James 5:1-8

1ComeG1904 nowG3568, ye richG4145, weepG2799 and howl for your miseries that are comingG1904 upon you. 2Your richesG4149 are corrupted, and your garmentsG2440 are moth-eaten. 3Your goldG5557 and your silverG696 areG1510 rusted; and their rust shall beG1510 for a testimonyG3142 against you, and shall eatG2068 your fleshG4561 as fireG4442. Ye have laid up your treasure in the lastG2078 daysG2250. 4BeholdG2400, the hire of the laborers who mowed your fieldsG5561, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth out: and the criesG2896 of them that reapedG2325 have enteredG1525 into the earsG3775 of the LordG2962 of Sabaoth. 5Ye have lived delicately on the earthG1093, and taken your pleasure; ye have nourishedG5142 your heartsG2588 in a dayG2250 of slaughterG4967. 6Ye have condemned, ye have killed the righteousG1342 oneG3588; he doth not resist you.

7Be patientG3114 thereforeG3767, brethren, until the coming of the LordG2962. BeholdG2400, the husbandman waiteth for the preciousG5093 fruitG2590 of the earthG1093, being patientG3114 over it, until it receiveG2983 the early and latter rain. 8Be ye alsoG2532 patientG3114; establish your heartsG2588: for the coming of the LordG2962 is at hand.
