Ya:mese 3
1 Na fi dunu! Dilia fi ganodini dunu bagahame fawane olelesu hou lamu da defea. Gode da nini olelesu dunu ninima fofada: su hou da eno dunuma fofada: su hou baligimu, amo dilia dawa:
Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment.
2 Ninia huluane da giadofasu hou eso bagohame hamosa. Be nowa da giadofasu hame hamosa, amo dunu da moloidafa hamoi amola e da hi da: i hodo liligi huluane amoma ouligisu esala, amo ba: sa.
For in many things we all stumble. If anyone does not stumble in word, this one is a perfect person, able to bridle the whole body also.
3 Ninia da hosi ema nabasu hou olelema: ne amola logo eno logo eno amoga hiougima: ne, hosi ea lafi amo ganodini ouli genonesisu liligi sala
Now if we put bits into the horses' mouths so that they may obey us, we guide their whole body.
4 Dusagai bagade dawa: ma! Amo da liligi bagade. E da fo bagade amoga fabeba: le ahoa. Be “lada” fonobahadi amoga genonesisu dunu da dusagai logo eno logo eno amoga hiougisa.
And look at the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires.
5 Dunu ilia gona: su da agoaiwane diala. Gona: su da fonobahadi, be e da gasa fi bagade sia: musa: dawa: Lalu fonobahadi da nene heda: le, iwila bagade da nene dagosu dawa:
So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest.
6 Gona: su da lalu agoane. Amo da wadela: i liligi ninia da: i hodo ganodini. Wadela: i sia: sia: beba: le, ninia da: i hodo liligi huluanedafa da wadela: sa. Helo lalu da gona: su amoga dunu ilia esalusu huluane gia: iwane nenana. (Geenna g1067)
And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by hell. (Geenna g1067)
7 Osobo bagade dunu da fi liligi huluane fofomusa: dawa: Ilia da ohe fi, sio fi, sania fi amola menabo fi, huluane fofomusa: dawa:
For all kinds of animals, and birds, of reptiles and sea creatures, are being tamed and have been tamed by humankind.
8 Be dunu da gona: su ea hou fofomusa: hame dawa: Gona: su da wadela: idafa, nabasu hou hame dawa: amola saya: be ea bogosu defo hano agoane nabai gala.
But nobody can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
9 Ninia gona: su afadafa amoga ninia gilisili ninia Hina Gode amola Ada, amoma nodone sia: sa amola ninia na: iyado dunu amo Gode da hi ba: su amo defele hamoi, ilima ninia da gagabusu aligima: ne sia: sa.
With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people, who are made in the image of God.
10 Nodosu sia: amola wadela: ma: ne gagabusu sia: da gilisili lafi afadafa amoga maha. Na fi dunu! Amo da noga: i hame.
Out of the same mouth comes forth blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
11 Hano nasu afadafa amoga hano ida: iwane amola hano gamogaiwane, gilisili dimu da hamedei.
Does a spring send out from the same opening fresh and bitter water?
12 Figi ifa da olife fage hame legesa. Waini efe da figi fage hame legesa. Gamogai hano nasu amoga hano ida: iwane dimu da hamedei galebe.
Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Nor is salt water able to produce sweet.
13 Dunu afae da dilia gilisisu amo ganodini bagade dawa: su hou amola asigi hou lalegagui esalabela: ? Defea! E da ea fonoboiwane amola dawa: iwane hou amoga ea hou da moloidafa olelemu da defea.
Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.
14 Be dia dogo ganodini mudasu hou, ougi hou amola uasu hou, amo galea, di da dafawane hou amoma ogogosa: besa: le, di da hidale amola ogogole bagade dawa: su hou lai dagoi maedafa sia: ma!
But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, do not boast and do not lie against the truth.
15 Agoaiwane bagade dawa: su hou da Hebene amogainini hame maha. Amo dawa: su hou da A: silibuga hame olelei, osobo bagade hou fawane. Amo hou da Fio a: silibu fawane olelesa.
This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic.
16 Be dunu ilia hou amo ganodini mudasu hou amola uasu hou ba: sea, wadela: i hou amola wili gala: su hou da gilisili ba: mu.
For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.
17 Be bagade dawa: su hou amo Hebenega mabe hou da ledo hame ba: sa. Amo hou da olofosu hou, gebewane hou, na: iyado hou amola asigidafa hou, agoaiwane ba: sa. Amo bagade dawa: su hou dialebeba: le, dunu ilia fidisu hou bagade hamonanebe ba: sa. Bagade dawa: su dunu da eno dunu hame higale ba: sa amola ilia hou da bagadedafa ilisu da hidale hame olelesa.
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, without hypocrisy.
18 Fedege agoane, olofosu dunu da olofosu hawa: agoane bugibiba: le, hou ida: iwane ha: i manu agoane faisa.
Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
