And you do honour to the man in fair clothing and say, Come here and take this good place; and you say to the poor man, Take up your position there, or be seated at my feet;

If a brother or a sister is without clothing and in need of the day's food,

And one of you says to them, Go in peace, be warm and full of food; but you do not give them the things of which their bodies have need, what profit is there in this?

You have been living delicately on earth and have taken your pleasure; you have made your hearts fat for a day of destruction.

You have given your decision against the upright man and have put him to death. He puts up no fight against you.
