James 5
1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl in your miseries, which shall come upon you.
Nangmouh tami ka tangrengnaw ka lawk heh thai awh haw, nangmae lathueng rucatnae a tho han kecu dawkvah, hramki khuikap awh.
2 Your riches are corrupted: and your garments are motheaten.
Na hnopainaw teh koung a hmawn teh, na khohnanaw hai ahri ni koung a ca toe.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered: and the rust of them shall be for a testimony against you, and shall eat your flesh like fire. You have stored up to yourselves wrath against the last days.
Nangmae sui ngunnaw hai a ekko toe. Hote ekko teh, nangmouh kapanuekkhaikung lah ao han. Nangmae na tak hah hmai patetlah a ca han. A hnukteng e hnin dawk hane hnopai bo na pâkhueng awh vaw.
4 Behold the hire of the labourers, who have reaped down your fields, which by fraud has been kept back by you, crieth: and the cry of them hath entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.
Thai awh haw, na law dawk thaw katawknaw hah kutphu poe laipalah, na dum awh teh hote aphu ni a hram toe. Cang ka a naw e hram lawk haiyah kalvan Cathut e a hnâ dawk a kâen toe.
5 You have feasted upon earth: and in riotousness you have nourished your hearts, in the day of slaughter.
Nangmouh teh het talai nawmnae dawk phunep awh toe.
6 You have condemned and put to death the Just One, and he resisted you not.
Tami kalan hah lawk na ceng awh teh, na thei awh toe. Ahni nihai nangmouh na ngang awh hoeh.
7 Be patient therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth: patiently bearing till he receive the early and latter rain.
Hatdawkvah ka hmaunawnghanaw, Bawipa a tho hoehroukrak na lungsaw sak awh. Law ka phaw niyah a law dawk e aphu kaawm anhla a pawhik hah hmaloe e ratui hoi a hnukteng e ratui totouh lungsaw laihoi ouk a ring awh.
8 Be you therefore also patient, and strengthen your hearts: for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
Nangmouh haiyah na lung saw awh haw, nangmae na lungthin caksak awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh Bawipa a tho nahane atueng teh a hnaica toe.
9 Grudge not, brethren, one against another, that you may not be judged. Behold the judge standeth before the door.
Hmaunawnghanaw, lawkcengnae na khang awh hoeh nahanlah, buet touh hoi buet touh yon kâpen awh hanh. Khenhaw! lawkcengkung Bawi teh takhang hmalah sut a kangdue toe.
10 Take, my brethren, for an example of suffering evil, of labour and patience, the prophets, who spoke in the name of the Lord.
Ka hmaunawnghanaw Cathut e min lahoi ka dei e profetnaw e patangpalai a khangnae hah khetsin hanelah pahnim awh hanh.
11 Behold, we account them blessed who have endured. You have heard of the patience of Job, and you have seen the end of the Lord, that the Lord is merciful and compassionate.
Ka panguep e taminaw teh a yawhawi awh telah maimouh ni pouk awh. Job e a panguepnae teh nangmouh ni na thai awh toe. Cathut ni a hnukteng poung bout a pahren teh a lungma e hai na panue awh.
12 But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath. But let your speech be, yea, yea: no, no: that you fall not under judgment.
Hmaunawnghanaw, thoebonae hah hoe roun awh. Kalvan khet hoi thoebo awh hanh. Talai khet hoi thoebo awh hanh. Hothloilah, bangpatet e thoebonae lahoi hai thoebo awh hanh. Yon lawkcengnae hoi na hlout awh nahan, nangmae na lawk hah, ue teh ue tet awh, nahoeh teh nahoeh tet awh.
13 Is any of you sad? Let him pray. Is he cheerful in mind? Let him sing.
Nangmouh thung dawk runae kâhmo e awm pawiteh, ratoum naseh. A lung kahawi e awm pawiteh pholennae la sak naseh.
14 Is any man sick among you? Let him bring in the priests of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.
Ka pataw e awm pawiteh kawhmoun thung e kacuenaw hah kaw naseh. Ahnimouh ni Bawipa min lahoi satui a hluk vaiteh ratoum pouh naseh.
15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick man: and the Lord shall raise him up: and if he be in sins, they shall be forgiven him.
Yuemnae lahoi ratoum e ni ka pataw e hah a dam sak han. Bawipa ni a thaw sak vaiteh yonnae a sakpayon nakunghai a ngaithoum han.
16 Confess therefore your sins one to another: and pray one for another, that you may be saved. For the continual prayer of a just man availeth much.
Hatdawkvah dam sak lah na o awh nahan, buet touh hoi buet touh mae yonnae hah pâpho awh nateh, buet touh hoi buet touh hanelah, ratoum awh. Tami kalannaw e ratoumnae a hue teh bahu ao.
17 Elias was a man passible like unto us: and with prayer he prayed that it might not rain upon the earth, and it rained not for three years and six months.
Elijah heh maimouh patet e tami rumram ei, khorak hoeh nahanlah puenghoi a ratoum navah, kum thum touh hoi thapa yung taruk totouh khorak laipalah ao.
18 And he prayed again: and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.
Hahoi, bout a ratoum navah kalvan hoi kho a rak teh, talai ni a pawhik bout a pâw sak.
19 My brethren, if any of you err from the truth, and one convert him:
Hmaunawnghanaw, nangmouh thung dawk e buetbuet touh ni lawkkatang lamthung a phen navah, buetbuet touh ni bout bankhai pawiteh,
20 He must know that he who causeth a sinner to be converted from the error of his way, shall save his soul from death, and shall cover a multitude of sins.
tamikayon lam payonnae koehoi bout ka bankhai e tami teh lam ka phen e tami e hringnae hah duenae koehoi a rungngang teh yonnae hah a ramuk pouh toe tie hah panuek naseh.
