James 5:3-6
3Your gold and your silver have rusted; and their rust will be a witness against you and will consume your flesh like fire. It is 1in the last days that you have stored up your treasure! 4Behold, 2the pay of the laborers who mowed your fields, and which has been withheld by you, cries out against you; and 3the outcry of those who did the harvesting has reached the ears of 4the Lord of 5Sabaoth. 5You have 6lived luxuriously on the earth and led a life of wanton pleasure; you have 7fattened your hearts in 8a day of slaughter. 6You have condemned and 910put to death 11the righteous man; he does not resist you.
