Edified Edition (EDE)Your gold and silver is rusted; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. You have heaped treasure together for the last days.

ὁ χρυσὸς ὑμῶν καὶ ὁ ἄργυρος κατίωται, καὶ ὁ ἰὸς αὐτῶν εἰς μαρτύριον ὑμῖν ἔσται καὶ φάγεται τὰς σάρκας ὑμῶν· ὡς πῦρ ἐθησαυρίσατε ἐν ἐσχάταις ἡμέραις.

Phonetic (Greek): etryphesate epi tes ges kai espatalesate, ethrepsate tas kardias ⸀hymon en hemerᾳ sphages.

Edified Edition (EDE)You have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; you have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

Edified Edition (EDE)Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, and has long patience for it, until he receives the early and latter rain.

Μακροθυμήσατε οὖν, ἀδελφοί, ἕως τῆς παρουσίας τοῦ κυρίου. ἰδοὺ ὁ γεωργὸς ἐκδέχεται τὸν τίμιον καρπὸν τῆς γῆς, μακροθυμῶν ἐπʼ ⸀αὐτῷ ἕως ⸀λάβῃ πρόϊμον καὶ ὄψιμον.

Edified Edition (EDE)Behold, we count them happy who endure. You have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.

ἰδοὺ μακαρίζομεν τοὺς ⸀ὑπομείναντας· τὴν ὑπομονὴν Ἰὼβ ἠκούσατε, καὶ τὸ τέλος κυρίου ⸀εἴδετε, ὅτι πολύσπλαγχνός ἐστιν ⸂ὁ κύριος⸃ καὶ οἰκτίρμων.

Phonetic (Greek): Pro panton de, adelphoi mou, me omnyete, mete ton oyranon mete ten gen mete allon tina horkon· eto de hymon to Nai nai kai to Oy oy, hina me ⸂hypo krisin⸃ pesete.

Edified Edition (EDE)But above all things, my brothers, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your "yes" be yes; and your "no," no; lest you fall into condemnation.

Πρὸ πάντων δέ, ἀδελφοί μου, μὴ ὀμνύετε, μήτε τὸν οὐρανὸν μήτε τὴν γῆν μήτε ἄλλον τινὰ ὅρκον· ἤτω δὲ ὑμῶν τὸ Ναὶ ναὶ καὶ τὸ Οὒ οὔ, ἵνα μὴ ⸂ὑπὸ κρίσιν⸃ πέσητε.

Phonetic (Greek): Kakopathei tis en hymin; proseuchestho· eythymei tis; psalleto.

Edified Edition (EDE)Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that you may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous person avails much.

ἐξομολογεῖσθε ⸀οὖν ἀλλήλοις ⸂τὰς ἁμαρτίας⸃ καὶ ⸀εὔχεσθε ὑπὲρ ἀλλήλων, ὅπως ἰαθῆτε. πολὺ ἰσχύει δέησις δικαίου ἐνεργουμένη.

Edified Edition (EDE)Elijah was a person subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth for three years and six months.

Ἠλίας ἄνθρωπος ἦν ὁμοιοπαθὴς ἡμῖν, καὶ προσευχῇ προσηύξατο τοῦ μὴ βρέξαι, καὶ οὐκ ἔβρεξεν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἐνιαυτοὺς τρεῖς καὶ μῆνας ἕξ·

Phonetic (Greek): kai palin proseyxato, kai ho oyranos ⸂hyeton edoken⸃ kai he ge eblastesen ton karpon aytes.

Edified Edition (EDE)And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.

καὶ πάλιν προσηύξατο, καὶ ὁ οὐρανὸς ⸂ὑετὸν ἔδωκεν⸃ καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐβλάστησεν τὸν καρπὸν αὐτῆς.

Phonetic (Greek): Ἀdelphoi ⸀mou, ean tis en hymin planethῇ apo tes aletheias kai epistrepsῃ tis ayton,

Edified Edition (EDE)Brothers, if any of you do err from the truth, and one converts him;

Ἀδελφοί ⸀μου, ἐάν τις ἐν ὑμῖν πλανηθῇ ἀπὸ τῆς ἀληθείας καὶ ἐπιστρέψῃ τις αὐτόν,

Phonetic (Greek): ⸀ginosketo hoti ho epistrepsas hamartolon ek planes hodoy aytoy sosei psychen ⸀aytoy ek thanatou kai kalypsei plethos hamartion.

Edified Edition (EDE)Let him know, that he who converts the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.

⸀γινωσκέτω ὅτι ὁ ἐπιστρέψας ἁμαρτωλὸν ἐκ πλάνης ὁδοῦ αὐτοῦ σώσει ψυχὴν ⸀αὐτοῦ ἐκ θανάτου καὶ καλύψει πλῆθος ἁμαρτιῶν.
