Hearken, my beloved brethren; did not God choose them that are poor as to the world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he promised to them that love him?

Give ear, my dear brothers; are not those who are poor in the things of this world marked out by God to have faith as their wealth, and for their heritage the kingdom which he has said he will give to those who have love for him?

Ακουσατε, αδελφοι μου αγαπητοι, δεν εξελεξεν ο Θεος τους πτωχους του κοσμου τουτου πλουσιους εν πιστει και κληρονομους της βασιλειας, την οποιαν υπεσχεθη προς τους αγαπωντας αυτον;

Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?
