6. You have condemned and murdered innocent people, and they do not resist you.
7. Be patient, then, my brothers and sisters, until the Lord comes. See how patient a farmer is as he waits for his land to produce precious crops. He waits patiently for the autumn and spring rains.
8. You also must be patient. Keep your hopes high, for the day of the Lord's coming is near.
9. Do not complain against one another, my brothers and sisters, so that God will not judge you. The Judge is near, ready to appear.
10. My brothers and sisters, remember the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. Take them as examples of patient endurance under suffering.
11. We call them happy because they endured. You have heard of Job's patience, and you know how the Lord provided for him in the end. For the Lord is full of mercy and compassion.
