NASB
"Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?"
— James 2:21, NASB
“Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?”
“Was not Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son upon the altar? ”
“Wasn't Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?”
“Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar?”
“Was not Abraham our father justified by works, offering up Isaac his son upon the altar?”
“Was not the righteousness of Abraham our father judged by his works, when he made an offering of Isaac his son on the altar?”
“Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?”
But someone may well say, "You have faith and I have works; show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith by my works."
You believe that God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and shudder.
But are you willing to recognize, you foolish fellow, that faith without works is useless?
Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?
You see that faith was working with his works, and as a result of the works, faith was perfected;
and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "AND ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD, AND IT WAS RECKONED TO HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS," and he was called the friend of God.
You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.
