James 5:4-6
New Testament for Everyone
4 Look: you cheated the workers who mowed your fields by keeping back their wages, and those wages are crying out! The cries of the farm workers have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. 5 You have lived off the fat of the land, in the lap of luxury. You have fattened your own hearts on a day of slaughter. 6 You have condemned the Righteous One and killed him, and he doesn’t resist you.
