Chapter 5

1Come now, you rich, weep and wail over your impending miseries.
2Your wealth has rotted away, your clothes have become moth-eaten,
3your gold and silver have corroded, and that corrosion will be a testimony against you; it will devour your flesh like a fire. You have stored up treasure for the last days.
4Behold, the wages you withheld from the workers who harvested your fields are crying aloud, and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts.
5You have lived on earth in luxury and pleasure; you have fattened your hearts for the day of slaughter.
6You have condemned; you have murdered the righteous one; he offers you no resistance.
