Yakobo 2
1 Abale anga, okhulupirira Yesu Khristu waulemerero, musaonetse tsankho.
Bhaholo bhane msasyesyetanye ulweteho lwa Gosi uYesu uKilisti, Ugosi wituntumu, hwa ganililizye abhantu bhamo.
2 Tangoganizirani, pakati panu patabwera munthu atavala mphete yagolide ndi zovala zapamwamba, ndipo winanso wosauka nʼkulowa atavala sanza.
Nkesho mntu omo ainjila muluwo ngano lwenyu akwete ipete iwe lihela na ompena wenenda amabhibhi,
3 Ngati musamala kwambiri munthu wovala bwinoyu uja, nʼkumuwuza kuti, “Khalani pa mpando wabwinowu,” koma wosauka uja nʼkumuwuza kuti, “Ima apo,” kapena “Khala pansi pafupi ndi chopondapo mapazi angawa,”
na mwalolesya husajile hasa ola awe hgala epa apinza “lakini mwamozya ola umpena,” “Awe amelela pala,” au hgala pansi yimanama gane.”
4 kodi simunachite tsankho pakati panu ndi kukhala oweruza a maganizo oyipa?
Eshi mwalongwanya mwenemwe, nabhe bhatazanyi bhene ensewo imbibhi?
5 Tamverani abale anga okondedwa, kodi Mulungu sanasankhe amene dziko lapansi limawaona ngati amphawi kuti akhale olemera mʼchikhulupiriro ndi kulowa ufumu umene Iye analonjeza kwa amene amamukonda?
Tejelezi, bhaholobhane bhaganwe, eshi Ungolobhe sagabhasaluye apena bhense abhe abhatawazi bhilweteho na apyane womwene wabhandalie bhabhagene?
6 Koma mwakhala mukunyoza amphawi. Kodi si anthu olemerawa amene akukudyerani masuku pamutu? Si anthu amenewa amene amakukokerani ku bwalo la milandu?
Lakini mubhasholanyenye apena! oshi saga bhabha hubhapela amayemba amwasaga bhewo bhahubhavuta whiboma?
7 Kodi si omwewa amene amachita chipongwe dzina la wolemekezeka, limene inu mumatchulidwa?
Saga bhatabhazi bhabhahuliliga itawa lila ilinza mbalyo hwelyo mkwizwilwe?
8 Ngati musungadi lamulo laufumu lija lopezeka mʼMalemba lakuti, “Konda mnansi wako monga iwe mwini,” ndiye kuti mukuchita bwino.
Hata shesho muhutimizya indajizyo ye shemwene hansi sisimbiliwilwe mmandishi, “Ubhahugane wapanshenje waho hansi awe wenewe,” mwomba shinza.
9 Koma mukamaonetsa tsankho mukuchimwa, ndipo ndinu wochimwa monga wophwanya lamulo.
Eshi nkamwaganilizya abhantu bhamo, mwomba mbibhi, mlongwa ni ndajizyo abhe bhavunzi ndajizyo.
10 Pakuti amene amasunga Malamulo onse, akangophwanya fundo imodzi yokha, waphwanya Malamulo onse.
Wowonti watimizya indajizyo yonti, na bado ambomela pinukuta yeka tou, alinanongwa ya vunze ndajizyo yonti!
11 Pakuti amene anati “Usachite chigololo” ndi yemweyonso anati “Usaphe.” Ngati suchita chigololo koma umapha, ndiwe wophwanya Malamulo.
Afwatanaje “Ungolobhe ayanjile Ugajegone,” na ashengwa yoyo pia ayanjile, “Usahibhe.” Nkasaga ugona na sengwa, ila ugoga, ubudulanyenye indajizyo ya Ngolobhe.
12 Muziyankhula ndi kuchita zinthu monga anthu amene mudzaweruzidwe ndi lamulo limene limapereka ufulu,
Esho yangaji na hweteshe hansi bhala bhabhali pepe alongwe nindajizyo yiwaushe.
13 chifukwa munthu woweruza mopanda chifundo, nayenso adzaweruzidwa mopanda chifundo. Chifundo chimapambana pa chiweruzo.
Huje alongwe huhwenza bila onkombo wha bhala bhasagabhalini nkombo. Enkombo ihujietema pamwanyayi longwi.
14 Abale anga, phindu lake nʼchiyani ngati munthu anena kuti ali ndi chikhulupiriro koma chopanda ntchito zabwino? Kodi chikhulupiriro choterechi chingamupulumutse?
Huli uwinza wele, bhaholo bhane, nkesho umuntu ayanga aiga indinalo ulweteho, lakini saga alinimbombo?
15 Tangoganizirani, mʼbale kapena mlongo amene ali ndi usiwa, ndipo alibe chakudya cha tsiku ndi tsiku.
Hansi uholo wishilume au wesheshe ahanza amenda au ishalye shikila lisiku,
16 Ngati mmodzi wa inu amuwuza kuti, “Pita ndi mtendere, ukafundidwe ndipo ukakhute,” koma osamupatsa zimene akuzisowa, phindu lake nʼchiyani pamenepa?
na umntu wka mwikundi lyenyu amozya, “Bhalaji hutenganu, mbhale mote umoto na mulye ishinza,” saga muhubhapela ivinlu vivifaa gomble, eyo isaidilanshi?
17 Chomwechonso, chikhulupiriro chokha chopanda ntchito zabwino ndi chakufa.
Shesho ulweteho lwene, nkabaga luli ni mbombo.” lufwiye.
18 Koma wina anganene kuti, “Inuyo muli ndi chikhulupiriro koma ine ndili ndi ntchito zabwino.” Onetsani chikhulupiriro chanu chopanda ntchito zabwino ndipo ineyo ndidzakuonetsani chikhulupiriro changa pochita ntchito zabwino.
Asele muntu omo wezizye ayanje ulinalo ulweteho, nane indinazyo imbombo, “Ndolesye olweteho lwaho pasagapali imbombo, nane imbahulolesye ulweteho lwane humbombo zyane.
19 Mumakhulupirira kuti kuli Mulungu mmodzi yekha. Mumachita bwino. Komatu ngakhale ziwanda zimakhulupirira zimenezi ndipo zimanjenjemera ndi mantha.
Uhweteha aje huli Ungolobhe weka; uli sasa. Nape amazimu shesho gahweteha na yingane.
20 Munthu wopusa iwe, kodi ukufuna umboni woti chikhulupiriro chopanda ntchito zabwino nʼchakufa?
Eshi uhwanza amanye awe wamuntu wazyanje, inamna sheleho ulweteho bila imbombo shasagaifaa?
21 Kodi Abrahamu kholo lathu sanatengedwe kukhala wolungama chifukwa cha zimene anachita pamene anapereka mwana wake Isake pa guwa lansembe?
Saga yubaba wetu uIbrahimu abhaziwilwe atabhale humbombo pafumizye umwana wakwe u Isaka pamwanyayi shieuto?
22 Tsono mukuona kuti chikhulupiriro chake ndi ntchito zabwino zinkachitika pamodzi, ndipo chikhulupiriro chake chinasanduka chenicheni chifukwa cha ntchito zake zabwino.
Mulola abhe ulweteho lwake lwawombile imbombo ni mbombozyakwe, na humbombo yakwe, ulweteho lwakwe lwafishiye amakusudi agakwe.
23 Ndipo Malemba akunena kuti, “Abrahamu anakhulupirira Mulungu ndipo anatengedwa kukhala wolungama,” ndipo anatchedwa bwenzi la Mulungu.
Amazyi gatimiye gagayanga, “Ubrahamu amweteshe Ungolobhe, nabhaziwe abhe muntu wa tabhale, “Esho Ubrahamu akwiziwilwe kondanu wa Ngolobhe.
24 Tsono mukuona kuti munthu amasanduka wolungama ndi ntchito zabwino osati ndi chikhulupiriro chokha ayi.
Mwalola aje humbombo umuntu abhaziwa atabhale, na siyo hwelwe teho tou.
25 Nʼchimodzimodzinso, kodi wadama uja, Rahabe, sanasanduke wolungama chifukwa cha zomwe anachita pamene anapereka malo ogona kwa azondi aja ndi kuwathawitsira mbali ina?
Na shesho, na sagali yu Rahabu ola wabhazwile atabhale humbombo, pabhakaribisizye abhajumbe na hubhatwala humbafa nara iyenje?
26 Monga thupi lopanda mzimu ndi lakufa, chomwechonso chikhulupiriro chopanda ntchito zabwino ndi chakufa.
Na hansi ubele nkasaga guli nu pepo gufwiye, shesho ulweteho bila imbombo gafwiye.
