James 5:4-6
4Behold, 1the pay of the laborers who mowed your fields, and which has been withheld by you, cries out against you; and 2the outcry of those who did the harvesting has reached the ears of 3the Lord 4of armies. 5You have 56lived for pleasure on the earth and lived luxuriously; you have 7fattened your hearts in 8a day of slaughter. 6You have condemned and 910put to death 11the righteous person; he offers you no resistance.
