5:8 You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord's coming is near.
5:9 Don't grumble against each other, brothers, or you will be judged. The Judge is standing at the door!
5:10 Brothers, as an example of patience in the face of suffering, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
5:11 As you know, we consider blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of Job's perseverance and have seen what the Lord finally brought about. The Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
5:12 Above all, my brothers, do not swear-not by heaven or by earth or by anything else. Let your "Yes" be yes, and your "No," no, or you will be condemned.
5:13 Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise.
