3 Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. (A)You have heaped up treasure in the last days. 4 Indeed (B)the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and (C)the cries of the reapers have reached the ears of the Lord of [a]Sabaoth. 5 You have lived on the earth in pleasure and [b]luxury; you have [c]fattened your hearts [d]as in a day of slaughter.
