their pride, 7 that the poore hearing the miserable ende
of the riche, 8 may patiently beare afflictions, 11 as Iob
did, 14 euen in their distresses.
1 Go note to nowe, ye rich men: weepe, and howle
for your miseries that shall come vpon you.
2 Your riches are corrupt, and your garments
are moth eaten.
3 Your gold and siluer is cankred, & 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.
4 Behold, the hire of þe; 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 note eares of the
Lord of hostes.
5 Ye haue liued in pleasure on the earth, and
in wantonnes. Ye haue note nourished your heartes,
as in a note day of slaughter.
6 Ye haue condemned and haue killed the
iust, and he hath not resisted you.
7 noteBe patient therefore, brethren, vnto the
comming of the Lord. noteBehold, 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.
8 Be ye also patient therefore and settle your
hearts: for þe; comming of the Lord draweth nere.

Swearing forbidden.
standeth before the doore.
10 noteTake, my brethren, the Prophets for an
ensample of suffering aduersitie, and of long patience,
which haue spoken in the Name of the
Lord.
11 Beholde, we count them blessed which endure.
Ye haue heard of the patience of Iob, and
haue knowen what note ende the Lord made. For the
Lord is very pitifull and mercifull.
12 noteBut before all thinges, my brethren,
note sweare not, neither by heauen, nor by earth, nor
by any other othe: but let note your yea, be yea, and
your nay, nay, lest ye fall into condemnation.
13 noteIs any among you afflicted? Let him pray.
Is any merie? Let him sing.
14 noteIs any sicke among you? Let him call for
the Elders of the Church, and let them pray for
him, and anoynt him with note note oyle in the note Name
of the Lord.
15 And the prayer of faith shall saue the sicke,
and the Lord shall raise him vp: and if he haue
committed note sinnes, they shalbe forgiuen him.
16 noteAcknowledge your faultes one to another,
and pray one for another, that ye may be
healed: note for the prayer of a righteous man auaileth
much, if it be feruent.
17 noteHelias 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.
18 And he prayed againe, and the heauen gaue
rayne, and the earth brought forth her fruite.
19 noteBrethren, note if any of you hath erred
from the trueth, and some man hath note conuerted
him,
20 Let him knowe that he which hath conuerted
the sinner from going astray out of his way,
shall saue a soule from death, and shal hide a multitude
of sinnes.
