James 5
1 COME now, ye rich men, let your tears run down, howling over your miseries which are coming upon you.
αγε νυν οι πλουσιοι κλαυσατε ολολυζοντες επι ταις ταλαιπωριαις υμων ταις επερχομεναις
2 Your wealth is corrupted, and your robes are moth-eaten.
ο πλουτος υμων σεσηπεν και τα ιματια υμων σητοβρωτα γεγονεν
3 Your gold and silver is cankered with rust; and the rust upon them is a testimony against you, and shall eat into your flesh as fire. Ye have heaped up treasures in the last days.
ο χρυσος υμων και ο αργυρος κατιωται και ο ιος αυτων εις μαρτυριον υμιν εσται και φαγεται τας σαρκας υμων ως πυρ εθησαυρισατε εν εσχαταις ημεραις
4 Behold, the wages of the workmen who have mowed down your fields, which is kept back by you from them, crieth out: and the loud moans of the reapers are entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.
ιδου ο μισθος των εργατων των αμησαντων τας χωρας υμων ο απεστερημενος αφ υμων κραζει και αι βοαι των θερισαντων εις τα ωτα κυριου σαβαωθ εισεληλυθασιν
5 Ye have gormandized upon the earth, and lived in every luxury: ye have pampered your hearts, as in a day of feasting on the victim slain.
ετρυφησατε επι της γης και εσπαταλησατε εθρεψατε τας καρδιας υμων ως εν ημερα σφαγης
6 Ye have falsely condemned, ye have murdered the just man; nor doth he resist you.
κατεδικασατε εφονευσατε τον δικαιον ουκ αντιτασσεται υμιν
7 Be patient therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See, the husbandman waits for the precious fruit of the earth, in patient expectation for it, till it receives the former and the latter rain.
μακροθυμησατε ουν αδελφοι εως της παρουσιας του κυριου ιδου ο γεωργος εκδεχεται τον τιμιον καρπον της γης μακροθυμων επ αυτω εως αν λαβη υετον πρωιμον και οψιμον
8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts; for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
μακροθυμησατε και υμεις στηριξατε τας καρδιας υμων οτι η παρουσια του κυριου ηγγικεν
9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest be ye condemned: lo! the judge standeth at the gates.
μη στεναζετε κατ αλληλων αδελφοι ινα μη κατακριθητε ιδου κριτης προ των θυρων εστηκεν
10 My brethren, take a pattern for suffering affliction, and patience from the prophets, who have spoken to you in the name of the Lord.
υποδειγμα λαβετε της κακοπαθειας αδελφοι μου και της μακροθυμιας τους προφητας οι ελαλησαν τω ονοματι κυριου
11 Behold, we esteem those blessed who patiently endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; for the Lord is full of bowels of mercy, and tenderly compassionate.
ιδου μακαριζομεν τους υπομενοντας την υπομονην ιωβ ηκουσατε και το τελος κυριου ειδετε οτι πολυσπλαγχνος εστιν ο κυριος και οικτιρμων
12 But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, nor by earth, nor by any other oath: but let your yea be yea, and your no, no; that ye fall not under condemnation.
προ παντων δε αδελφοι μου μη ομνυετε μητε τον ουρανον μητε την γην μητε αλλον τινα ορκον ητω δε υμων το ναι ναι και το ου ου ινα μη εις υποκρισιν πεσητε
13 Is any man among you under afflictions? let him pray. Is any man happy in mind? let him sing psalms.
κακοπαθει τις εν υμιν προσευχεσθω ευθυμει τις ψαλλετω
14 Is any man sick among you? let him send for the presbyters of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
ασθενει τις εν υμιν προσκαλεσασθω τους πρεσβυτερους της εκκλησιας και προσευξασθωσαν επ αυτον αλειψαντες αυτον ελαιω εν τω ονοματι του κυριου
15 and the prayer of faith shall recover the sick man, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he hath committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
και η ευχη της πιστεως σωσει τον καμνοντα και εγερει αυτον ο κυριος καν αμαρτιας η πεποιηκως αφεθησεται αυτω
16 Confess your offences one to another, and pray for one another, that ye may be healed. The energetic prayer of a righteous man is mightily prevalent.
εξομολογεισθε αλληλοις τα παραπτωματα και ευχεσθε υπερ αλληλων οπως ιαθητε πολυ ισχυει δεησις δικαιου ενεργουμενη
17 Elias was a man of like feelings with us, and he prayed fervently that it should not rain; and there fell no rain on the earth during three years and six months.
ηλιας ανθρωπος ην ομοιοπαθης ημιν και προσευχη προσηυξατο του μη βρεξαι και ουκ εβρεξεν επι της γης ενιαυτους τρεις και μηνας εξ
18 And he prayed again, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth shot up its fruit.
και παλιν προσηυξατο και ο ουρανος υετον εδωκεν και η γη εβλαστησεν τον καρπον αυτης
19 Brethren, if any man among you should have erred from the truth, and one convert him;
αδελφοι εαν τις εν υμιν πλανηθη απο της αληθειας και επιστρεψη τις αυτον
20 let him know, that he that converteth a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death, and will cover a multitude of sins.
γινωσκετω οτι ο επιστρεψας αμαρτωλον εκ πλανης οδου αυτου σωσει ψυχην εκ θανατου και καλυψει πληθος αμαρτιων
