James 3
1 Be ye not many masters, my brethren, knowing that you receive the greater judgment.
Bhana bhasu, jitalyati abhamfu mwimwe omutula okubha bheigisha, mumenyati echilamila indamu nene.
2 For in many things we all offend. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man. He is able also with a bridle to lead about the whole body.
Kulwokubha bhona echikaya kwa mbala nyamfu. Labha wonawona atakwikujula mukuloma kwae, oyo ni munu mulengelesi, katula ogutangasha omubhili gwae gwona.
3 For if we put bits into the mouths of horses, that they may obey us, and we turn about their whole body.
Woli labha echitamo ebhyuma mu farasi muminwa jajo na njichungwa, na echitula okujiindula emibhili jajo jona.
4 Behold also ships, whereas they are great, and are driven by strong winds, yet are they turned about with a small helm, whithersoever the force of the governor willeth.
Menyati imeli, nolo kutyo ninene eisilwa no muyaga mukali, ejitangashwa no lusukali lutoto muno okuja wona wona anu kenda omugofi.
5 Even so the tongue is indeed a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold how small a fire kindleth a great wood.
Kutyo kutyo, olulimi ni chiungo chitoto cho mubhili, nawe echikuisha makulu muno. Lola lisaka linene lwakutyo elyochwa na jinsase ntilu jo mulilo!
6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is placed among our members, which defileth the whole body, and inflameth the wheel of our nativity, being set on fire by hell. (Geenna g1067)
Olulimi wona ni mulilo, ninsi yo bhunyamke, luteweyo amwi mwe bhiungo bhyo mubhili gweswe, lunu olunyamula mubhili gwona no ogulutula ingulu yo mulilo injila yo bhulame, no lwenene okwochwa nomulilo gwa nyombe. (Geenna g1067)
7 For every nature of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of the rest, is tamed, and hath been tamed, by the nature of man:
Bhuli nyami ya jintyanyi ja mwipoli, jinyonyi, chinu echikwesa ne chimogwa cha munyanja ebhitulwa no mwana munu.
8 But the tongue no man can tame, an unquiet evil, full of deadly poison.
nawe atalio mwana munu nolo umwi unu katula okulutangasha olulimi; nilunyamke lunu lutakuoyelao, lwijuye obhusungu bhwo kwita.
9 By it we bless God and the Father: and by it we curse men, who are made after the likeness of God.
Kwo lulimi echimukuya Latabhugenyi na Lata weswe, na kwolwo echibhafumilisha abhanu bhanu bhamogelwe kwo lususo lwa Nyamuanga.
10 Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
Okusoka mukanwa omwo omwo owaika amagambo ge chigongo na gofumilisha. Bhana bhasu amagambo ganu gateile kubha.
11 Doth a fountain send forth, out of the same hole, sweet and bitter water?
Angu, lijibha limwi elitula okusosha amanji amanule na masaliji?
12 Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear grapes; or the vine, figs? So neither can the salt water yield sweet.
Bhana bhasu, Angu, liti lyo mutini elitula okutwasha amatwasho go mujaiituni, nolo omujabhibhu ogutwasha amatwasho go mutini? Nolo omugela gwa manji go munyu gutakusosha manji ganu gatana munyu.
13 Who is a wise man, and endued with knowledge among you? Let him shew, by a good conversation, his work in the meekness of wisdom.
Niga umwi mwimwe unu ali mwengeso no kusombokelwa? Omunu oyo oleshe obhulame bhwekisi mumilimu jae kwo kwikeya no bhwengeso.
14 But if you have bitter zeal, and there be contentions in your hearts; glory not, and be not liars against the truth.
Nawe labha omulola olwiso lwamfu na intungwa yo kwisolola mumioyo jemwe, mtekuya no kwaika olubheyi mulema okwikilisha echimali.
15 For this is not wisdom, descending from above: but earthly, sensual, devilish.
Bhunu tibhwengeso bhunu bhasokele ingulu, nawe bhunu ni bhwechalo, bhutali bhwa chinyamwoyo, ni bhwa masabhwa.
16 For where envying and contention is, there is inconstancy, and every evil work.
Kulwokubha anu luliolwiso no bhwisolole bhulio, ilio inyogele na bhuli bhikolwa bhinyamke.
17 But the wisdom, that is from above, first indeed is chaste, then peaceable, modest, easy to be persuaded, consenting to the good, full of mercy and good fruits, without judging, without dissimulation.
Nawe obhwengeso bhunu obhusoka ingulu, okwamba niyakisi, eiya niyenda omulembe, obhwololo no bhufula, inu ijuye echigongo na matwasho gakisi, itakusolola bhanu bhalebhe, ne chimali.
18 And the fruit of justice is sown in peace, to them that make peace.
Na litwasho lyo bhulengelesi eliyambhwa mu mulembe kubhanu abhakola amagambo go mulembe.
