WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Ходите ви сад, богати, плачите и ридајте за своје љуте невоље које иду на вас.
1 EA ya ahora, oh ricos, llorad aullando por vuestras miserias que os vendrán.
1 Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming on you.
2 Богатство ваше иструхну, и хаљине ваше поједоше мољци;
2 Vuestras riquezas están podridas: vuestras ropas están comidas de polilla.
2 Your riches are corrupted and your garments are moth-eaten.
3 злато ваше и сребро зарђа, и рђа њихова биће сведочанство на вас: изјешће тело ваше као огањ. Стекосте богатство у последње дане.
3 Vuestro oro y plata están corrompidos de orín; y su orín os será en testimonio, y comerá del todo vuestras carnes como fuego. Os habéis allegado tesoro para en los postreros días.
3 Your gold and your silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be for a testimony against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up your treasure in the last days.
4 Гле, виче плата ваших посленика који су радили њиве ваше и ви сте им откинули; и вика жетелаца дође до ушију Господа Саваота.
4 He aquí, el jornal de los obreros que han segado vuestras tierras, el cual por engaño no les ha sido pagado de vosotros, clama; y los clamores de los que habían segado, han entrado en los oídos del Señor de los ejércitos.
4 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.
5 Веселисте се на земљи, и насладисте се; ухранисте срца своја, као на дан заклања.
5 Habéis vivido en deleites sobre la tierra, y sido disolutos; habéis cebado vuestros corazones como en el día de sacrificios.
5 You have lived in luxury on the earth, and taken your pleasure. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter.
6 Осудисте, убисте праведника, и не брани вам се.
6 Habéis condenado [y] muerto al justo; [y] él no os resiste.
6 You have condemned and you have murdered the righteous one. He doesn’t resist you.
7 Трпите, дакле, браћо моја, до доласка Господњег. Гле, тежак чека племенити род из земље, и радо трпи док не прими дажд рани и позни.
7 Pues, hermanos, tened paciencia hasta la venida del Señor. Mirad [cómo] el labrador espera el precioso fruto de la tierra, aguardando con paciencia, hasta que reciba la lluvia temprana y tardía.
7 Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receives the early and late rain.
8 Трпите, дакле, и ви и утврдите срца своја, јер се долазак Господњи приближи.
8 Tened también vosotros paciencia; confirmad vuestros corazones: porque la venida del Señor se acerca.
8 You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
9 Не уздишите један на другог, браћо, да не будете осуђени: гле, судија стоји пред вратима.
9 Hermanos, no os quejéis unos contra otros, porque no seáis condenados; he aquí, el juez está delante de la puerta.
9 Don’t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you won’t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.
10 Узмите, браћо моја, за углед страдања пророке који говорише у име Господа.
10 Hermanos míos, tomad por ejemplo de aflicción y de paciencia, á los profetas que hablaron en nombre del Señor.
10 Take, brothers, for an example of suffering and of perseverance, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
11 Гле, блажене називамо оне који претрпеше. Трпљење Јовљево чусте, и последак Господњи видесте: јер је Господ милостив и смилује се.
11 He aquí, tenemos por bienaventurados á los que sufren. Habéis oído la paciencia de Job, y habéis visto el fin del Señor, que el Señor es muy misericordioso y piadoso.
11 Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and have seen the Lord in the outcome, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
12 А пре свега, браћо моја, не куните се ни небом ни земљом, ни другом каквом клетвом; него нека буде шта јесте да, и шта није не, да не паднете под суд.
12 Mas sobre todo, hermanos míos, no juréis, ni por el cielo, ni por la tierra, ni por otro cualquier juramento; sino vuestro sí sea sí, y vuestro no sea no; porque no caigáis en condenación.
12 But above all things, my brothers, don’t swear—not by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your “yes” be “yes”, and your “no”, “no”, so that you don’t fall into hypocrisy.
13 Мучи ли се ко међу вама, нека се моли Богу; је ли ко весео нека хвали Бога.
13 ¿Está alguno entre vosotros afligido? haga oración. ¿Está alguno alegre? cante salmos.
13 Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises.
14 Болује ли ко међу вама, нека дозове старешине црквене, те нека читају молитву над њим, и нека га помажу уљем у име Господње.
14 ¿Está alguno enfermo entre vosotros? llame á los ancianos de la iglesia, y oren por él, ungiéndole con aceite en el nombre del Señor.
14 Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;
15 И молитва вере помоћи ће болеснику, и подигнуће га Господ; и ако је грехе учинио, опростиће му се.
15 Y la oración de fe salvará al enfermo, y el Señor lo levantará; y si estuviere en pecados, le serán perdonados.
15 and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
16 Исповедајте, дакле, један другом грехе, и молите се Богу један за другог, да оздрављате; јер непрестана молитва праведног много може помоћи.
16 Confesaos vuestras faltas unos á otros, y rogad los unos por los otros, para que seáis sanos; la oración del justo, obrando eficazmente, puede mucho.
16 Confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.
17 Илија беше човек смртан као и ми, и помоли се Богу да не буде дажда, и не удари дажд на земљу за три године и шест месеци.
17 Elías era hombre sujeto á semejantes pasiones que nosotros, y rogó con oración que no lloviese, y no llovió sobre la tierra en tres años y seis meses.
17 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain, and it didn’t rain on the earth for three years and six months.
18 И опет се помоли и небо даде дажд, и земља изнесе род свој.
18 Y otra vez oró, y el cielo dió lluvia, y la tierra produjo su fruto.
18 He prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.
19 Браћо! Ако ко од вас зађе с пута истине, и обрати га ко,
19 Hermanos, si alguno de entre vosotros ha errado de la verdad, y alguno le convirtiere,
19 Brothers, if any among you wanders from the truth and someone turns him back,
20 нека зна да ће онај који обрати грешника с кривог пута његовог спасти душу од смрти, и покрити мноштво греха.
20 Sepa que el que hubiere hecho convertir al pecador del error de su camino, salvará un alma de muerte, y cubrirá multitud de pecados.
20 let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Let us listen to the Apostle James, who states this precept with the greatest clearness when he says, "Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another." For of this also the Lord gave us the example.

Also, the converting our brethren from their wandering. For, it is said, "Go thou, and convert thy brethren, that thy sins may be forgiven thee." And from one's being in close relations with the priests, "and if," it is said, "a man hath committed sins it shall be forgiven him." ( Jas.
