James 5:2

1 Come now, you who are rich, weep and wail over the misery to come upon you.

Your riches have rotted and moths have eaten your clothes.

3 Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and consume your flesh like fire. You have hoarded treasure in the last days.

4 Look, the wages you withheld from the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of Hosts.
