But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

Verse 25 is found in chapter 1 of James. The word must be put into practice and not merely heard. The image of the mirror illustrates the self-deception of someone who listens without obeying. Genuine religion is expressed through self-control, care for the vulnerable, and purity from the world.

Wer aber durchschaut in das vollkommene Gesetz der Freiheit und darin beharrt und ist nicht ein vergeßlicher Hörer, sondern ein Täter, der wird selig sein in seiner Tat.
Mas el que hubiere mirado atentamente en la perfecta ley, que es la de la libertad, y perseverado en ella, no siendo oidor olvidadizo, sino hacedor de la obra, este tal será bienaventurado en su hecho.
Pero el que mira atentamente la ley perfecta, la de la libertad, y permanece en ella, sin ser un oyente olvidadizo sino uno que pone manos a la obra, será bienaventurado en lo que hace.
Mais celui qui aura plongé les regards dans la loi parfaite, la loi de la liberté, et qui aura persévéré, n'étant pas un auditeur oublieux, mais se mettant à l'oeuvre, celui-là sera heureux dans son activité.
Ma chi avrà riguardato bene addentro nella legge perfetta, che è la legge della libertà, e sarà perseverato; esso, non essendo uditore dimentichevole, ma facitor dell’opera, sarà beato nel suo operare.
Aquele, porém, que atenta bem para a lei perfeita da liberdade, e nisso persevera, não sendo ouvinte esquecidiço, mas fazedor da obra, este tal será bem-aventurado no seu feito.
惟有查看那完美、使人自由的律法,並且時常遵守的,他不是聽了就忘,而是切實行出來,這樣的人在所行的事上必然蒙福。
