James 1
1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
Yakobo, omugaya wa Nyamuanga na Latabhugenyi Yesu Kristo, ku nganda ekumi nebhili jinu janyalambukile, enibhakesha.
2 Count it all joy, my brethren, when ye fall into various temptations;
Mubhale ati nibhukondelewe bhwamfu, bhana bhasu, anu omulabha mukusakwa kwa bhulimbaga,
3 knowing that the trying of your faith worketh endurance.
mumenyati okulegejwa kwe likilisha lyemwe elibhayana okwigumisilisha.
4 But let endurance have a perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting in nothing.
Musige obhwigumilisha bhukumishe emilimu jae, koleleki ati mukomele mwiimaliliye, na bhanu mutakugelukilwa chinu chonachona.
5 But if any one of you is wanting in wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it will be given him.
Nawe agati yemwe omunu akenda obhwengeso, abhusabhwe okusoka ku Nyamuanga, unu kasosha kwelyenda kubhanu bhona abhamusabhwa, na kabhayana obhwengeso.
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing doubting; for he that doubteth is like a wave of the sea driven by the wind and tossed.
Nawe sabha kwelikilisha, utetimata, kulwokubha unu ketimata ali lwa likonjo mubhusibha, agagegibhwa no
7 For let not that man think that he shall receive anything from the Lord,
muyaga nigeswa enu neyo. Omunu lwoyo atajakwiganilishati kalamilwa lisabhwa lyae okusoka ku Latabhugenyi;
8 a double-minded man as he is, unstable in all his ways.
omunu oyo keganilisha kabhili, atali mulengelesi munjila jae jona.
9 Let the brother of low degree glory in that he is exalted;
Owasu omutaka jimwiile ekuye kwo kwimelegulu kwae ingulu,
10 but the rich, in that he is made low; because as the flower of the grass he will pass away.
omwanya ogwo ogwo owasu omunibhi mu kwikeya kwae, kulwokubha alisokao lwo bhwaso bhwa mwisanga munu kalabha.
11 For the sun rose with its burning heat, and withered the grass, and its flower fell off, and the beauty of its appearance perished; so also will the rich man fade away in his ways.
Lisubha eliuluka na libhilabhila lyo okusimagisha ebhiyambwa, no bhwaso obhulagala no bhukonde bhwago nibhufwa. Nikwokutyo kutyo abhanu abhanibhi bhalinyamuka agati ye milimu jebhwe.
12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he is approved, he will receive the crown of life, which He promised to them that love him.
Ana libhando omunu unu kekomesha mumalegejo, akamala okusinga lilegejo elyo, kalamila olutenga lwo bhuanga, inu ilagilwe kubhanu abhamwenda Nyamuanga.
13 Let no one when he is tempted, say, I am tempted by God; for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he tempteth no one.
Munu wona wona nasige kwaikati akalegejwa, “Lilegejo linu elisoka ku Nyamuanga,”kulwokubha Nyamuanga atakulegejwa na bhunyamuke, na Nyamuanga omwene atamulegeja wona wona.
14 But each one is tempted when by his own lust he is led away and enticed;
Bhuli munu kalegejibhwa no kuligila kwae kubhibhi jinu ejimukongyakongya no kumusila kula.
15 then lust, having conceived, bringeth forth sin, and sin, when completed, bringeth forth death.
Niwo ikeya okuligila kwe chibhibhi nchigega olubhunda, echibhibhi echibhulwa, ne chibhibhi chikakomela munomuno, echiletelela okufwa.
16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.
Bhana bhasu bhendwa, mutajakujigwa.
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the lights, with whom is no change, nor shadow from turning.
Bhuli chiyanwa chinu chili cha kisi na bhuli chiyanwa chinu chimile echisoka ingulu, echika emwalo okusoka ku Lata wo bhwelu. Sili sili atakuinduka lwa kutyo lilengesi eliinduka.
18 Of his own will he begot us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first-fruits of his creatures.
Nyamuanga achisolele okuchiyana eswe obhuanga bhwa Ligambo lye chimali, koleleki ati chibhe kuti lwibhulo lwa kwamba agati ye bhimogwa bhyae.
19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.
Omumenya linu, bhana bhasu bhendwa. Bhuli umwi jimwiile okubhwa mwangu wo kungwa, ataja kubha mwangu wo kuloma no kubhiililwa,
20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
kulwokubha ebhinyinga bhyo mwana munu bhitakutula kukola obhulengelesi bhwa Nyamuanga.
21 Wherefore put off all filthiness, and excess of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
Kulwejo mute alela obhujabhi bhwe echibhibhi no bhunyamuke bhwona bhunu bhuli mbala jona, na kwo bhwololo mulikilishe ligambo linu lyayambilwe munda yemwe, linu lino bhutulo bhwo kuchungula emyoyo jemwe.
22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
Mulikilishe ligambo, mutalyugwala, nimwijiga mumioyo jemwe abhene.
23 For if any one is a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like a man beholding his natural face in a glass;
Kulwokubha wona wona unu kalyugwa nalema okulikolela omulimu nilwakutyo omunu alelola mwilole obhusu bhwae.
24 for he beholds himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what manner of man he was.
Kesusanisha obhusu bhwae, nagenda jae aonao nalabhilwa kutyo kasusa.
25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty, and remains there, being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man will be blessed in his deed.
Nawe omunu unu kalola kwo bhulengelesi ebhilagilo, echilagilo cho kufung'ama, na komela okuchilubha atali kwa injuno omwene ni mutegelesha unu kalabhilwa, omunu unu ana libhando anu kabha nakola.
26 If any one thinks that he is religious, and bridles not his tongue, but deceives his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
Ikabha omunu wona wona neganilisha omwene ati ni munu wa dini, nawe atakutula kulutangasha olulimi lwae, kagujiga omwoyo gwae na idini ya ni bhusa.
27 Pure religion and undefiled before God, the Father, is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep one's self unspotted from the world.
Idini inu iliyakisi na inu itanabhunyamke imbele ya Nyamuanga weswe na Lata ni inu: okubhasakila bhanu bhafwiliwe na bhatumba gasi munyako jebhwe, no kwibhalilila eswe mumagambo ge chalo.
