Jacob 2
1 My brothers, do not hold the faith of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah of glory with partiality.
N kpiiba, yinba yaaba n daani ti Diedo Jesu Kilisiti yua n pia ti kpiagidi yeni, laa pundi yin ya tiendi mi gagidima bi niba siiga.
2 For if someone with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your synagogue, and a poor person in filthy clothing also comes in;
Min bagi yaala tie line: O nilo ya kua yi taanli nni ki pili wula ñoagibila, ki go yie ya tiadi n pia ti kpiagidi, o luodo mo n kua ki yie a kpacala.
3 and you pay special attention to the one who wears the fine clothing, and say, "Sit here in a good place;" but you tell the poor person, "Stand there," or "Sit by my footstool."
Li ya tie ke yi jigini yua n yie ya tiayiekaadi n pia ti kpiagidi ki yedi o: “Kali ne ti jigidi kaanu,” ki yedi o luodo mo ya se ne” yaaka: “Kali tiipo n taana kani”.
4 Have you not discriminated among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
Naani yii tieni mi gagidima yi yama nni ki go bigidi leni li yantiabiadili kaa?
5 Listen, my beloved brothers. Did not God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?
N kpibuadiba, cengi mani, naani U Tienu ki gandi yaaba n tie luoda ŋanduna nuni po ke ban tua piada li dandanli nni, ki go baa wan niani ke o baa pa yaaba n bua o kuli ya diema kaa?
6 But you have dishonored the poor person. Do not the rich oppress you, and personally drag you before the courts?
Ama yinba, yi fali o luodo. Laa tie a piada kaa mabindi yi ki caani yi li bujiali kani?
7 Do not they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?
Bani kaa sugidi ya yeŋanli n ye yi niinni?
8 However, if you fulfill the royal law, according to the Scripture, "You are to love your neighbor as yourself," you do well.
Yi ya kubi U Tienu diema balimaama nani lan diani maama li ŋani, mani yaama n yedi: “ŋan bua a nisaali lielo nani ŋan bua a yuli maama.”
9 But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.
Ama yi ya tiendi mi gagidima bi niba siiga, yi tiendi ti tuonbiadi, li balimaama mo buni ki cuo yi kelima yi miidi ma.
10 For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.
Kelima yua n kubi li balimaama ki nan miidi ba balimayenma bebe, pia i tagili mi kuli po.
11 For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," also said, "Do not commit murder." Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.
Kelima yua n yedi: “ŋan da conbi” wani n go yedi: “ŋan da kpa o nilo” moko. Lanwani a yaa conbi ki nan kpa o nilo, a tua li balimaama miidikoa.
12 So speak, and so do, as those who are to be judged by a law of freedom.
Yin ya maadi mani ki go tiendi, ki bani ke U Tienu baa jia leni yi ti buudi ki ŋua leni ya balimaama n puuni mi faabima.
13 For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
U Tienu ya jia ti buudi ya yogunu, o kan gbadi mi niŋima yaa nilo n kaa den gbadi mi niŋima o lielo po yaapo. Mi niŋigbadima paani li bujiali.
14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith, but has no works? Can faith save him?
N kpiiba, o nilo ya yedi ke o pia li dandanli ki naa pia a tuona, li pia be fuoma? Naani o dandanli yeni baa fidi ki tindi o bi?
15 And if a brother or sister is poorly clothed and may be lacking in daily food,
Li ya tie ke yi siiga joa bi pua luo ti tiayiekaadi ki go luo daali kuli bonjekaala,
16 and one of you tells them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled;" and yet you did not give them the things the body needs, what good is it?
ke yi siiga yendo yedi o: “Ya kuni leni mi yanduanma, ki ban yeli mi fantama ki go je ki guo,” ama ki naa puni o yaala n tie o yema po tiladi, li pia be fuoma?
17 Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.
Li tie yenma leni li dandanli: li yaa pia tuona li kpe.
18 But someone will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without works, and I by my works will show you my faith.
Ama nilo ya yedi: “Fini a pia li dandanli, n mo pia a tuona” n baa yedi o: “waani a dandanli yaali n kaa pia tuona n mo baa waani a n dandanli kelima n tuona po.”
19 You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe, and shudder.
A daani ke U Tienu ye ki tie yendo bebe, a tieni ke li ŋani. Ama mu cicibiadimu moko daani yeni ki jie ki digibi.
20 But do you want to know, foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless?
Fini o yanluodaano na, naani a bua ki bandi ke ya dandanli n ki pia a tuona tie fanma bi?
21 Wasn't Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?
Naani ti yaaja Abalaŋama ki den baa li moamoasaali kelima a tuona po wan den padi o biga Isaaka li padibinbinli po kaa?
22 You see that faith worked with his works, and by works faith was perfected;
A laa ke o dandanli den taani ki yegi leni o tuona, ke o tuona yeni mo den teni ke o dandanli ŋani ki dagidi cain.
23 and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "And Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness;" and he was called the friend of God.
Yeni i Diani n yedi yaala tieni: “Abalaŋama den daani U Tienu ke U Tienu den coadi opo la ke li tie teginma.” Bi den yi o U Tienu danli.
24 You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.
Yi laa, o nilo baa li moamoansaali kelima o tuona po, laa tie kelima o dandanli bebe po ka.
25 In like manner was not Rahab the prostitute also justified by works, in that she received the messengers, and sent them out another way?
Li go tie yeni Laŋaba li poconconli po. O den baa li moamoansaali o tuona po, kelima o den ga bi tondiba cangu ki teni ke bi tagini santo ki kuni.
26 For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is dead.
Lanwani, nani ya gbannandi n ki pia naano n kpe maama, ya dandanli n ki pia tuona moko kpe yene.
