You have hoarded up wealth in these 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! |

| James 5:5 | You have lived delicately on the earth, and taken your pleasure. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter. | Here on earth you have lived self-indulgent and profligate lives.

Notice how eagerly a farmer waits for a valuable crop! He is patient over it till it has received the early and the later rain. | 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; |
| James 5:8 | You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand. | So you also must be patient: keeping up your courage; for the Coming of the Lord is now close at hand. | be patient, ye also; establish your hearts, because the presence of the Lord hath drawn nigh; |

| James 5:10 | Take, brothers, for an example of suffering and of patience, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. | In illustration, brethren, of persecution patiently endured take the Prophets who have spoken as messengers from 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; |
| James 5:11 | Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the Lord in the end, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy. | Remember that we call those blessed who endured what they did. You have also heard of Job's patient endurance, and have seen the issue of the Lord's dealings with him how full of tenderness and pity the Lord is. | 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. |
| James 5:12 | But above all things, my brothers, don't swear, neither by heaven, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath; but let your yes be yes, and your no, no; so that you don't fall into hypocrisy. | But above all things, my brethren, do not swear, either by Heaven or by the earth, or with any other oath. Let your `yes' be simply `yes,' and your `no' be simply `no;' that you may not come under condemnation. | 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. |
| James 5:13 | Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises. | Is one of you suffering? Let him pray. Is any one in good spirits? Let him sing a psalm. | Doth any one suffer evil among you? let him pray; is any of good cheer? let him sing psalms; |

| James 5:15 | and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up.
