Listen to Giacomo 2:4
4 non fate voi una differenza nella vostra mente, e non diventate giudici dai pensieri malvagi?

Giacomo 2:4 Meaning and Commentary

James 2:4

Are ye not then partial in yourselves
That is, guilty of such partiality as must appear to yourselves, and your own consciences must accuse you of; or do not ye distinguish, or make a difference among yourselves, by such a conduct, towards the rich and the poor:

and are become judges of evil thoughts;
or "are distinguishers by evil thoughts"; that is, make a distinction between the rich and the poor, by an evil way of thinking, that one is better than the other, and to be preferred before him.

Giacomo 2:4 In-Context

2 Perché, se nella vostra raunanza entra un uomo con l’anello d’oro, vestito splendidamente, e v’entra pure un povero vestito malamente,
3 e voi avete riguardo a quello che veste splendidamente e gli dite: Tu, siedi qui in un posto onorevole; e al povero dite: Tu, stattene là in piè, o siedi appiè del mio sgabello,
4 non fate voi una differenza nella vostra mente, e non diventate giudici dai pensieri malvagi?
5 Ascoltate, fratelli miei diletti: Iddio non ha egli scelto quei che sono poveri secondo il mondo perché siano ricchi in fede ed eredi del Regno che ha promesso a coloro che l’amano?
6 Ma voi avete disprezzato il povero! Non son forse i ricchi quelli che vi opprimono e che vi traggono ai tribunali?
