James 5:5-7

Modern English Version

⁵ You have lived in pleasure on the earth and have been wayward. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter. ⁶ You have condemned and killed the righteous man who does not resist you.

Patience and Prayer

⁷ Therefore be patient, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Notice how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth and is patient with it until he receives the early and late rain.
