James 5:1-3

New English Translation

Warning to the Rich

5 Come now, you rich! Weep and cry aloud^[a] over the miseries that are coming on you. ² Your riches have rotted and your clothing has become moth-eaten. ³ Your gold and silver have rusted and their rust will be a witness against you. It will consume your flesh like fire. It is in the last days that you have hoarded treasure!^[b]
