# the wages you kept back from the laborers who mowed your fields is crying out against you

The money that should have been paid is spoken of as a person who is shouting because of the injustice done to him. Alternate translation: "God can see that you kept back the wages you should have given to those who mowed your fields" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-personification]])

# The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts

The shouts of the harvesters are spoken of as if they could be heard in heaven. Alternate translation: "The Lord of hosts has heard the cries of the harvesters" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])

# the ears of the Lord of hosts

God is spoken of as if he had ears as humans have. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
