And let endurance have [its] perfect effect, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking in nothing.

have you not made distinctions among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?

But you have dishonored the poor! Are not the rich exploiting you and they themselves dragging you into the courts?

For the one who said "Do not commit adultery" also said "Do not murder." Now if you do not commit adultery but you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

What [is] the benefit, my brothers, if someone says [that he] has faith but does not have works? That faith [is] not able to save him, [is it]?

Thus also faith, if it does not have works, is dead by itself.

But someone will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.

But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and tell lies against the truth.

You desire and do not have; you murder and are filled with envy, and are not able to obtain; you fight and quarrel. You do not have because you do not ask.

Your gold and silver have become corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you, and it will consume your flesh like fire. You have stored up treasure in the last days.

Behold, the wages that were held back by you from the workers who reap your fields cry out, and the cries of the reapers have come to the ears of the Lord of hosts.

You have lived self-indulgently on the earth and have lived luxuriously. You have fattened your hearts in the day of slaughter.

You have condemned, you have murdered the righteous [person]; he does not resist you.

Behold, we consider blessed those who have endured. You have heard about the patient endurance of Job, and you saw the outcome from the Lord, that the Lord is compassionate and merciful.
