| James 5:1 | Come now, you men of wealth, give yourselves to weeping and crying because of the bitter troubles which are coming to you. | Go, now, ye rich! weep, howling over your miseries that are coming upon [you]; | Come now, ye rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you. |
| James 5:2 | Your wealth is unclean and insects have made holes in your clothing. | your riches have rotted, and your garments have become moth-eaten; | Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten. |
| James 5:3 | Your gold and your silver are wasted and their waste will be a witness against you, burning into your flesh. You have put by your store in the last days. | your gold and silver have rotted, and the rust of them for a testimony shall be to you, and shall eat your flesh as fire. Ye made treasure in the last days! | Your gold and your silver are rusted; and their rust shall be for a testimony against you, and shall eat your flesh as fire. Ye have laid up your treasure in the last days. |
| James 5:4 | See, the money which you falsely kept back from the workers cutting the grass in your field, is crying out against you; and the cries of those who took in your grain have come to the ears of the Lord of armies. | lo, the reward of the workmen, of those who in-gathered your fields, which hath been fraudulently kept back by you doth cry out, and the exclamations of those who did reap into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth have entered; | Behold, the hire of the laborers who mowed your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth out: and the cries of them that reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth. |
| James 5:5 | You have been living delicately on earth and have taken your pleasure; you have made your hearts fat for a day of destruction. | ye did live in luxury upon the earth, and were wanton; ye did nourish your hearts, as in a day of slaughter; | Ye have lived delicately on the earth, and taken your pleasure; ye have nourished your hearts in a day of slaughter. |
| James 5:6 | You have given your decision against the upright man and have put him to death. He puts up no fight against you. | ye did condemn ye did murder the righteous one, he doth not resist you. | Ye have condemned, ye have killed the righteous [one]; he doth not resist you. |
| James 5:7 | Go on waiting calmly, my brothers, till the coming of the Lord, like the farmer waiting for the good fruit of the earth till the early and late rains have come. | Be patient, then, brethren, till the presence of the Lord; lo, the husbandman doth expect the precious fruit of the earth, being patient for it, till he may receive rain early and latter; | Be patient therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receive the early and latter rain. |
| James 5:8 | Be as calm in your waiting; let your hearts be strong: because the coming of the Lord is near. | be patient, ye also; establish your hearts, because the presence of the Lord hath drawn nigh; | Be ye also patient; establish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord is at hand. |
| James 5:9 | Say no hard things against one another, brothers, so that you will not be judged; see, the judge is waiting at the doors. | murmur not against one another, brethren, that ye may not be condemned; lo, the Judge before the door hath stood. | Murmur not, brethren, one against another, that ye be not judged: behold, the judge standeth before the doors. |
| James 5:10 | Take as an example of pain nobly undergone and of strength in trouble, the prophets who gave to men the words of the Lord. | An example take ye of the suffering of evil, my brethren, and of the patience, the prophets who did speak in the name of the Lord; | Take, brethren, for an example of suffering and of patience, the prophets who spake in the name of the Lord. |
| James 5:11 | We say that those men who have gone through pain are happy: you have the story of Job and the troubles through which he went and have seen that the Lord was full of pity and mercy in the end. | lo, we call happy those who are enduring; the endurance of Job ye heard of, and the end of the Lord ye have seen, that very compassionate is the Lord, and pitying. | Behold, we call them blessed that endured: ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord, how that the Lord is full of pity, and merciful. |
| James 5:12 | But most of all, my brothers, do not take oaths, not by the heaven, or by the earth, or by any other thing: but let your Yes be Yes, and your No be No: so that you may not be judged. | And before all things, my brethren, do not swear, neither by the heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath, and let your Yes be Yes, and the No, No; that under judgment ye may not fall. | But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by the heaven, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath: but let your yea be yea, and your nay, nay; that ye fall not under judgment. |
| James 5:13 | Is anyone among you in trouble? let him say prayers. Is anyone glad? let him make a song of praise. | Doth any one suffer evil among you? let him pray; is any of good cheer? let him sing psalms; | Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praise. |
| James 5:14 | Is anyone among you ill? let him send for the rulers of the church; and let them say prayers over him, putting oil on him in the name of the Lord. | is any infirm among you? let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, having anointed him with oil, in the name of the Lord, | Is any among you sick? 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: |
| James 5:15 | And by the prayer of faith the man who is ill will be made well, and he will be lifted up by the Lord, and for any sin which he has done he will have forgiveness. | and the prayer of the faith shall save the distressed one, and the Lord shall raise him up, and if sins he may have committed, they shall be forgiven to him. | and the prayer of faith shall save him that is sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, it shall be forgiven him. |
| James 5:16 | So then, make a statement of your sins to one another, and say prayers for one another so that you may be made well. The prayer of a good man is full of power in its working. | Be confessing to one another the trespasses, and be praying for one another, that ye may be healed; very strong is a working supplication of a righteous man; | Confess therefore your sins one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The supplication of a righteous man availeth much in its working. |
| James 5:17 | Elijah was a man of flesh and blood as we are, and he made a strong prayer that there might be no rain; and there was no rain on the earth for three years and six months. | Elijah was a man like affected as we, and with prayer he did pray not to rain, and it did not rain upon the land three years and six months; | Elijah was a man of like passions with us, and he prayed fervently that it might not rain; and it rained not on the earth for three years and six months. |
| James 5:18 | And he made another prayer, and the heaven sent down rain and the earth gave her fruit. | and again he did pray, and the heaven did give rain, and the land did bring forth her fruit. | And he prayed again; and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit. |
| James 5:19 | My brothers, if one of you has gone out of the way of the true faith and another has made him see his error, | Brethren, if any among you may go astray from the truth, and any one may turn him back, | My brethren, if any among you err from the truth, and one convert him; |
| James 5:20 | Be certain that he through whom a sinner has been turned from the error of his way, keeps a soul from death and is the cause of forgiveness for sins without number. | let him know that he who did turn back a sinner from the straying of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall cover a multitude of sins. | let him know, that he who converteth a sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall cover a multitude of sins. |
