ગુજરાતીયાકૂબનો પત્ર ૨:૬
પણ તમે ગરીબનું અપમાન કર્યું છે. શું શ્રીમંતો તમારા પર જુલમ નથી કરતા? અને ન્યાયાસન આગળ તેઓ તમને ઘસડી લઈ જતા નથી?
हिन्दीयाकूब २:६
पर तुम ने उस कंगाल का अपमान किया। क्या धनी लोग तुम पर अत्याचार नहीं करते और क्या वे ही तुम्हें कचहरियों में घसीट-घसीट कर नहीं ले जाते?

7Don’t they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?
