James 5:2 in Context — James 5

1 EA ya ahora, oh ricos, llorad aullando por vuestras miserias que os vendrán.

2 Vuestras riquezas están podridas: vuestras ropas están comidas de polilla.

3 Vuestro oro y plata están corrompidos de orín; y su orín os será en testimonio, y comerá del todo vuestras carnes como fuego. Os habéis allegado tesoro para en los postreros días.

4 He aquí, el jornal de los obreros que han segado vuestras tierras, el cual por engaño no les ha sido pagado de vosotros, clama; y los clamores de los que habían segado, han entrado en los oídos del Señor de los ejércitos.
