Yakobo 3
1 Achalongo achinjangu, nkaŵa ŵakwiganya ŵajinji pakuŵa nkumanyilila kuti uweji utukwiganya tutulamulikwe kwa chikali nnope kwapunda ŵandu ŵane.
Mi britheren, nyle ye be maad many maistris, witynge that ye taken the more doom.
2 Uweji wose tukuleŵa mwamujinji. Nambo iŵaga mundu ngakuleŵa mu nkuŵecheta kwakwe, jwelejo ali jwamalilwe, nombejo akupakombola kuchilongosya chiilu chakwe chose.
For alle we offenden in many thingis. If ony man offendith not in word, this is a perfit man; for also he may lede aboute al the bodi with a bridil.
3 Uwe tukuŵika chipaande chamwana cha chisyano chachitaŵikwe kwa migoji nkang'wa sya falasi kuti tukombole kuilongosya iilu yao kwaula kwakuli kose kwatukusaka uweji.
For if we putten bridlis `in to horsis mouthis, for to consente to vs, and we leden aboute al the bodi of hem.
4 Iyoyo ngalaŵa namose jili jekulungwa nnope jikujigalikwa ni mbungo jakalipa nambo jikugalauswa ni chipande cha mwana cha chibao, ni jikwaula kwakusaka jwakujilongosya.
And lo! schippis, whanne thei ben grete, and ben dryuun of stronge wyndis, yit thei ben borun about of a litil gouernaile, where the meuyng of the gouernour wole.
5 Iyoyo peyo lulimi luli chiŵalo cha mwana nnope pa chiilu nambo lukulilapilila indu yekulungwa nnope. Nganisye mooto kanandi yaukuti pakolesya litinji lyekulungwa nnope.
So also the tunge is but a litil membre, and reisith grete thingis. Lo! hou litil fier brenneth a ful greet wode.
6 Nombe lulimi luli mpela mooto. Lugumbele igongomalo ya pachilambo. Lulimi luli chiŵalo cha mwana nambo lukukombola kuchinyakasya chiilu chose. Lukutinisya umi wetu chitandile kupagwa mpaka kuwa, kwa mooto waukutyochela ku jehanamu. (Geenna g1067)
And oure tunge is fier, the vniuersite of wickidnesse. The tunge is ordeyned in oure membris, which defoulith al the bodi; and it is enflawmed of helle, and enflawmeth the wheel of oure birthe. (Geenna g1067)
7 Mundu akukombola kulanga inyama yailiyose nombe amasile kukombola kulanga, inyama ya mwitinji ni ijuni yailiyose ni inyama yaikukwaŵa yailiyose ni yaikutama mmeesi.
And al the kynde of beestis, and of foulis, and of serpentis, and of othere is chastisid, and tho ben maad tame of mannus kinde; but no man mai chastise the tunge,
8 Nambo ngapagwa mundu jwakukombola kululanga lulimi. Lulimi luli lwangalumbana ni ngalukukomboleka kululanga, ni lugumbele sumu jajikuulaga.
for it is an vnpesible yuel, and ful of deedli venym.
9 Kwa lulimi tukwalapa Ambuje ni Atati ŵetu, ni kwa lulimi lulolo tukwalwesya ŵandu ŵagumbikwe chisau cha Akunnungu.
In it we blessen God, the fadir, and in it we cursen men, that ben maad to the licnesse of God.
10 Mu kang'wa jimo mukukopochela maloŵe ga upile ni maloŵe ga kulwesya. Achalongo achinjangu ngaikuŵajilwa indu iŵeje yeleyo.
Of the same mouth passith forth blessing and cursing. My britheren, it bihoueth not that these thingis be don so.
11 Ana chisima chikukombola kukoposya kwanakamo meesi gambone ni meesi ga njete?
Whether a welle of the same hoole bringith forth swete and salt watir?
12 Ana achalongo achinjangu chitela cha ntini chikukombola kusogosya isogosi ya seituni pane chitela cha msabibu chikukombola kusogosya isogosi ya tini? Ngwamba, chisima cha meesi ga njete ngachikukombola kukoposya meesi gambone.
My britheren, whether a fige tre may make grapis, ethir a vyne figus? So nethir salt watir mai make swete watir.
13 Ana nduni jwali ni lunda ni umanyilisi pasikati ja ŵanyamwe? Nipele alosye yeleyo kwa lwendo lwakwe lwambone kwa litala lya ipanganyo yaikupanganyikwa kwa kulitulusya ni lunda.
Who is wijs, and tauyt among you? schewe he of good lyuyng his worching, in myldenesse of his wisdom.
14 Nambo iŵaga mmitima jenu mugumbele wiu ni uchimwa ni lipamo, nkasisa usyene kwa kulilapa ni kusala unami.
That if ye han bitter enuye, and stryuyngis ben in youre hertis, nyle ye haue glorye, and be lyeris ayens the treuthe.
15 Lunda lwati yeleyo ngalukutuluka kutyochela kwinani nambo luli lunda lwa pa chilambo, lwele lunda luli lwa chiundu ni lukutyochela kwa Shetani.
For this wisdom is not fro aboue comynge doun, but ertheli, and beestli, and feendli.
16 Pakuŵa papali ni wiu ni lipamo, pana utindiganyo ni ipanganyo yose yangalimate.
For where is enuye and strijf, there is vnstidfastnesse and al schrewid werk.
17 Nambo lwele lunda lwalukutyochela kwinani, luli lwakusalala, lukusaka chitendewele ni kulitimalika, luli chile kupilikanila maloŵe ga ŵandu. Lugumbele chanasa ni ipanganyo yambone, nganilukola lusagu, namuno kulambusya.
But wisdom that is from aboue, first it is chast, aftirward pesible, mylde, able to be counseilid, consentinge to goode thingis, ful of merci and of goode fruytis, demynge with out feynyng.
18 Ŵandu ŵakuchinonyela chitendewele akupanganya indu yaikwikanawo chitendewele kwa ŵandu ŵane, mbesi jakwe ŵandu akutendekwa ŵambone paujo pa Akunnungu.
And the fruyt of riytwisnesse is sowun in pees, to men that maken pees.
