James 5:4
Tazameni, malipo ya watendakazi-wale ambao hamjawalipa kwa kuvuna katika mashamba yenu- wanalia! Na kilio cha wale waliovuna mazao yenu kimeyafikia masikio ya Bwana wa Majeshi.

Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.
Look, the wages you withheld from the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of Hosts.
Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you have kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Armies.

In context
1 Njoni sasa, enyi mlio matajiri, lieni kwa sauti ya juu kwa sababu ya taabu inayokuja juu yenu.
2 Utajiri wenu umeharibiwa na mavazi yenu yametafunwa na wadudu waharibifu.
3 Dhahabu zenu na fedha zenu zimekosa thamani, na uharibifu wake utashuhudia dhidi yenu na kuangamiza miili yenu kama moto. Mmejiwekea hazina yenu katika siku za mwisho.
4 Tazameni, malipo ya watendakazi-wale ambao hamjawalipa kwa kuvuna katika mashamba yenu- wanalia! Na kilio cha wale waliovuna mazao yenu kimeyafikia masikio ya Bwana wa Majeshi.
5 Mmeishi kwa anasa duniani na kujifurahisha ninyi wenyewe. Mmejinenepesha mioyo yenu kwa siku ya machinjo.
6 Mmemhukumu na kumuua mwenye haki asiyeweza kuwapinga.
7 Kwa hiyo vumilieni, ndugu, mpaka ujio wa Bwana, kama mkulima husubiri mavuno ya thamani toka katika nchi, akisubiri kwa uvumilivu kwa ajili yake, mpaka mvua za kwanza na zile za mwisho zikinyesha.
