Biblical Concordance
| James 2:2 | For if a man comes into your congregation wearing a gold ring and fine clothes, and a poor man in dirty clothes also (kai | καί | adverb) comes in, |
| James 2:3 | and you pay special attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and (kai | καί | conj) say, “You sit here in a good place,” but (kai | καί | conj) to the poor man you say, “You stand over there, or sit down here at my feet,” |
| James 2:4 | have you not made distinctions among yourselves and (kai | καί | conj) become judges with evil motives? |
| James 2:5 | Listen, my dear brothers! Did not God choose those whom the world considers poor to be rich in faith and (kai | καί | conj) to inherit the kingdom, which he promised to those who love him? |
| James 2:6 | But you have dishonored the poor! Is it not the rich who oppress you? And (kai | καί | conj) are not they the ones who drag you into court? |
| James 2:11 | For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also (kai | καί | adverb) said, “Do not commit murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a transgressor of the law. |
| James 2:12 | So speak and (kai | καί | conj) so act as those who are to be judged by the law that brings freedom. |
| James 2:15 | If a brother or sister lacks adequate clothing and (kai | καί | conj) is in need of daily food, |
| James 2:16 | and one of you says to them, “Go in peace; stay warm and (kai | καί | conj) eat your fill,” and yet you do not give them what their body needs, what good is that? |
| James 2:17 | In the same way faith, if it has no works, is dead, since it is by itself. |
| James 2:19 | You believe that God is one; you do well. Even (kai | καί | adverb) the demons believe, and (kai | καί | conj) shudder. |
| James 2:22 | You see that faith was at work along with his works and (kai | καί | conj) that his faith was made complete by his works. |
| James 2:23 | And (kai | καί | conj) the scripture was fulfilled that says, “And Abraham believed God, and (kai | καί | conj) it was credited to him as righteousness,” and (kai | καί | conj) he was called the friend of God. |
| James 2:24 | You see that a person is justified by works and (kai | καί | conj) not by faith alone. |
| James 2:25 | And in the same way was not also (kai | καί | adverb) Rahab the harlot justified by works when she took in the spies and (kai | καί | conj) sent them out by another way? |
| James 2:26 | For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also (kai | καί | adverb) faith devoid of works is dead. |
| James 3:2 | For we all stumble in many ways. If someone does not stumble in what he says, he is a mature individual, able to bridle his whole body as well (kai | καί | adverb). |

| James 3:5 | So also (kai | καί | adverb) is the tongue a small member, yet (kai | καί | conj) it boasts of great things. See how large a forest is set on fire by such a small flame. |
| James 3:6 | And (kai | καί | conj) the tongue is a fire! The tongue is a world of iniquity among our members; it defiles the whole body, sets on fire the course of our life, and (kai | καί | conj) is set on fire by hell. |
| James 3:7 | For every species of beast and (kai | καί | conj) bird, reptile and (kai | καί | conj) sea creature, can be tamed, and (kai | καί | conj) has been tamed by the human species. |
| James 3:9 | With it we bless our Lord and (kai | καί | conj) Father, and (kai | καί | conj) with it we curse those who are made in the likeness of God. |
| James 3:10 | From the same mouth come blessing and (kai | καί | conj) cursing. My brothers, this should not happen. |
| James 3:11 | Does a spring pour forth water from the same opening that is both fresh and (kai | καί | conj) brackish? |
| James 3:13 | Who is wise and (kai | καί | conj) understanding among you? By his exemplary conduct let him show his works done in the gentleness born of wisdom. |
| James 3:14 | But if you have bitter jealousy and (kai | καί | conj) selfish ambition in your heart, do not be arrogant and (kai | καί | conj) tell lies against the truth. |

| James 4:1 | What accounts for the quarrels and (kai | καί | conj) disputes among you? Is it not this — your desires that are at war in your members? |
| James 4:2 | You desire and (kai | καί | conj) do not have; you murder and (kai | καί | conj) envy and (kai | καί | conj) cannot obtain; you fight and (kai | καί | conj) quarrel. You do not have because you do not ask. |
| James 4:3 | You ask and (kai | καί | conj) do not receive because you ask for the wrong reason, that you can spend it on your pleasures. |
| James 4:7 | So submit yourselves to God. Resist the devil and (kai | καί | conj) he will flee from you. |

| James 4:11 | Do not speak against one another, my brothers. Whoever speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks against the law and (kai | καί | conj) judges the law; but if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge of it. |
| James 4:12 | There is only one who is the lawgiver and (kai | καί | conj) judge — the one who is able to save and (kai | καί | conj) to destroy; so who are you to be judging your neighbor? |
| James 4:13 | Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to some city and (kai | καί | conj) spend a year there and (kai | καί | conj) engage in business and (kai | καί | conj) make a profit.” |
| James 4:14 | You have no idea what your life will be like tomorrow. For you are but a mist that appears for a brief moment and (kai | καί | conj) then disappears. |

| James 5:3 | Your gold and (kai | καί | conj) your silver have rusted and (kai | καί | conj) their rust will be a witness against you, and (kai | καί | conj) it will consume your flesh like fire. You have stored up treasure for the last days. |
| James 5:4 | Look, the wages you have held back from the workers who mowed your fields are crying out against you, and (kai | καί | conj) the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of Hosts. |
| James 5:5 | You have lived on the earth in self-indulgence and (kai | καί | conj) luxury. You have fattened your hearts for a day of slaughter. |
| James 5:7 | Be patient, therefore, dear friends, until the coming of the Lord. Note how the farmer waits for the precious harvest of the earth, being patient for it until it receives the early and (kai | καί | conj) latter rains. |
| James 5:8 | You too (kai | καί | adverb) must be patient; strengthen your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is near. |
| James 5:10 | As an example of suffering and (kai | καί | conj) patience, brothers, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. |
