5:1 嗐，你们富足的人，应当为那将要临到你们的悲惨哭泣号啕。
Come now, you rich, weep, howling over your miseries, which are coming upon you!
5:2 你们的财物坏了，衣服也被虫子咬了。
Your riches have rotted and your garments have become moth-eaten;
5:3 你们的金银都锈蚀了，这锈要作见证，定你们的罪，又要像火一样，吃你们的肉。你们在末后的日子积蓄财宝。
Your gold and your silver have rusted, and their rust will be a testimony against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have stored up treasure in the last days.
5:4 看哪，工人收割你们的田地，你们扣下他们的工钱，这工钱为他们喊冤；并且那收割之人的呼声，已经入了万军之主的耳中。
Behold, the wages of the workmen who mowed your fields, which have been withheld by you, cry out; and the cries of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of hosts.
5:5 你们活在地上奢华宴乐；当宰杀的日子，竟养肥了你们的心。
You have lived luxuriously on the earth and have given yourselves to pleasure; you have nourished your hearts in a day of slaughter.
5:6 你们定了义人的罪，把他杀害，他没有敌挡你们。
You condemned, you murdered the righteous; he does not resist you.
5:7 所以，弟兄们，你们要恒忍，直到主的来临。看哪，农夫等候地里宝贵的出产，为此恒忍，直到得了秋雨春雨。
Therefore be long-suffering, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer eagerly awaits the precious fruit of the earth, exercising long-suffering over it until it receives the early and late rain.
5:8 你们也当恒忍，坚固你们的心，因为主的来临近了。
You also be long-suffering; establish your hearts because the coming of the Lord has drawn near.
5:9 弟兄们，你们不要彼此埋怨，免得受审判；看哪，那审判者站在门前了。
Do not complain, brothers, against one another lest you be judged. Behold, the Judge stands before the doors.
5:10 弟兄们，你们要把那曾在主名里说话的众申言者，当作受苦和恒忍的榜样。
As an example, brothers, of suffering evil and of long-suffering, take the prophets, who spoke in the name of the Lord.
5:11 看哪，我们称那忍耐的人是有福的。你们听见过约伯的忍耐，也看见过主给他的结局，明显主是满有慈心，且有怜恤。
Behold, we call those who endured blessed. You have heard of the endurance of Job, and you have seen his end from the Lord, that the Lord is very tenderhearted and compassionate.
5:12 我的弟兄们，最要紧的是不可起誓；不可指着天起誓，也不可指着地起誓，无论何誓都不可起；你们的话，是，就说是，不是，就说不是，免得你们落在审判之下。
But above all things, my brothers, do not swear, neither by heaven nor by earth nor with any other oath; but let your yes be yes, and your no, no, lest you fall under judgment.
5:13 你们中间有受苦的么？他该祷告。有愉快的么？他该歌颂。
Does anyone among you suffer evil? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise.
5:14 你们中间有病弱的么？他该请召会的长老来，在主的名里用油抹他，为他祷告。
Is anyone among you ill? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.
5:15 信心的祈祷要救那病人，主必叫他起来；他若犯了罪，也必蒙赦免。
And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he has committed sins, it will be forgiven him.
5:16 所以你们要彼此认罪，互相代祷，使你们可以得医治。义人的祈求发动起来，是大有能力的。
Therefore confess your sins to one another and pray for one another that you may be healed. The petition of a righteous man avails much in its working.
5:17 以利亚是与我们性情相同的人，他恳切祷告，求不要降雨，雨就三年零六个月不降在地上。
Elijah was a man of like feeling with us, and he earnestly prayed that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months.
5:18 他又祷告，天就赐下雨水，地也生出土产。
And he prayed again, and heaven gave rain, and the earth sprouted forth with its fruit.
5:19 我的弟兄们，你们中间若有人受迷惑离开真理，有人使他回转，
My brothers, if any one among you is led astray from the truth and someone turns him back,
5:20 这人该知道，那叫一个罪人从他错谬的路上转回的，必救他的魂脱离死亡，也必遮盖众多的罪。
Let him know that he who turns a sinner back from the error of his way will save that one's soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.
