James 5:1-8

1ComeG71 nowG3568, you who are richG4145, weepG2799 and wailG3649 overG1909 theG3588 miseryG5004 to comeG1904 upon youG4771. 2YourG4771 richesG4149 have rottedG4595 andG2532 moths have eatenG1096G4598 yourG4771 clothesG2440. 3YourG4771 goldG5557 andG2532 silverG696 are corrodedG2728. TheirG846 corrosionG2447 willG1510 testifyG3142 against youG4771 andG2532 consumeG5315 yourG4771 fleshG4561 likeG5613 fireG4442.

You have hoarded treasureG2343 inG1722 the lastG2078 daysG2250. 4LookG2400, theG3588 wagesG3408 you withheldG650 from theG3588 workmenG2040 whoG3588 mowedG270 yourG4771 fieldsG5561 are crying outG2896 againstG575 youG4771. TheG3588 criesG995 of theG3588 harvestersG2325 have reachedG1525G1519 theG3588 earsG3775 of the LordG2962 of HostsG4519.

5You have lived onG1909 earthG1093 in luxuryG5171 andG2532 self-indulgenceG4684. You have fattenedG5142 yourG4771 heartsG2588 inG1722 the dayG2250 of slaughterG4967. 6You have condemnedG2613 and murderedG5407 theG3588 righteousG1342, who did not resistG3756G498 youG4771.

7Be patientG3114, thenG3767, brothersG80, untilG2193 theG3588 Lord’sG2962 comingG3952. See howG2400 theG3588 farmerG1092 awaitsG1551 theG3588 preciousG5093 fruitG2590 of theG3588 soilG1093—how patient he isG3114 forG1909G846G2193G2983 the fall andG2532 spring rains.1 8YouG4771, tooG2532, be patientG3114 and strengthenG4741 yourG4771 heartsG2588, becauseG3754 theG3588 Lord’sG2962 comingG3952 is nearG1448.
