corrupted—about to be destroyed through God's curse on your oppression, whereby your riches are accumulated (James 5:4). CALVIN thinks the sense is, Your riches perish without being of any use either to others or even to yourselves, for instance, your garments which are moth-eaten in your chests.
garments . . . moth-eaten—referring to Matthew 6:19-20.
