5:1	Do now, ye riche men, wepe ye, yellinge in youre wretchidnessis that schulen come to you.
5:2	Youre richessis ben rotun, and youre clothis ben etun of mouytis.
5:3	Youre gold and siluer hath rustid, and the rust of hem schal be to you in to witnessyng, and schal ete youre fleischis, as fier. Ye han tresourid to you wraththe in the last daies.
5:4	Lo! the hire of youre werke men, that repiden youre feeldis, which is fraudid of you, crieth; and the cry of hem hath entrid in to the eeris of the Lord of oostis.
5:5	Ye han ete on the erthe, and in youre letcheries ye han nurschid youre hertis. In the dai of sleyng ye brouyten,
5:6	and slowen the iust man, and he ayenstood not you.
5:7	Therfor, britheren, be ye pacient, til to the comyng of the Lord. Lo! an erthetilier abidith preciouse fruyt of the erthe, paciently suffrynge, til he resseyue `tymeful and lateful fruyt.

5:12	Bifor alle thingis, my britheren, nyle ye swere, nether bi heuene, nether bi erthe, nethir bi what euere other ooth. But be youre word Yhe, yhe, Nay, nay, that ye fallen not vndir doom.
5:13	And if ony of you is sorewful, preye he with pacient soule, and seie he a salm.
5:14	If ony of you is sijk, lede he in preestis of the chirche, and preie thei for hym, and anoynte with oile in the name of the Lord;
5:15	and the preier of feith schal saue the sijk man, and the Lord schal make hym liyt; and if he be in synnes, thei schulen be foryouun to hym.
5:16	Therfor knouleche ye ech to othere youre synnes, and preye ye ech for othere, that ye be sauyd. For the contynuel preyer of a iust man is myche worth.
5:17	Elye was a deedli man lijk vs, and in preier he preiede, that it schulde not reyne on the erthe, and it reynede not thre yeeris and sixe monethis.
5:18	And eftsoone he preiede, and heuene yaf reyn, and the erthe yaf his fruyt.
5:19	And, britheren, if ony of you errith fro trewthe, and ony conuertith hym,
5:20	he owith to wite, that he that makith a synner to be turned fro the errour of his weye, schal saue the soule of hym fro deth, and keuereth the multitude of synnes.

5:2	Your riches are corrupt, and your garments are moth eaten.
5:3	Your gold and siluer is cankred, and the rust of them shalbe a witnesse against you, and shall eate your flesh, as it were fire. Ye haue heaped vp treasure for the last dayes.
5:4	Behold, the hire of ye labourers, which haue reaped your fieldes (which is of you kept backe by fraude) cryeth, and the cryes of them which haue reaped, are entred into the eares of the Lord of hostes.
5:5	Ye haue liued in pleasure on the earth, and in wantonnes. Ye haue nourished your heartes, as in a day of slaughter.
5:6	Ye haue condemned and haue killed the iust, and he hath not resisted you.
5:7	Be patient therefore, brethren, vnto the comming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman wayteth for the precious fruite of the earth, and hath long patience for it, vntill he receiue the former, and the latter rayne.
5:8	Be ye also patient therefore and settle your hearts: for ye comming of the Lord draweth neere.
5:9	Grudge not one against another, brethren, least ye be condemned: behold, the iudge standeth before the doore.
5:10	Take, my brethren, the Prophets for an ensample of suffering aduersitie, and of long patience, which haue spoken in the Name of the Lord.
5:11	Beholde, we count them blessed which endure. Ye haue heard of the patience of Iob, and haue knowen what ende the Lord made. For the Lord is very pitifull and mercifull.
5:12	But before all thinges, my brethren, sweare not, neither by heauen, nor by earth, nor by any other othe: but let your yea, be yea, and your nay, nay, lest ye fall into condemnation.

5:16	Acknowledge your faultes one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed: for the prayer of a righteous man auaileth much, if it be feruent.
5:17	Helias was a man subiect to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rayne, and it rayned not on the earth for three yeeres and sixe moneths.
5:18	And he prayed againe, and the heauen gaue rayne, and the earth brought forth her fruite.
5:19	Brethren, if any of you hath erred from the trueth, and some man hath conuerted him,
5:20	Let him know that he which hath conuerted the sinner from going astray out of his way, shall saue a soule from death, and shall hide a multitude of sinnes.


5:1	Come now, you rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that will come upon you!
5:2	Your riches are corrupted, and your clothes are moth eaten.
5:3	Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like it was fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days.

5:5	You have lived on the earth in pleasure and luxury; you have fattened your hearts as in a day of slaughter.
5:6	You have condemned and murdered the just; and he does not resist you.
5:7	Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, and waits patiently for it until he receives the early and latter rain.
5:8	You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord draws near.
5:9	Do not hold a grudge against one another, brethren, lest you be condemned. Behold, the Judge is standing at the door!
5:10	My brethren, take the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, as an example of suffering affliction and of patience.
5:11	Behold, we count them blessed who endure. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and seen the end intended by the Lord, that the Lord is very compassionate and merciful.
5:12	But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your "Yes" be "Yes," and your "No," "No," lest you fall into condemnation.
5:13	Is anyone among you afflicted? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms.
5:14	Is anyone 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.
5:15	And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
5:16	Confess your faults to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
5:17	Elijah was a man subject to passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months.
5:18	And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced her fruit.
5:19	Brethren, if any of you wanders from the truth, and someone converts him
5:20	let him know that he who converts a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.
