James 2:6

Ὑμεῖς δὲ ἠτιμάσατε τὸν πτωχόν. Οὐχ οἱ πλούσιοι καταδυναστεύουσιν ὑμῶν, καὶ αὐτοὶ ἕλκουσιν ὑμᾶς εἰς κριτήρια;
Ymeis de ētimasate ton ptōchon. Oych oi ploysioi katadynasteyoysin ymōn, kai aytoi elkoysin ymas eis kritēria;
King James Version (KJV)

But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?

Modern English

But you have dishonored the poor. Is it not the rich who are exploiting you? Are they not the ones who are dragging you into court?
