James 5:1

[The following passage is about the unrighteous rich and is related to the passage in James 2:3–6. The expression "Listen now" is found only here and in James 4:13 and gives a sharp warning.]
Listen now (pay attention), you who are rich!
Weep and wail over the misfortunes that are coming upon you.
