James 5:3-6
3Your gold and your silver have corroded, and their corrosion will 1serve as a testimony against you and will consume your flesh like fire. It is 2in the last days that you have stored up your treasure! 4Behold, 3the pay of the laborers who mowed your fields, and which has been withheld by you, cries out against you; and 4the outcry of those who did the harvesting has reached the ears of 5the Lord 6of armies. 5You have 78lived for pleasure on the earth and lived luxuriously; you have 9fattened your hearts in 10a day of slaughter. 6You have condemned and 1112put to death 13the righteous person; he offers you no resistance.
