< James 4 >

1 From where [are] wars and fightings among you? [Is it] not from here, out of your passions warring in your members?
یُشْماکَں مَدھْیے سَمَرا رَنَشْچَ کُتَ اُتْپَدْیَنْتے؟ یُشْمَدَنْگَشِبِراشْرِتابھْیَح سُکھیچّھابھْیَح کِں نوتْپَدْیَنْتے؟
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;
یُویَں وانْچھَتھَ کِنْتُ ناپْنُتھَ، یُویَں نَرَہَتْیامْ اِیرْشْیانْچَ کُرُتھَ کِنْتُ کرِتارْتھا بھَوِتُں نَ شَکْنُتھَ، یُویَں یُدھْیَتھَ رَنَں کُرُتھَ چَ کِنْتْوَپْراپْتاسْتِشْٹھَتھَ، یَتو ہیتوح پْرارْتھَناں نَ کُرُتھَ۔
3 you ask, and you do not receive, because you ask badly, that you may spend [it] in your pleasures.
یُویَں پْرارْتھَیَدھْوے کِنْتُ نَ لَبھَدھْوے یَتو ہیتوح سْوَسُکھَبھوگیشُ وْیَیارْتھَں کُ پْرارْتھَیَدھْوے۔
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.
ہے وْیَبھِچارِنو وْیَبھِچارِنْیَشْچَ، سَںسارَسْیَ یَتْ مَیتْرْیَں تَدْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ شاتْرَوَمِتِ یُویَں کِں نَ جانِیتھَ؟ اَتَ ایوَ یَح کَشْچِتْ سَںسارَسْیَ مِتْرَں بھَوِتُمْ اَبھِلَشَتِ سَ ایویشْوَرَسْیَ شَتْرُ رْبھَوَتِ۔
5 Or, do you think that the Writing says emptily, “The Spirit that has dwelt in us yearns with envy,”
یُویَں کِں مَنْیَدھْوے؟ شاسْتْرَسْیَ واکْیَں کِں پھَلَہِینَں بھَویتْ؟ اَسْمَدَنْتَرْواسِی یَ آتْما سَ وا کِمْ اِیرْشْیارْتھَں پْریمَ کَروتِ؟
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.”
تَنَّہِ کِنْتُ سَ پْرَتُلَں وَرَں وِتَرَتِ تَسْمادْ اُکْتَماسْتے یَتھا، آتْمابھِمانَلوکاناں وِپَکْشو بھَوَتِیشْوَرَح۔ کِنْتُ تینَیوَ نَمْریبھْیَح پْرَسادادْ دِییَتے وَرَح۔۔
7 Be subject, then, to God; stand up against the Devil, and he will flee from you;
اَتَایوَ یُویَمْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ وَشْیا بھَوَتَ شَیَتانَں سَںرُنْدھَ تینَ سَ یُشْمَتَّح پَلایِشْیَتے۔
8 draw near to God, and He will draw near to you; cleanse hands, you sinners! And purify hearts, you split-souled!
اِیشْوَرَسْیَ سَمِیپَوَرْتِّنو بھَوَتَ تینَ سَ یُشْماکَں سَمِیپَوَرْتِّی بھَوِشْیَتِ۔ ہے پاپِنَح، یُویَں سْوَکَرانْ پَرِشْکُرُدھْوَں۔ ہے دْوِمَنولوکاح، یُویَں سْوانْتَحکَرَنانِ شُچِینِ کُرُدھْوَں۔
9 Be exceedingly afflicted, and mourn, and weep, let your laughter be turned to mourning, and the joy to heaviness;
یُویَمْ اُدْوِجَدھْوَں شوچَتَ وِلَپَتَ چَ، یُشْماکَں ہاسَح شوکایَ، آنَنْدَشْچَ کاتَرَتایَے پَرِوَرْتّیتاں۔
10 be made low before the LORD, and He will exalt you.
پْرَبھوح سَمَکْشَں نَمْرا بھَوَتَ تَسْماتْ سَ یُشْمانْ اُچِّیکَرِشْیَتِ۔
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.
ہے بھْراتَرَح، یُویَں پَرَسْپَرَں ما دُوشَیَتَ۔ یَح کَشْچِدْ بھْراتَرَں دُوشَیَتِ بھْراتُ رْوِچارَنْچَ کَروتِ سَ وْیَوَسْتھاں دُوشَیَتِ وْیَوَسْتھایاشْچَ وِچارَں کَروتِ۔ تْوَں یَدِ وْیَوَسْتھایا وِچارَں کَروشِ تَرْہِ وْیَوَسْتھاپالَیِتا نَ بھَوَسِ کِنْتُ وِچارَیِتا بھَوَسِ۔
12 One is the lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy; you—who are you that judges the other?
اَدْوِتِییو وْیَوَسْتھاپَکو وِچارَیِتا چَ سَ ایواسْتے یو رَکْشِتُں ناشَیِتُنْچَ پارَیَتِ۔ کِنْتُ کَسْتْوَں یَتْ پَرَسْیَ وِچارَں کَروشِ؟
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,”
اَدْیَ شْوو وا وَیَمْ اَمُکَنَگَرَں گَتْوا تَتْرَ وَرْشَمیکَں یاپَیَنْتو وانِجْیَں کَرِشْیامَح لابھَں پْراپْسْیامَشْچیتِ کَتھاں بھاشَمانا یُویَمْ اِدانِیں شرِنُتَ۔
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;
شْوَح کِں گھَٹِشْیَتے تَدْ یُویَں نَ جانِیتھَ یَتو جِیوَنَں وو بھَویتْ کِیدرِکْ تَتُّ باشْپَسْوَرُوپَکَں، کْشَنَماتْرَں بھَویدْ درِشْیَں لُپْیَتے چَ تَتَح پَرَں۔
15 instead, you [ought] to say, “If the LORD may will, we will live, and do this or that”;
تَدَنُکْتْوا یُشْماکَمْ اِدَں کَتھَنِییَں پْرَبھورِچّھاتو وَیَں یَدِ جِیوامَسْتَرْہْییتَتْ کَرْمَّ تَتْ کَرْمَّ وا کَرِشْیامَ اِتِ۔
16 but now you glory in your pride; all such glorying is evil;
کِنْتْوِدانِیں یُویَں گَرْوَّواکْیَیح شْلاگھَنَں کُرُدھْوے تادرِشَں سَرْوَّں شْلاگھَنَں کُتْسِتَمیوَ۔
17 to him, then, knowing to do good, and not doing [it], it is sin to him.
اَتو یَح کَشْچِتْ سَتْکَرْمَّ کَرْتَّں وِدِتْوا تَنَّ کَروتِ تَسْیَ پاپَں جایَتے۔
