3Your goldG5557 and your silverG696 have rustedG2728; and their rustG2447 will be a witnessG3142 against you and will consumeG2068 your fleshG4561 likeG5613 fireG4442. It is 1in the lastG2078 daysG2250 that you have storedG2343 up your treasureG2343! 4BeholdG2400, 2the payG3408 of the laborersG2040 who mowedG270 your fieldsG5561, and which has been withheldG879 by you, criesG2896 out against you; and 3the outcryG995 of thoseG3588 who didG2325 the harvestingG2325 has reachedG1525 the earsG3775 of 4the LordG2962 of 5SabaothG4519. 5You have 6livedG5171 luxuriouslyG5171 on the earthG1093 and ledG4684 a lifeG4684 of wantonG4684 pleasureG4684; you have 7fattenedG5142 your heartsG2588 in 8a dayG2250 of slaughterG4967. 6You have condemnedG2613 and 910putG5407 to deathG5407 11the righteousG1342 man; he does not resistG498 you.
