James 5:1-6
A Warning to the Rich

1 Go to now, [ye] rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon [you].

1:

2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.

2:

3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

3:

4 Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.

4:

5 Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

5:

6 Ye have condemned [and] killed the just; [and] he doth not resist you.

6:
