< James 2 >

1 My brothers, do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory with partiality.
Ya ku 'yan'uwana, muddin kuna rike da bangaskiyar ku ga Ubangijinmu Yesu Almasihu, Ubangijin daukaka, kada ku nuna bambanci ga wadansu mutane.
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;
Idan wani mutum ya halarci taron ku da zobban zinariya da tufafi masu kyau, wani matalauci kuma ya shigo da tufafi marasa tsabta.
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."
Sa'adda kuka kula da mai tufafi masu kyau nan, har kuka ce masa, “Idan ka yarda ka zauna a nan wuri mai kyau,'' mataulacin nan kuwa kuka ce masa, “Kai ka tsaya daga can,” ko kuwa, “Zauna a nan kasa a gaba na,”
4 Have you not discriminated among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
Ashe ba kuna zartar da hukunci a tsakanin ku ba ke nan? Ba kun zama alkalai na mungayen tunani kenan ba?
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?
Ku saurara, ya 'yan'uwana kaunatattu, ashe, Allah bai zabi matalautan duniyar nan su zama mawadata cikin bangaskiya ba, su kuma zama magada a cikin mulkin nan da ya yi wa masu kaunar sa alkawari ba?
6 But you have dishonored the poor person. Do not the rich oppress you, and personally drag you before the courts?
Amma, kun wulakanta matalauta! Ashe, ba masu arzikin ne suke matsa maku ba? Ba su ne kuwa suke jan ku zuwa gaban shari'a ba?
7 Do not they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?
Ba kuma sune ke sabon sunan nan mai girma da ake kiran ku da shi ba?
8 However, if you fulfill the royal law, according to the Scripture, "You are to love your neighbor as yourself," you do well.
Duk da haka, idan kuka cika muhimmiyar shari'ar da nassi ya ce, “Ka kaunaci makwabcin ka kamar kanka,” to, madalla.
9 But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.
Amma in kun nuna bambanci, kun yi zunubi kenan, shari'a ta same ku da laifin keta umarni.
10 For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.
Duk wanda yake kiyaye dukan shari'a, amma ya yi tuntube a hanya daya kadai, ya sabi shari'a gaba daya ke nan.
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.
Domin wanda ya ce, “Kada ka yi zina,” shi ne kuma ya ce, “Kada ka yi kisan kai.” Idan ba ka yi zina ba amma ka yi kisan kai, ai, ka zama mai taka shari'a kenan.
12 So speak, and so do, as those who are to be judged by a law of freedom.
Saboda haka, ku yi magana ku kuma yi aiki kamar wadanda za a hukunta ta wurin 'yantacciyar shari'a.
13 For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
Gama hukunci yana zuwa ba tare da jinkai ba ga wadanda ba su nuna jinkai. Jinkai ya yi nasara a kan hukunci.
14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith, but has no works? Can faith save him?
Ina amfanin haka, 'yan'uwana, idan wani ya ce yana da bangaskiya, kuma ba shi da ayyuka? Wannan bangaskiyar ba za ta cece shi ba, ko za ta iya?
15 And if a brother or sister is poorly clothed and may be lacking in daily food,
Misali, idan wani dan'uwa ko 'yar'uwa ba su da tufa mai kyau ko suna rashin abincin yini.
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?
Misali, idan waninku kuma ya ce masu, “Ku tafi cikin salama, ku kasance da dumi ku koshi.” Idan baku ba su abubuwan da jiki ke bukata ba, ina amfanin wannnan?
17 Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.
Haka ma, bangaskiya ita kadai, ba tare da aikin da ya nuna ta ba, matacciya ce.
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.
To, wani zai ce, “Ai, kai kana da bangaskiya, ni kuwa ina da ayyuka.” Nuna mani bangaskiyar ka ba tare da ayyuka ba, ni kuma in nuna maka bangaskiya ta ta wurin ayyuka na.
19 You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe, and shudder.
Ka gaskanta cewa Allah daya ne; ka yi daidai. Amma ko aljannu ma sun gaskata, kuma suna rawar jiki.
20 But do you want to know, foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless?
Kana so ka sani, kai marar azanci, cewa bangaskiya ba tare da ayyuka ba banza ce?
21 Wasn't Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?
Ba an baratar da Ibrahim mahaifinmu ta wurin ayyuka ba, sa'adda ya mika Ishaku dansa a bisa bagadi?
22 You see that faith worked with his works, and by works faith was perfected;
Ka gani, ashe, bangaskiyar sa ta yi aiki da ayyukan sa, kuma da cewa ta wurin ayyuka bangaskiyar sa ta ginu sosai.
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.
Nassi kuma ya cika da ya ce, “Ibrahim ya gaskata Allah, aka kuma lisafta masa ita a matsayin adalci.” Aka kuma kira shi abokin Allah.
24 You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.
Kun ga, ta wurin ayyuka ne mutum yake samu baratarwa ba ta wurin bangaskiya kadai ba.
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?
Ta wannan hanyar kuma, ba Rahab karuwar nan ta samu baratarwa ta wurin ayyuka, da ta marabci masu leken asirin nan ta fitar da su ta wata hanya dabam ba?
26 For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is dead.
Kamar yadda jiki idan ba tare da ruhu ba matacce ne, haka kuma, bangaskiya ba tare da ayyuka ba matacciya ce.
