James 3
1 My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receiue the greater condemnation.
Ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, ti aingĩ anyu magĩrĩirwo nĩ gũtuĩka arutani, tondũ nĩ mũũĩ atĩ ithuĩ arĩa tũrutanaga nĩtũgaatuĩrwo ituĩro rĩa hinya gũkĩra andũ arĩa angĩ.
2 For in many things we sinne all. If any man sinne not in word, he is a perfect man, and able to bridle all the body.
Ithuothe nĩtũhĩngĩcagwo nĩ maũndũ maingĩ. Mũndũ angĩkorwo ndarĩ na mahĩtia thĩinĩ wa maũndũ marĩa aragia-rĩ, ũcio nĩ mũkinyanĩru kũna, na nĩahotete kũriĩra mwĩrĩ wake wothe.
3 Beholde, we put bittes into the horses mouthes, that they should obey vs, and we turne about all their bodie.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa twekĩra mbarathi mĩkwa tũnua nĩguo itwathĩkĩre-rĩ, nĩtũhotaga kũgarũra nyamũ ĩyo ĩrĩ yothe.
4 Behold also the shippes, which though they be so great, and are driuen of fierce windes, yet are they turned about with a very small rudder, whither soeuer the gouernour listeth.
Ningĩ ta rorai ũhoro wa marikabu ũrĩ ta kĩonereria. O na gũtuĩka nĩ nene na itwaragwo nĩ rũhuho rũrĩ na hinya-rĩ, nĩigarũragwo na gathukani kanini, ikarorio o kũrĩa mũtwarithia wacio ekwenda gũciroria.
5 Euen so the tongue is a litle member, and boasteth of great things: beholde, howe great a thing a litle fire kindleth.
Ũguo no taguo rũrĩmĩ rũhaana. Nĩ kĩĩga kĩnini kĩa mwĩrĩ, no nĩ rwĩĩkagĩrĩra mũno. Ta mwĩciiriei ũrĩa mũtitũ mũnene ũgwatagio mwaki nĩ gathandĩ o kanini.
6 And the tongue is fire, yea, a worlde of wickednesse: so is the tongue set among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature, and it is set on fire of hell. (Geenna g1067)
Ningĩ rũrĩmĩ nĩ mwaki, tondũ rũiyũrĩte mĩthemba yothe ya maũndũ ma waganu thĩinĩ wa ciĩga cia mwĩrĩ. Rũthũkagia mwĩrĩ wothe, rũkagwatia mwaki mũtũũrĩre wothe wa mũndũ, naruo rwene rũkoragwo rũmundĩtio mwaki nĩ Jehanamu. (Geenna g1067)
7 For the whole nature of beasts, and of birds, and of creeping things, and things of the sea is tamed, and hath bene tamed of the nature of man.
Nyamũ cia mĩthemba yothe, na nyoni, na nyamũ iria itambaga thĩ, na nyamũ cia iria-inĩ rĩrĩa inene ciothe nĩihooreragio na cianahoorerio nĩ mũndũ,
8 But the tongue can no man tame. It is an vnruly euill, full of deadly poyson.
no gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũngĩhota kũhooreria rũrĩmĩ. Nĩruo kĩndũ kĩũru gĩtangĩkindĩria na rũiyũrĩtwo nĩ thumu wa kũũragana.
9 Therewith blesse we God euen the Father, and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.
Tũgoocaga Mwathani, o we Ithe witũ, na rũrĩmĩ, na tũkaruma andũ naruo, o acio mombĩtwo marĩ na mũhianĩre wa Ngai.
10 Out of one mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing: my brethren, these things ought not so to be.
Kanua o kau-rĩ, no ko koimaga ũgooci na gakoima irumi. Ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, ũguo tiguo kwagĩrĩire gũtuĩka.
11 Doeth a fountaine send forth at one place sweete water and bitter?
Kaĩ maaĩ mega na maaĩ ma cumbĩ mangĩtherũka kuuma gĩthima kĩmwe?
12 Can ye figge tree, my brethren, bring forth oliues, either a vine figges? so can no fountaine make both salt water and sweete.
Ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, mũkũyũ no ũhote gũciara ndamaiyũ, kana mũthabibũ ũciare ngũyũ? O nakĩo gĩthima kĩa maaĩ ma cumbĩ gĩtingĩtherũka maaĩ mega.
13 Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew by good conuersation his workes in meekenesse of wisdome.
Thĩinĩ wanyu-rĩ, nũũ ũrĩ na ũũgĩ na agataũkĩrwo nĩ maũndũ? Mũndũ ũcio nĩakĩonanie maũndũ macio na ũndũ wa mũtũũrĩre wake mwega, na ciĩko ciĩkĩĩtwo na njĩra ya kwĩnyiihia kũrĩa kuumanaga na ũũgĩ.
14 But if ye haue bitter enuying and strife in your hearts, reioyce not, neither be liars against the trueth.
No mũngĩkorwo ngoro-inĩ cianyu nĩ mũtũũragia ũiru na ũhoro wa kwenda kwĩyambatĩria-rĩ, mũtikae kwĩrahĩra ũndũ ũcio kana mũtuĩke a gũkaana ũhoro wa ma.
15 This wisedome descendeth not from aboue, but is earthly, sensuall, and deuilish.
“Ũũgĩ” ta ũcio tiguo ũikũrũkaga uumĩte igũrũ, no nĩ wa thĩ ĩno, na ti wa kĩĩroho, ũcio nĩ ũũgĩ wa mũcukani.
16 For where enuying and strife is, there is sedition, and all maner of euill workes.
Nĩgũkorwo harĩa harĩ na ũiru na ũhoro wa kwenda kwĩyambatĩria-rĩ, hau nĩho hakoragwo na ngũĩ na ciĩko ciothe cia waganu.
17 But the wisedome that is from aboue, is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, easie to be intreated, full of mercie and good fruites, without iudging, and without hipocrisie.
No ũũgĩ ũrĩa uumaga igũrũ o mbere nĩ mũtheru; ningĩ nĩwendete thayũ, na nĩũcaayanagĩra, na nĩwĩnyiihagia, na nĩ ũiyũrĩtwo nĩ tha na maciaro mega, ningĩ ndũthutũkanagia, na ndũrĩ ũhinga.
18 And the fruite of righteousnesse is sowen in peace, of them that make peace.
Nao ateithũrani arĩa mahaandaga thayũ-rĩ, magethaga maciaro ma ũthingu.
