James 4
1 From where [are] wars and fightings among you? [Is it] not from here, out of your passions warring in your members?
Inte garsan diza oolaynne ooshay awape yidee? Inte wozinan diza amotethafe dendida oola gidenee?
2 You desire, and do not have, [so] you murder; and you are zealous, and are not able to attain, [so] you fight and war; and you do not have, because of your not asking;
Inte amottista shin demekista. Inte asi wodhistanne kehi amotista shin demana danda7ekista. Inte inte garisan ooyetiza gishanne ooletiza gish qasse wosontta gish intes imettena.
3 you ask, and you do not receive, because you ask badly, that you may spend [it] in your pleasures.
Inte inte asho ufaysanaas iitta qofan wosiza gish wosidaysa inte ekekista.
4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Have you not known that friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whoever, then, may intend to be a friend of the world, he is designated [as] an enemy of God.
Inteno laymatizayto alamera siiqetethi Xoossara morketeth gididaysa ereketii? Hessa gish hayssa alamezara siiqitethi koyzay wurikka Xoossas morke.
5 Or, do you think that the Writing says emptily, “The Spirit that has dwelt in us yearns with envy,”
Woykko gesha maxaafa gidon “nunan izi ayssiida ayanay nu ziaysa gidana mala daro amottees” gizaysi intes coo mela gidayssa milatize?
6 but [God] gives greater grace, for this reason it says, “God sets Himself up against proud ones, and He gives grace to lowly ones.”
Gido attin izi ba kiiyateth nuus gujji immees. Maxafaykka “Xoossi ootoranchatara eqettees, ashikistas qase ba kiiyateth immees” giday hessasikko.
7 Be subject, then, to God; stand up against the Devil, and he will flee from you;
Hessa gish intena Xoossas harisiite. Dabuloosara eqitite, izi intefe baqatana.
8 draw near to God, and He will draw near to you; cleanse hands, you sinners! And purify hearts, you split-souled!
Xoossako shiiqqite izikka intekko shiiqqana. Inteno nagaranchato! inte inte kushe geeshshite, inte nam77u qofan qaxiizayto, inte inte wozina geeshshite.
9 Be exceedingly afflicted, and mourn, and weep, let your laughter be turned to mourning, and the joy to heaviness;
Darsi qoppite; muyagiite; yekiite. Inte michay yehon; ufaysay qasse qadhetethan siimo.
10 be made low before the LORD, and He will exalt you.
Goda sinththan inte intena kawushite qasse izi intena dhooqu dhooqu histtana.
11 Do not speak against one another, brothers; he who is speaking against a brother, and is judging his brother, speaks against law, and judges law, and if you judge law, you are not a doer of law but a judge.
Ta ishato inte inte garisan issay issay motoopite ba isha motizadeynne ba isha bolla piridizadey woga bolla iitta hasa7esinne woga bolla piridees. Ne woga bolla pirdizade attin woga naagizade gidakka.
12 One is the lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy; you—who are you that judges the other?
Woga wothidadeynne pirdizadey issade xalalakko. Izikka dhaysanaasinne ashanaas danda7izadekko. Gido attin neni ne lagge bolla pirdizadey oone?
13 Go, now, you who are saying, “Today and tomorrow we will go on to such a city, and will pass there one year, and traffic, and make gain,”
Inte hachchchi woykko wontto hano ha katamayo woykko hiino he katamayo nu baana, biidi hen izin issi laythth utananne zal77i wodhisana gizayto ane haa siyte.
14 who does not know the thing of tomorrow; for what is your life? For it is a vapor that is appearing for a little [while], and then is vanishing;
Wonto hananayssa inte erekista. Inte shemppoy iza azee? Inteni guutha wode ayfes bettidi dhayiza haththa penta malakko.
15 instead, you [ought] to say, “If the LORD may will, we will live, and do this or that”;
Hassa gaanappe “Goda shene gidikonne nu paxxa dikko, hessakka hayssaka oothana” gaanas intes bessees.
16 but now you glory in your pride; all such glorying is evil;
Ha7i gidiko inte otoretethan ceqetista. Hessa mala oothoretethi wurikka iitta.
17 to him, then, knowing to do good, and not doing [it], it is sin to him.
Hessa gish loo7o gidizayssa oothanas besizaysa erishe oothonttades nagara gidana.
