James 1
1 James, a bondman of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes in the Dispersion, greeting.
Yakobo mutugwa wang'wi Tunda nu mukolo u Yesu Kilisto, kundugu makumi abiile nasapatiye milamu.
2 Consider it all joy, my brothers, when ye encounter various trials,
Muale kutula ulowa nuwidu, aluna ane, nimukukiila munzago niyakununikunu.
3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.
Meze mulingile kugeng'wa kuuhueli wanyu mepegwaugimya.
4 And let perseverance have a perfect work, so that ye may be perfect and complete, falling short in nothing.
Uleki, ugimya ukondye imilimo akwe, kina mulume kunonelya kisa, singa muuleke kuhielwa lehi.
5 And if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask from God who gives to all generously and not reproaching, and it will be given to him.
Kang'we ukole muntu ntogeela anyu utakile upolo, walompe kupuma kung'wi Tunda, nuepumya kuukende hangi singa wikenela kuehi niimulompa hangi wiapeza upolo.
6 But let him ask in faith, doubting nothing, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven by wind and tossed about.
Ingi lompa kuuhueli, uleke kuailya, kunsoko nuiiailya, wipyanigwe nimaingu nenyanza wiholwa nung'wega nukugung'wa kunu nukunu.
7 For that man should not think that he will receive anything from the Lord,
Kutai umuntu angauyu waleke kusegeela kina ilompi lakwe lukusingeligwa nu mukulu.
8 a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
Muntu uyu ukete masigo abiili, singa ukandanie munzila yakwe yehi.
9 Now let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation,
Muluna numuluna inonee kikulya kunsoko akimekakung'wakwe migulia,
10 but the rich in his lowliness, because as a flower of grass he will pass away.
matungo yayoyayo muluna numugole kukiila kisimia kung'wakwe, kunsoko wikahega anga umpumbulu nuamung'wapo mumugunda nukeile.
11 For the sun rose up with the burning heat, and withered the grass. And the flower of it fell, and the beauty of its appearance perished. So also the rich man will fade away among his pursuits.
Ilyoa litoloka nuupiu wikasonsa nukumisa mimea niampumbulu igweza nuuza wakwe wikuza. Uu uu niantu niagoli izizebipa mumilimo.
12 Blessed is a man who endures temptation, because, having become approved, he will receive the crown of life, which the Lord promised to those who love him.
Ukembetilwe umuntu numugimia mumageng'wa kunsoko anga wadula ingegwa wikasingilia ngala naupanga, naulagile kuawa niamuloilwe Itunda.
13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted by God, for God is without temptation of evils, and he himself tempts no man.
Muntu wihi shainonee kutambula nukole migeng'wa, ingegwa ile lipumile kung'wi Tunda. Kunsoko Itunda shanga wigeng'wa nimabe, ni Tunda ung'wenso shawimugema wihi.
14 But each man is tempted by his own lust, being drawn away and enticed.
Kila muntu wigeng'wa ninsulakwe nimupepelya nukumuluta kupumila kuli.
15 Then the lust having conceived, it gives birth to sin, and after being complete the sin brings forth death.
Papo anga insula amilandu ikenke iimbi, umulandu wituga sunga anga umulandu anga wakonda lukukulu wihiela muusha.
16 Be not led astray, my beloved brothers.
Aluna ane alowa lekikikongi.
17 Every good gift and every perfect endowment is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation nor shadow of turning.
Kela izawadi niiza hange kela izawadi nikondanie kupuma kilunde, isima pehi kupuma kung'wa kung'wa Tata nuawelu, kwee shawikailika anga umulule nuipeloka.
18 Having deliberated, he begot us by the word of truth for us to be a certain first fruit of his creatures.
Itunda ausague kuupa use upanga kulukani la tai, kuhume kutula anga kiang'wandyo kuutugwa muintu yakwe.
19 Therefore, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.
Mulengile ite aluna ane alowa. Kela ung'wao yemunonee watule mupepelyi kija, waleke kukaya kuligitia nukutaka.
20 For the wrath of man does not accomplish the righteousness of God.
Kunsoko utaki waantu shangaukituma itai ang'wi Tunda.
21 Therefore having put off all filthiness and profusion of evil, receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
Kuitegwa iki kule impaala yamilandu nuubi wehinuukole kila upande lusingilyi kwa kusima ulukani nulutemewe mukateanyu uhumi kuuguna inkolo yanyu.
22 But become ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
Lugombi ulukani muleke ukija du, mukikongela munkolo yangu unyenye.
23 Because if any man is a hearer of the word and not a doer, this resembles a man observing his natural face in a mirror.
Kunsoko wehi nukija, wahite kulitumila umilimo wihanganga umuntu nuwigoza uusu wakwe uwenso mukioo.
24 For he observes himself, and goes away, and straightaway forgets what kind of man he was.
Wegema uusu wakwe, wekalongola matungo makupe wakiwaa neimpyani.
25 But he who stooped to look into the perfect law, the one of liberty, and who remained, this man, who did not become a forgetful hearer but a doer of work, this man will be blessed in his doing.
Inge umuntu uyu nuigoza kikendegeela milago nilikami nseigwe, ilago lawidesi, nukulongoleka kugomba, singa kunsoka noanso miji nuewa, umuntu nuanso ukukembetwa nukituma.
26 If any man among you seems to be religious, not bridling his tongue but deceiving his heart, this man's religion is futile.
Anga umuntu wihi wakusige ung'wenso kuite muntu wikumbiko. Hangi shuzepeeye ululime lakwe wikongela inkolo akwe nikumbeko lakwe nikanda.
27 Pure religion and undefiled from God and the Father is this, to go help the orphaned and the widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
Ikumbiko niza nigila uubee ntongela ang'wi Tunda witu nu Tata ingi sile. Kuaailya ialekwa nao niashewe niagoha ao mulwago lao, nukisunga ienso nuube wihi.
