The POOR & The RICH
2For if a man comes into your assembly with
a gold ring and dressed in fine clothes,
and there also comes in a poor man in dirty
clothes,3and you pay special attention to
the one who is wearing the fine clothes,
and say, “You sit here in a good place,”
and you say to the poor man, “You stand
over there, or sit down by my footstool,”

The POOR & The RICH
1 Look here, you rich people: Weep and groan
with anguish because of all the terrible
troubles ahead of you.2Your wealth is
rotting away, and your fine clothes are
moth-eaten rags.3Your gold and silver have
become worthless…

The POOR & The RICH
4For listen! Hear the cries of the field
workers whom you have cheated of their pay.
The wages you held back cry out against
you. The cries of those who harvest your
fields have reached the ears of the LORD of
Heaven’s Armies.
