You have hoarded wealth in the last days. 4 Look, the wages that you withheld from the workers who harvested your fields are crying out, and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of Hosts. 5 You have lived luxuriously on the earth and indulged yourselves. You have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. 6 You have condemned and murdered the righteous person, who does not resist you. 7 Therefore, be patient, brothers and sisters, until the coming of the Lord.
