You have heaped up treasure in the last days.G5216G5557G2532G696G2728G2532G2447G846G2071G3142G1519G5213G2532G5315G5216G4561G5613G4442G2343G1722G2078G22504Indeed the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the reapers have reached the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.G2400G3408G2040G3588G270G5216G5561G3588G575G5216G650G2896G2532G995G2325G1525G1519G3775G2962G45195You have lived on the earth in pleasure and luxury; you have fattened your hearts as in a day of slaughter.G5171G1909G1093G2532G4684G5142G5216G2588G5613G1722G2250G49676You have condemned, you have murdered the just; he does not resist you.G2613G5407G1342G498G3756G498G5213
Be Patient and Persevering
7Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain.G3114G3767G80G2193G3952G2962G2400G1092G1551G5093G2590G1093G3114G1909G846G2193G302G2983G4406G2532G3797G52058You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.G3114G5210G2532G3114G4741G5216G2588G3754G3952G2962G14489Do not grumble against one another, brethren, lest you be condemned. Behold, the Judge is standing at the door!G4727G3361G2596G240G80G3363G2632G2400G2923G2476G4253G237410My brethren, take the prophets, who spoke in the name of the Lord, as an example of suffering and patience.G2983G3450G80G4396G3739G2980G3686G2962G5262G2552G2532G311511Indeed we count them blessed who endure. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and seen the end intended by the Lord—that the Lord is very compassionate and merciful.G2400G3106G5278G191G5281G2492G2532G1492G5056G2962G3754G2962G2076G4184G2532G362912But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your "Yes," be "Yes," and your "No," "No," lest you fall into judgment.G1161G4253G3956G3450G80G3660G3361G3383G3772G3383G1093G3383G5100G243G3727G1161G2277G5216G3483G2277G3483G2532G3756G3756G3363G4098G1519G5272
