¹ My brethren, do not hold with acceptance of faces the faith of the glory of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.² For if there come into your congregation a man who hath rings of gold or beautiful vestments, and there come in a poor man in sordid vestments,³ and you look upon him who clothed in beautiful vestments, and say to him, Sit is here well; and you say to the poor man, Stand thou there, or, Sit thou here before the stool of our feet;⁴ behold, are you not divided in yourselves, and become separaters for evil reasons ?⁵ Listen, my beloved brethren: Hath not Aloha chosen the poor of the world, but rich in faith, to be heirs in that kingdom which Aloha hath promised to them who love him ?⁶ But you have despised the poor. Behold, are not the rich uprisen against you ? and do they not drag you to the house of judgment?⁷ Do they not blaspheme against that Good Name which is pronounced upon you ?

⁸ And if the law of Aloha in this you accomplish, as it is written, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, you do well;⁹ but if you accept persons, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors against the law.¹⁰ For he who keepeth the whole law, and in one offendeth, of the whole LAW he is guilty.¹¹ For he who hath said, Thou shalt not commit adultery, is he who hath said, Thou shalt not steal; but if thou do not commit adultery, yet steal, thou hast become a transgressor against the LAW.¹² So speak and so act, as those who by the law of liberty are to be judged.¹³ For judgment is to be without mercy, upon him who hath not done mercy. Be you exalted by mercy over judgment.
