James 1
1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
Zaki, kisadi ki Nzambi ayi ki Pfumu Yesu Klisto, mfidisidi nkandakuidi kumi makanda muadi ma batu ba Nzambi, momo matembakana va nza wumvimba.
2 Count it all joy, my brethren, when ye fall into various temptations;
A bakhomba ziama, bika lumona khini mu thangu luidi mu zithotolo ziphila mu phila.
3 knowing that the trying of your faith worketh endurance.
Bika luzaba ti thotolo yi lummona mu minu kieno yimbutanga mvibudulu.
4 But let endurance have a perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting in nothing.
Vayi mvibudulu yimanisa kisalu kiandi mu diambu lumonika batu bafuana ayi baduka mu mambu moso, muingi lubika kambu kadi diambu.
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.
Enati vadi mutu mu beno kambulu nduenga buna bika kalomba kuidi Nzambi wumvananga mu luzolo kuidi batu boso ayi niandi wumvananga mu kambutsembolo. Buna Nzambi wela kumvana.
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.
Vayi bika kalombila mu minu, mu kambu memata bila woso mutu weti memata dedikini banga mayo ma mbu, mannikunungu kuidi phemo; manlozongondambu na ndambu.
7 For let not that man think that he shall receive anything from the Lord,
Mutu wu phila yayi kabika tula diana ditambula kima kuidi Pfumu,
8 a double-minded man as he is, unstable in all his ways.
bila widi mutu wuvasuka mu mayindu mandi ayi widi mabaluka thangumu mabanza mandi.
9 Let the brother of low degree glory in that he is exalted;
Bika khomba yoyi yisukama, kakiniemisanga Nzambi bu keti kunnangika.
10 but the rich, in that he is made low; because as the flower of the grass he will pass away.
Vayi khomba yi kimvuana, kakiniemisanga Nzambi bu keti kunkululabila wela vioka banga teka ki tsola.
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.
Thangu bu yitotukidi; buna muini andi wu ngolo wuyumisini biti, teka kiandi kibuidi ayi kitoko kiandi kilalikini. Buawu bobo buela lalikinina nkua kimvuama mu mabanza mandi.
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.
O khini kuidi mutu wowo weti kanga ntima mu phukumunu; bila bu kela monika wukuikama mu phukumunu, wela tambula budu ki luzingu; luzingu lolo Nzambi kavanina tsila kuidi batu bobo beti kunzola.
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.
Muaki mutu kabika tuba bu kavukumunu ti “Nzambi wulembo phukumuna”. Buna Bila mambu mambimbi malendi vukumuna Nzambi ko ayi niandi veka Nzambikalendi vukumuna mutu ko.
14 But each one is tempted when by his own lust he is led away and enticed;
Vayi kadika mutu weti vukumunu bu keti tutu ayi vunukuidi zitsatu ziandi zimbimbi.
15 then lust, having conceived, bringeth forth sin, and sin, when completed, bringeth forth death.
Bosi tsatu yimbimbi bu yiyedidi, yimbutanga masumu; bosi masumu mawu yela mambutanga lufua.
16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.
Diawu bakhomba ziama zi luzolo, lubika vunuka,
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.
bila kadika dikaba dimboti ayi kadika dikaba difuanadintotukilanga ku yilu kuidi dise dimvananga kiezila. Mu niandi muisiko kadi luviakunu ayi kadi kitsuisula ki luviakunu.
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.
Mu luzolo luandi veka, niandi wutubuta mu nzika mambu mandi ma kiedika muingi tuba banga batheti mu bivangu biandi.
19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.
A Bakhomba baama zi luzolo, bika kadika mutu kabanga wukubama mu wa; kabika vika yolukanga ayi kabika vika fuemanga.
20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
Bila nganzi yi mutu yilendi vanga ko mambu masonga ma Nzambi.
21 Wherefore put off all filthiness, and excess of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
Diawu lozanu mvindu woso ayi mambu moso mambimbi. Lutambula, mu kukikulula, mambu ma Nzambi, makunu mu mintima mieno, bila mawu mabeki lulendo lu vukisila miela mieno.
22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
Muaki lubika sia ti ko wa na wa kaka tala luedi kukivuna beno veka vayi lusadilanga mawu.
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;
Bila enati mutu weti wa mambu ma Nzambi vayi kamasadilanga ko, niandi dedikini banga mutu wuntala zizi kiandi mu lumueno;
24 for he beholds himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what manner of man he was.
niandi mana kukitala, wedi kuandi ayi tumbulu zimbakana buevi kadidi.
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.
Vayi woso mutu weti landakana bumboti Mina mifuana miomimimvananga kiphuanza, ayi, widi wukangama mu miawu mu kambu kumizimbakana bu kamiwilu, vayi wukumisadilanga, buna mutu wowo wela monakhini mu mambu moso kamvanga.
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.
Enati mutu weti kukibanzila ti niandi widi nsambidi wu Nzambivayi kasi zaba ko yadila ludimi luandi ko; buna wulembo kukivuni ayi sambila kuandi kuidi kuphamba.
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.
Kinzambi kikiedika ayi kikambulu bila va meso ma Nzambi, dise; kuawu kuaku: sadisa bana basana ayi mafuola mu ziphasi ziawu ayi kukikeba wuvedila mu mambu ma ntoto.
