50 For behold, ye do love money, and your substance, and your fine apparel, and the adorning of your churches, more than ye love the poor and the needy, the sick and the afflicted.

51 O ye pollutions, ye hypocrites, ye teachers, who sell yourselves for that which will canker, why have ye polluted the holy church of God?

52 Why are ye ashamed to take upon you the name of Christ?

53 Why do you not think that greater is the value of an endless happiness, than that misery which never dies, because of the praise of the world?

54 Why do ye adorn yourselves with that which hath no life, and yet suffer the hungry, and the needy, and the naked, and the sick, and the afflicted to pass by you, and notice them not?

55 Yea, why do ye build up your secret abominations to get gain, and cause that widows should mourn before the Lord, and also orphans to mourn before the Lord; and also the blood of their fathers and their husbands to cry unto the Lord from the ground, for vengeance upon your heads?

56 Behold the sword of vengeance hangeth over you; and the time soon cometh that he avengeth the blood of the saints upon you, for he will not suffer their cries any longer.

57 And now, I speak also concerning those who do not believe in Christ.

58 Behold, will ye believe in the day of your visitation; behold, when the Lord shall come; yea, even that great day when the earth shall be rolled together as a scroll, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat;

59 Yea, in that great day when ye shall be brought to stand before the Lamb of God, then will ye say that there is no God?

60 Then will ye longer deny the Christ, or can ye behold the Lamb of God?
