they the ones who will inherit the Kingdom he promised to those who love him?
But you dishonor the poor! Isn’t it the rich who oppress you and drag you into court?
Aren’t they the ones who slander Jesus Christ, whose noble name you bear?
