James 3
1 Not many should become teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive greater judgment.
Kada yawancinku su so ɗaukan kansu a matsayin malamai,’yan’uwana, domin kun san cewa mu da muke koyarwa za a yi mana shari’a mafi tsanani.
2 For we all stumble in many things. If any man does not stumble in word, this is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.
Dukanmu mukan yi tuntuɓe a hanyoyi dabam-dabam. In wani bai taɓa yin kuskure a cikin maganarsa ba, shi cikakke ne, yana kuma iya ƙame dukan jikinsa.
3 Behold we put bits into the mouths of horses for them to obey us, and we guide about their whole body.
Sa’ad da muka sa linzamai a bakunan dawakai don mu sa su yi mana biyayya, mukan iya bin da dabbar gaba ɗaya.
4 Behold also the ships, being so great and driven by fierce winds, are guided about by a very small rudder, wherever the impulse of the man who steers determines.
Ko kuwa misali, mu dubi jiragen ruwa, mana. Ko da yake suna da girma ƙwarai kuma iska mai ƙarfi ce take tura su, ana tuƙa su da ɗan ƙaramin sandan ƙarfe ne zuwa duk inda mai tuƙin jirgin yake so.
5 So also the tongue is a little body-part, and boasts greatly. Behold a little fire, how much wood it kindles.
Haka ma harshe yake, ga shi ɗan ƙanƙanin gaɓar jiki ne, amma sai manyan fariya. Ku dubi yadda ɗan ƙaramin ƙyastu yake ƙuna wa babban jeji wuta mana.
6 And the tongue is a fire, the world of unrighteousness. Thus, the tongue is made to lead among our body-parts, defiling the whole body, and setting the cycle of nature on fire, and being set on fire by hell. (Geenna g1067)
Harshe ma wuta ne! A cikin duk gaɓoɓinmu, harshe shi ne tushen kowace irin mugunta, mai ɓata mutum gaba ɗaya, mai zuga zuciyar mutum ta tafasa, shi kuwa jahannama ce take zuga shi. (Geenna g1067)
7 For every species, both of beasts and of birds, both of creeping things and things in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed by the human species.
Kowace irin dabba, tsuntsu, masu ja da ciki da kuma halittun da suke cikin teku an sarrafa su kuma mutum ne ya sarrafa,
8 But no man is able to tame the tongue of men, an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
amma ba mutumin da zai iya ya sarrafa harshe. Mugu ne marar hutu, cike da dafi mai kisa.
9 By it we bless the God and Father, and by it we curse men, who were made according to a likeness of God.
Da harshe mukan yabi Ubangijinmu da kuma Ubanmu, da shi kuma muke la’antar mutane, waɗanda aka halitta a kamannin Allah.
10 Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and curse. My brothers, these things ought not to happen this way.
Daga wannan baki guda yabo da la’ana suke fitowa.’Yan’uwana, wannan bai kamata yă zama haka ba.
11 Does the spring pour out from the same opening the sweet and the bitter?
Ruwa mai kyau da kuma ruwan gishiri zai iya fito daga maɓulɓula ɗaya?
12 A fig tree, my brothers, cannot make olives, or a grapevine figs. In the same way, no one spring makes water salty and sweet.
’Yan’uwana, itacen ɓaure yana iya haifar’ya’yan zaitun, ko kuma itacen inabi yă haifi’ya’yan ɓaure? Haka ma, maɓulɓular ruwan gishiri ba zai iya ba da ruwa mai kyau ba.
13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show from his good behavior his works in meekness of wisdom.
Wane ne mai hikima da fahimta a cikinku? Bari yă nuna ta ta wurin rayuwarsa mai kyau, ta wurin ayyukan da aka yi cikin tawali’un da suke fitowa daga hikima.
14 But if ye have bitter envy and selfish ambition in your heart, do not boast, and do not lie against the truth.
Amma in kuna cike da mugun kishi da kuma sonkai a cikin zukatanku, kada ku yi taƙama game da wannan, ko ku danne gaskiya.
15 This wisdom is not descending from above, but is earthly, world-soul, demonic.
Irin wannan “hikima” ba daga sama ta sauko ba, ta duniya ce, ta rashin ruhaniya, ta Iblis kuma.
16 For where envy and selfish ambition are, there is instability and every evil deed.
Gama inda akwai kishi da sonkai, a can za a tarar da hargitsi da kowane irin mugun aiki.
17 But the wisdom from above is indeed first pure, then peaceful, gentle, easily entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and non-hypocritical.
Amma hikimar da ta zo daga sama da fari tana da tsabta gaba ɗaya; sa’an nan mai ƙaunar salama ce, mai sanin ya kamata, mai biyayya, cike da jinƙai da aiki mai kyau, marar nuna bambanci, sahihiya kuma.
18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace to those who make peace.
Masu salama da suke shuki cikin salama sukan girbe adalci.
