11 For he that said, Do not commit
aadultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no
adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
12 So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall
be judged by the law of aliberty.
13 For he shall have
ajudgment without bmercy, that hath
shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against
judgmenta.

13a mercy rejoiceth against
judgment And how is it that mercy rejoices against judgment but by
the fact that as we do forgive others and as we so treat others like unto
ourselves; so have we obtained mercy and forgivness ourselves. For if we would
be forgiven, we must forgive. And if we would obtain mercy, we must ourselves
so show mercy and fair treatment unto others. In short, if ye would obtain
mercy then ye must be merciful.
