Warning to the Rich

1Come now, lyou rich, weep and howl for the mmiseries that are coming upon you. 2 nYour riches have rotted and oyour garments are moth-eaten. 3Your gold and silver have corroded, and their corrosion will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. pYou have laid up treasure qin the last days. 4Behold, rthe wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, are crying out against you, and sthe cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of tthe Lord of hosts. 5 uYou have lived on the earth in luxury and vin self-indulgence. You have fattened your hearts in wa day of slaughter. 6You have condemned and xmurdered ythe righteous person. He does not resist you.
