 # it is by works that a man is justified, and not only by faith
 
-"actions and faith are what justify a person, and not only faith." James speaks of works as if they were objects to obtain. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
+This can be restated to remove the abstract nouns "faith" and "works." This can also be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "God justifies a man because he does what is pleasing to God, and not just because he believes in God" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
