James 5
1 Goe to nowe, ye rich men: weepe, and howle for your miseries that shall come vpon you.
Zvino inzwai, imi vapfumi, chemai muungudze nokuda kwenjodzi iri kuuya pamusoro penyu.
2 Your riches are corrupt, and your garments are moth eaten.
Upfumi hwenyu hwaora, uye nguo dzenyu dzakadyiwa nezviundudzi.
3 Your gold and siluer is cankred, and the rust of them shalbe a witnesse against you, and shall eate your flesh, as it were fire. Ye haue heaped vp treasure for the last dayes.
Goridhe renyu nesirivha zvava nengura. Ngura yazvo ichakupupurirai zvakaipa uye zvichapedza nyama yenyu somoto. Makazvichengetera upfumi mumazuva okupedzisira.
4 Behold, the hire of ye labourers, which haue reaped your fieldes (which is of you kept backe by fraude) cryeth, and the cryes of them which haue reaped, are entred into the eares of the Lord of hostes.
Tarirai mibayiro yamakatadza kupa vashandi venyu vaicheka muminda yenyu iri kudanidzira pamusoro penyu. Kuchema kwavacheki kwasvika munzeve dzaIshe Wamasimba Ose.
5 Ye haue liued in pleasure on the earth, and in wantonnes. Ye haue nourished your heartes, as in a day of slaughter.
Makararama mumafaro panyika uye muchizvikudza. Makakodza mwoyo yenyu pazuva rokuzvibaya.
6 Ye haue condemned and haue killed the iust, and he hath not resisted you.
Makatonga uye mukaponda vanhu vasina mhosva, vakanga vasingapikisani nemi.
7 Be patient therefore, brethren, vnto the comming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman wayteth for the precious fruite of the earth, and hath long patience for it, vntill he receiue the former, and the latter rayne.
Zvino, hama dzangu, ivai nomwoyo murefu, kusvikira pakuuya kwaShe. Tarirai mamiriro anoita murimi kuti aone chibereko chinokosha chenyika uye kuti anoita mwoyo murefu sei pakumirira kwake mvura yomunakamwe nemvura yamasutso.
8 Be ye also patient therefore and settle your hearts: for ye comming of the Lord draweth neere.
Nemiwo, ivai nomwoyo murefu uye mumire nesimba, nokuti kuuya kwaShe kwava pedyo.
9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, least ye be condemned: behold, the iudge standeth before the doore.
Musanyunyutirana, hama dzangu, kuti murege kutongwa. Mutongi amire pamusuo!
10 Take, my brethren, the Prophets for an ensample of suffering aduersitie, and of long patience, which haue spoken in the Name of the Lord.
Hama dzangu, somuenzaniso womwoyo murefu pakutambudzika, tarirai vaprofita vakataura muzita raShe.
11 Beholde, we count them blessed which endure. Ye haue heard of the patience of Iob, and haue knowen what ende the Lord made. For the Lord is very pitifull and mercifull.
Sezvamunoziva, tinoti vakaropafadzwa avo vakatsungirira. Makanzwa zvokutsungirira kwaJobho uye makaona zvakaitwa naIshe pakupedzisira. Ishe azere netsitsi nengoni.
12 But before all thinges, my brethren, sweare not, neither by heauen, nor by earth, nor by any other othe: but let your yea, be yea, and your nay, nay, lest ye fall into condemnation.
Pamusoro pazvo zvose, hama dzangu, musapika, nedenga kana nenyika kana nechimwe chinhu zvacho. “Hongu” yenyu ngaive hongu, uye “Kwete” yenyu ngaive kwete, kuti murege kutongwa.
13 Is any among you afflicted? Let him pray. Is any merie? Let him sing.
Kuno mumwe wenyu anotambudzika here? Ngaanyengetere. Kuno mumwe anofara here? Ngaaimbe nziyo dzokurumbidza.
14 Is any sicke among you? Let him call for the Elders of the Church, and let them pray for him, and anoynt him with oyle in the Name of the Lord.
Kuno mumwe wenyu anorwara here? Ngaadane vakuru vekereke kuti vazomunyengeterera uye vagomuzodza mafuta muzita raIshe.
15 And the prayer of faith shall saue the sicke, and the Lord shall raise him vp: and if he haue committed sinnes, they shalbe forgiuen him.
Uye munyengetero unoitwa mukutenda uchaita kuti munhu anorwara apore; Ishe achamumutsa. Kana akatadza, acharegererwa.
16 Acknowledge your faultes one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed: for the prayer of a righteous man auaileth much, if it be feruent.
Naizvozvo reururai zvivi zvenyu mumwe kuno mumwe uye munyengetererane kuti mugoporeswa. Munyengetero womunhu akarurama une simba uye unoshanda.
17 Helias was a man subiect to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rayne, and it rayned not on the earth for three yeeres and sixe moneths.
Eria akanga ari munhu sesu. Akanyengetera zvine simba kuti kurege kunaya, uye hakuna kunaya panyika kwamakore matatu nehafu.
18 And he prayed againe, and the heauen gaue rayne, and the earth brought forth her fruite.
Uyezve, akanyengetera, denga rikanayisa mvura, nyika ikabereka zvibereko zvayo.
19 Brethren, if any of you hath erred from the trueth, and some man hath conuerted him,
Hama dzangu, kana mumwe wenyu akatsauka kubva pachokwadi uye mumwe akamudzora,
20 Let him know that he which hath conuerted the sinner from going astray out of his way, shall saue a soule from death, and shall hide a multitude of sinnes.
murangarire izvi kuti: Ani naani anodzora mutadzi kubva panzira yokudarika kwake, achamuponesa kubva parufu uye achafukidza zvivi zvizhinji.
