James 5:6-8

Easy-to-Read Version

⁶ You showed no mercy to good people. They were not against you, but you killed them.

Be Patient

⁷ Brothers and sisters, be patient; the Lord will come. So be patient until that time. Look at the farmers. They have to be patient. They have to wait for their valuable crop to grow and produce a harvest. They wait patiently for the first rain and the last rain.^{[a] 8} You must be patient too. Never stop hoping. The Lord is coming soon.
