Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats? 7) Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called? 8) If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: 9) But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. 10) For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.(KJV)

1 Pet 1:17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear: (KJV)
