James 5
1 ye ziza be yi bi wo bi ka ta yi ni sa wonyu niyu ine shiji wa ani ye ni u gbugbuu
do come now you who [are] rich, do weep wailing over the miseries upon you that [are] coming.
2 iwo bi a gla ikulon bi immaran ni lri ba
The riches of You have rotted and the garments of you moth-eaten have become;
3 zinariya ba azurfar bi ba kuklu kuklu a ani no shaida ni tu bi ani gon nmama kpabi na illu be vu ikpi u son bi kari nde ni gbe i vi u kaikle
The gold of you and the silver have corroded and the rust of them for a testimony against you will be and it will eat the flesh of you like fire; You have treasured up in [the] last days.
4 yga ie bi ti ndu aniyi ide wa be kayu be wa ba ka chah ikpi ni irju ni yiwu u yi be chah ikpi a hi ito u irji ruduna
Behold the wage of the workmen who having harvested the fields of you which (kept back *NK(o)*) by you cries out and the cries of those having harvested into the ears of [the] Lord of Hosts have entered.
5 bi son ni mi son ikpi u gbuuglu de yo tubi ni mi be yo isonron bi du wuloga ni gbi ivi u hha
You lived in luxury upon the earth and lived in self-indulgence, You have fattened the hearts of you (as *K*) in [the] day of slaughter.
6 bi hukunta de wo idid dede u ana san nyu ni yi na
You have condemned [and] have put to death the righteous; not does he resist you.
7 ni tu naki be ka vu sonran mrivayi khi gbie ye yesu na wa be ron ba gbie iga da cha ikpi mba ye niko ni vu sonron nda kpailu u mumla ni ilu u kaikle
do be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold the farmer awaits the precious fruit of the earth being patient for (it *NK(o)*) until (when *k*) it may receive (rain *k*) [the] early and latter [rains];
8 beyi me bi ka vu sonro be ka no gbegbele isonro bi i ye irji a ti hwiehwire
do be patient also you yourselves, do strengthen the hearts of you, because the coming of the Lord has drawn near.
9 na chaba gbugburu na mrivayimu ni kpa bu nde ndu mba na la yina ya ba u turon a khiri kutara.
Not do grumble brothers against one another so that not (you may be judged; *N(K)O*) Behold the Judge before the doors has been stood.
10 ban na ki mrivayi ni sha ya ni vu sonron annabawa be wa mba tre mba ni mi ide irji
[As] an example do take brothers (of mine *K*) of suffering evils and of patience the prophets who spoke (in *no*) the name of [the] Lord.
11 ya khi yo be wa mba vu sonrona ba be ti lulu be wo be be vu sonron wa Ayuba a tia be ka toh nde a hi idu irji na wa a he ni lo sonro ni jikai
Behold we count blessed those (having persevered; *N(k)O*) The perseverance of Job you have heard of and the outcome from [the] Lord (you have seen, *NK(o)*) that full of compassion is the Lord and [is] merciful.
12 nituwawu mrivayimu na shidi ni me me mba ni shu ko ni meme ko ni ikpiri u shidi nitu naki e a hi e u be ta tre nde a du hi a a du yi na joku ni mi hukunci na?
Before all things however, brothers of mine, not do swear, neither [swear by] heaven nor [swear by] the earth nor [swear by] other any oath; should be however of you the Yes [be] yes and the No [be] no, so that not (under *N(k)O*) (judgment *NK(O)*) you may fall.
13 u irbi a si shaya kpukpome? du herai irji u idri a ni giri? wa ka yosai u gberesa
Is suffering hardships anyone among you? he should pray; Is cheerful anyone? he should sing praises.
14 iri ni lo ni mi bi? wa a ka yo be nikon u tra irji du mba bere irji ni a u da gbah iyee ni wu ni mi nde irji
Is sick anyone among you? he should call near the elders of the church and they should pray over him having anointed him with oil in the name of the Lord.
15 ibere u kponji ani den idi u liloirji ni zu lude wa ani ta latre irji a ni wuru kalle wu
And the prayer of faith will save the [one] ailing and will raise up him the Lord; and if and if sins he shall be [one] having committed, it will be forgiven to him.
16 ni tu naki be kahla latre bi ni kpabi nde ta bere irji du no yi gbegble wawa bi ibere idi u dede a he ni gbegbele du u njaaji
do confess (therefore *NO*) to one another (the sins *N(k)O*) and (do pray *NK(o)*) for one another, so that you may be healed; Much prevails [the] prayer of a righteous [man] being made effective.
17 iliya a hi idime na khi ta a bere ni kpohji an de illu na juna i illuwa na ku ni gbula na ti isai tra ni hwatahne
Elijah a man was of like nature to us and with fervent prayer he prayed [for it] not to rain; and not it did rain upon the earth years three and months six;
18 u illiya ka labere irji na ki u shulu ka du illu ku u meme ka no ikolo kugrua
And again he prayed and the heaven rain gave and the earth produced the fruit of it.
19 mrivayimu u iribi ni ta baude ni mi njaaji u idior ji u kwmaye
Brothers (of Mine, *NO*) if anyone among you shall wander from the truth and shall bring back someone him,
20 indi ki ka toh ande idi wa a kwhandi sanra ni latre ma ani kpa a chuwo ni ohu nda ka gbu gbu latre ma
(he should know *NK(O)*) that the [one] having brought back a sinner from [the] error of the way of him will save [the] soul (of him *no*) from death and will cover over a multitude of sins.
