Let him that does unrighteously do unrighteously still; and let the filthy make himself filthy still; and let him that is righteous practise righteousness still; and he that is holy, let him be sanctified still.

He that is unjust, let him do unjustly still: and he that is filthya, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him practiceb righteousness still: and he that is holy, let him be sanctified still.

WK Translation Notes

+
a
The words "and he that is filthy" are omitted by some MSS. contrary to the mass. The correct word for filthy is rhypōros as in all the well-known Greek copies.
b
There need be no doubt that dikaiōthēts (righteous) as in the T. R., must give place to the reading dikaiosynēn, which the Revisers follow, as they do with the sense "do" or "practice" righteousness, not be justified or "be righteous" as in the KJV.
