New American Standard Bible NAS
New International Version NIV
22 But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves.
22
Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror;
23
Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror
24 for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was.
24
and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.
25 But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man will be blessed in what he does.
25
But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.
