JAS-5:1 Go to now, [ye] rich men, weep and howl for your

miseries that shalc ome upon [you].

JAS-5:2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are

motheaten.

JAS-5:3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them

shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it

were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

JAS-5:4 Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down

your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the

cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the

Lord of sabaoth.

JAS-5:5 Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton;

ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

JAS-5:6 Ye have condemned [and] killed the just; [and] he doth

not resist you.

JAS-5:7 Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the

Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of

the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the

early and latter rain.

JAS-5:8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming

of the Lord draweth nigh.

JAS-5:9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be

condemned: behold, the judge standeth before the door.

JAS-5:10 Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the

name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of

patience.

JAS-5:11 Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard

of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that

the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.

JAS-5:12 But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither

by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but

let your yea be yea; and [your] nay, nay; lest ye fall into

condemnation.

JAS-5:13 Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry?

let him sing psalms.

JAS-5:14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of

the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil

in the name of the Lord:

JAS-5:15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the

Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they

shall be forgiven him.

JAS-5:16 Confess [your] faults one to another, and pray one for

another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of

a righteous man availeth much.

JAS-5:17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and

he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on

the earth by the space of three years and six months.

JAS-5:18 And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the

earth brought forth her fruit.

JAS-5:19 Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one

convert him;

JAS-5:20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from

the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall

hide a multitude of sins.
