< James 1 >
1 JAMES, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
IACQVES Iaincoaren eta Iesus Christ Iaunaren cerbitzariac, hamabi leinu barreyatuey, salutatione.
2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
Ene anayeác, bozcario perfectotan educaçue tentatione diuersetara eror çaiteztenean:
3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
Daquiçuelaric ecen çuen fedearen phorogançác patientia engendratzen duela.
4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
Baina patientiác obra perfectoa biu, perfect eta integro çaretençat, deusen falta etzaretelaric.
5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
Eta baldin çuetaric cembeitec sapientia faltaric badu, esca bequió Iaincoari, ceinec emaiten baitraue guciey benignoqui, eta ez reprotchatzen: eta emanen çayó.
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
Baina federequin esca bedi, batre dudatzen eztuela: ecen dudatzen duena, haiceaz erabilten eta tormentatzen den itsas bagaren pare da.
7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
Ezteçala bada estima guiçon harc deus Iaunaganic recebituren duela:
8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
Guiçon gogo doblatacoa, inconstant da bere bide gucietan.
9 Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:
Gloria bedi bada anaye conditione bachotacoa bere goratassunean:
10 But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.
Baina abrats dena, gloria bedi bere bachotassunean: ecen belhar lilia beçala iraganen da.
11 For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.
Ecen nola iguzquia beroarequin goratu eta, erre baita belharra, eta haren lilia erori, eta haren irudi ederra galdu: hala abratsa-ere bere bide gucietan chimalduren da.
12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
Dahatsu da tentatione suffritzen duen guiçona: ecen phorogatu datenean recebituren duque, Iaunac hura maite duteney promettatu drauen vicitzeco coroá.
13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
Nehorc, tentatzen denean, ezterrala Iaincoaz tentatzen dela: ecen Iaincoa ecin tenta daite gaizquiz, eta nehor eztu tentatzen.
14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
Baina batbedera tentatzen da bere guthicia propriaz tiratzen eta bazcatzen denean.
15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
Guero guthiciá, concebitu duenean, ertzen da bekatuz: eta bekatuac acabatu denean, herio engendratzen du.
16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.
Etzaiteztela abusa, ene anaye maiteác.
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
Donatione on oro, eta dohain perfect oro garaitic da arguién Aitaganic iausten dela, cein baithan ezpaita cambiamenduric, ez aldizcazco itzalic.
18 Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
Harc bere vorondatez engendratu vkan gaitu eguiazco hitzaz, haren creaturetaco primitiác beçala guinençát.
19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
Halacotz, ene anaye maiteác, biz guiçon gucia ençutera lehiati, berantcor minçatzera, eta berantcor asserretzera.
20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
Ecen guiçonaren asserreac Iaincoaren iustitiá eztu complitzen.
21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
Halacotz, iraitziric cithalqueria gucia eta malitiazco superfluitatea, emetassunequin recebi eçaçue, çuetan landatu hitza, ceinec salua ahal baititzaque çuen arimác.
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
Eta çareten hitzaren eguile eta ez solament ençule, ceuron buruäc enganatzen dituçuela.
23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
Ecen baldin norbeit hitzaren ençule bada eta ez eguile, hura mirailean bere beguitharte naturala consideratzen duen guiçonaren pare da.
24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
Ecen consideratu vkan du bere buruä, eta ioan içan da, eta bertan ahance çayó nolaco cen.
25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
Baina miratu datena Legue perfectoan, cein baita libertatezcoa, eta hartan perseueratu duqueena, ceren ezpaitate ençule ahanzcor içan, baina obraren eguile: hura dohatsu içanen da bere eguinean.
26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain.
Baldin cembeitec vste badu religioso dela çuen artean, bridatzen eztuelaric bere mihia, baina bere bihotza enganatzen duelaric, halacoaren religionea vano da.
27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
Religione pura eta macula gabea Iainco eta Aita baithan, haur da, çurtzén eta emazte alhargunén visitatzea bere tribulationetan: eta macula gabe bere buruären beguiratzea mundu hunetaric.
