3 to ridi ahitsa yosron mbi ni ngji vurson
knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance;
4 ndu vurontien ndu ma ndi ndu yi sen ngbendble ndi na wakpe haman
And endurance work [its] perfect should have, so that you may be perfect and complete in nothing lacking.
5 iri mi nita ni wato ka bre rji wa ani nno ni yalwace ana whicn ni bi wa ba bre wua na ani nno ba
If now any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask from the [One] giving God to all generously and (not *NK(o)*) finding fault, and it will be given to him.
6 ama ndu mye ni yosron ana ni sron ha naidji waa a nitie sron ha ahe na lukurmi u teku wa nghunghu ni fu kadidan
he should ask however in faith nothing doubting; The [one] for doubting he has been likened to a wave of [the] sea being blown by the wind and being tossed by the wind.
7 ndu idji kima na ya ridi wawuu ni fe kpe ni rji na
Not for should suppose the man that that he will receive anything from the Lord;

11 don irj ni hwu waka klu ngongon me na giga

Blessed [is the] man who endures trial, because approved having been he will receive the crown of life that He has promised (the Lord *K*) to those loving Him.
13 ndu njiori na tre ndi ba tra wawuu ndi a rji mba tra wawuu na ba na tra rji ni meme na wawuu ni tuma ana tra njori na
No one being tempted should say that By (*k*) God I am being tempted; For God unable to be tempted is by evils, tempts now He Himself no [one];
14 u dji ni fe tsra ma nitu tie meme ma kima wa ani gyru nda kawu kaskan
A man however is tempted by the own desire being drawn away and being enticed;
15 wa kptre meme ma whrji nee aningyji latre latre nita babran ani ngyi kuwu
Then desire having conceived it gives birth to sin, and sin having become fully grown it brings forth death.

he has viewed for himself and has gone away and immediately he has forgotten what like he was.

Religion pure and undefiled before the God and Father this is, to visit orphans and widows in the tribulation of them, unstained oneself to keep from the world.
