James 1:26 in Context — James 1
24 porque observou a si mesmo e saiu, e logo se esqueceu de como era.
25 Mas aquele que dá atenção à lei perfeita, a da liberdade, e [nela] persevera, não sendo ouvinte que esquece, mas sim praticante da obra, esse tal será bendito no que fizer.
26 Se alguém entre vós pensa ser religioso, mas não controla a sua língua, então engana o seu próprio coração, e a religião desse é vã.
27 A religião pura e não contaminada para com Deus e Pai é esta: visitar os órfãos e as viúvas nas suas aflições, e guardar-se sem a corrupção do mundo.
