James 3
1 Do not let many be teachers, my brothers, having known that we will receive greater judgment,
Mobanse bame, kamutafula mobeshikwiyisha, pakwinga tobeshikwiyisha nitukomboloshewe mwakutuyumina moyo kupita bantu nabambi.
2 for we all make many stumbles; if anyone does not stumble in word, this one [is] a perfect man, able to also bridle the whole body;
Twense tukute kwipisha mubintu bingi. Na mpwali utalisuntulu pakwamba, okwambeti uyo walulama, pakwinga wela kukonsha kwendelesha cena mubili wakendi wonse.
3 behold, the bits we put into the mouths of the horses for their obeying us, and we direct their whole body;
Tukute kubika kela kang'anowa mukanwa mwa Lihaki kwambeti litunyumfwilenga kayi nekukonsha kututwala kulikonse nkotulayandanga kuya.
4 behold, also the ships, being so great, and being driven by fierce winds, are directed by a very small rudder, wherever the impulse of the [one] steering wills,
Kayi kamubonani bwato, nambi nibunene kayi bukute kunyakwa ne mpepo, nsombi bukute kunyonwa nekatondo kakukwashusha, kwambeti bwenga kulikonse nkwalayandanga labwendeleshenga.
5 so also the tongue is a little member, and boasts greatly; behold, how much forest a little fire kindles!
Neco nicimocimo ne lulemi. Nikabela kang'ana, nsombi kakute kulitunta ne kwinsa bintu binene. Kayi kamubonani kukonempa kwa cisuwa, nsombi cikute kupya ne kamumuni kang'ana ka mulilo.
6 And the tongue [is] a fire, the world of the unrighteousness, so the tongue is set in our members, which is spotting our whole body, and is setting on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
Neco nalo lulemi lulyeti mulilo. Pakwinga luli mukati mumubili wetu, lukute kumwaya bintu byaipa mumubili wonse. Lukute kwipisha bwikalo bwa muntu. Lukute kutenta buyumi bwetu bonse kufuma mpotwalasemwa mpaka pakufwa, mulilowo ukute kufumina ku Gehena. (Geenna g1067)
7 For every nature, both of beasts and of birds, both of creeping things and things of the sea, is subdued, and has been subdued, by the human nature,
Muntu ngaucikonsha kusuwa banyama bamushobo uliwonse, nambi mushobo wabikeni, nambi mushobo wabishi kukalaba, nambi mushobo wa bintu byamumenshi pakwinga walabisuwapo.
8 but no one of men is able to subdue the tongue—[it is] an unruly evil, full of deadly poison;
Nsombi paliya muntu wela kukonsha kuwendelesha lulemi. Lulemi lwaipa, nkalusungwa, lwesula nebusungu.
9 with it we bless the God and Father, and with it we curse the men made according to [the] likeness of God;
Ne lulemi tukute kulumba Lesa Bameshetu, nomba kayi ne lulemi lopelolo tukute kushingana banetu mbwalabumba Lesa, abo bakoshana nendi.
10 out of the same mouth comes forth blessing and cursing; it does not need, my brothers, these things to so happen;
Pamulomo umoumo pakute kufuma kulumba, nekushingana. Mobanse bame, ibi kabitenshikanga.
11 does the fountain out of the same opening pour forth the sweet and the bitter?
Sena pamukalo umoumo ngapafuma menshi aina, kayi ne alula?
12 Is a fig tree able, my brothers, to make olives? Or a vine figs? Neither is salty [water able] to have made sweet water.
Mobanse bame sena citondo ca mukuyu ingacisema bisepo bya mbula, nambi citondo camutumbi ngacikata nkuyu? Cimocimo mukalo wa menshi amucele nkela kupulisha menshi aina.
13 Who [is] wise and intelligent among you? Let him show his works out of good behavior in meekness of wisdom,
Niyani ukute mano kayi ukute kunyumfwisha bintu? Aboneshe mikalilo yakendi yaina, nekwinsa bintu mwakulicepesha.
14 yet, if you have bitter zeal, and rivalry in your heart, do not glory, nor lie against the truth;
Nomba mwakutenga moyo wamunyono ne wakulibona buntu, kamutalitunta pakutotekeshana necancine ncine pakwamba bwepeshi.
15 this wisdom is not descending from above, but earthly, physical, demon-like,
Mano alico ntewo akute kufuma kwilu sobwe, akute kufuma kubantu nekumishimu yaipa yapano pacishi capanshi.
16 for where zeal and rivalry [are], there is insurrection and every evil matter;
Pakwinga pali munyono, nekulibona buntu, pali minyungwe nencito yaipa yamushobo uliwonse.
17 but the wisdom from above, first, indeed, is pure, then peaceable, gentle, well-convinced, full of kindness and good fruits, uncontentious, and unhypocritical—
Nomba mano alafumunga kwilu, cakutanguna akute kuba alulama, alumuno, kayi akulicepesha, kayi eshikunyumfwa. Mano ankumbo, akute kusema bisepo byaina. Mano alico nkasalululu, nambi kulibonesha.
18 and the fruit of righteousness in peace is sown to those making peace.
Neco mbuto shikute kubyalwa ne bantu mulumuno shikute kuleta bululami.
