New Testament

James 1:25-27 New English Translation (NET)

25. But the one who peers into the perfect law of liberty and fixes his attention there, and does not become a forgetful listener but one who lives it out – he will be blessed in what he does.

26. If someone thinks he is religious yet does not bridle his tongue, and so deceives his heart, his religion is futile.

27. Pure and undefiled religion before God the Father is this: to care for orphans and widows in their misfortune and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
