7 So, brothers, be patient until the coming of the Master. See, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain.
8 You too, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Master has drawn near.
9 Do not grumble against each other, brothers, lest you be judged. See, the Judge is standing at the door!
10 My brothers, as an example of suffering and patience, take the prophets, who spoke in the Name of יהוה.
11 See, we call those blessed who endure. You have heard of the endurance of Iyoḇ and saw the purpose of יהוה, that He is very sympathetic and compassionate.
12 But above all, my brothers, do not swear, either by the heaven or by the earth or with any other oath. But let your Yes be Yes, and your No, No, lest you fall into judgment.
13 Is any of you suffering evil? Let him pray. Is anyone in good spirits? Let him sing psalms.
