< James 5 >
1 Come now! ye wealthy! Weep ye, howling, for your hardships which are coming upon you:
Ꭷ ᏂᎯ ᏗᏤᎿᎭᎢ ᏗᏣᏠᏱᎦ ᎠᎴ ᏗᏥᏴᎳ ᏫᏂᎦᎵᏍᏙᏓ ᎢᏥᎩᎵᏲᎢᏍᏗ ᎢᏥᎷᏤᏗ ᏥᎩ.
2 Your wealth, hath rotted, and, your garments, have become, moth-eaten, —
ᏧᎬᏩᎶᏗ ᎢᏥᎲᎢ ᎤᎪᏒ; ᏗᏣᏄᏬᏃ ᏥᏍᎪᏴ ᎦᏂᏯᎥ;
3 Your gold and silver, have rusted away, and, their rust, shall be, witness against you, and shall eat your flesh, as fire! Ye have laid up treasure in days of extremity: —
ᏗᏣᏤᎵ ᏓᎶᏂᎨ ᎠᏕᎸ ᎠᎴ ᎤᏁᎬ ᎠᏕᎸ ᏚᏯᏍᏜᏓᏛ, ᏚᏯᏍᏜᏓᏛᏃ ᎢᏥᏃᎮᏍᎩ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᏪᏰᏍᏗ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ ᎢᏥᏇᏓᎸ ᎠᏥᎸ ᏥᎦᏰᏍᎪ ᎾᏍᎩᏯᎢ. ᎢᏥᏟᏌᏅ ᏧᎬᏩᎶᏗ ᎤᎵᏍᏆᎸᏗ ᎢᎦ ᎨᏒ ᎤᎬᏩᎵ.
4 Lo, the wage of the workers who have out down your fields—that which hath been kept back, by you, is crying out; and, the outcries of them who reaped, into the ears of the Lord of hosts, have entered:
ᎬᏂᏳᏉ ᎠᏠᏱᎭ ᎨᎦᎫᏴᏓᏁᏗ ᏧᏂᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᎯ ᎤᏂᏍᎫᏕᏒᎯ ᏕᏥᎶᎨᏒᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏗᏥᎾᎯᏍᏓᏁᎸᎯ ᏥᎩ, ᎤᎾᎵᏍᏛᏃ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᏂᏍᎫᏕᏒᎯ ᏚᎵᎠᏴᎸ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏓᎿᎭᏩ ᎠᏁᎩ ᎤᎾᏤᎵᎦ.
5 Ye have luxuriated upon the land, and run riot, ye have pampered your hearts in a day of slaughter;
ᎤᏢᏉᏗ ᎢᏤᎲᎩ ᎡᎶᎯ ᎠᎴ ᏂᏣᏁᎸᎾ; ᏕᏤᎶᎸ ᏗᏥᎾᏫ, ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᏥᎾᎾᏛᏁᎰ ᏗᎯᏍᏗᏱ ᎨᏒ ᎢᎦ ᎠᏍᏆᎸ.
6 Ye sentenced—ye murdered the Righteous one! Is he not arraying himself against you?
ᏕᎫᎪᏓᏁᎸ ᎠᎴ ᎡᏥᎸ ᎾᏍᎩᏅᎾ, ᎥᏝᏃ ᏱᏣᏞᏤᎭ.
7 Be patient, therefore, brethren, until the Presence of the Lord: —Lo! the husbandman, awaiteth the precious fruit of the earth, having patience for it, until it receive the early and the latter rain:
ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏳᏍᏗ ᎢᏓᎵᏅᏟ ᏗᏨᏂᏗᏳ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ ᎬᏂ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎦᎷᏨᎭ. ᎬᏂᏳᏉ ᎤᎶᎨᏛ ᎠᎦᏘᏲ ᎦᎸᏉᏗ ᎡᎶᎯ ᎤᎾᏄᎪᏫᏒᎯ, ᎠᎴ ᎬᏂᏗᏳ ᎨᏐ ᎠᎦᏘᏲᎢ, ᎬᏂ ᎤᎦᎾᏏ ᎢᎬᏱᏱ ᎠᎴ ᎣᏂᏱ ᎤᎦᏃᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ.
8 Be, ye also, patient, Stablish your hearts, because, the Presence of the Lord, hath drawn near.
ᏂᎯ ᎾᏍᏉ ᏗᏨᏂᏗᏳ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ; ᏗᏣᎵᏂᎪᎯᏍᏓ ᏗᏥᎾᏫ, ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯᏰᏃ ᎤᎷᎯᏍᏗᏱ ᎤᏍᏆᎸᎯᏗ.
9 Be not sighing, brethren, one against another, lest ye be judged, —Lo! the Judge, before the doors, is standing.
ᎢᏓᏓᏅᏟ ᏞᏍᏗ ᏱᏗᏣᏓᏍᎦᎨᏍᏗ ᏱᏕᏧᎪᏓᏏᏰᏃ ᎢᏥᏍᎦᏅᏨᎢ. ᎬᏂᏳᏉ ᏗᎫᎪᏗᏍᎩ ᎦᎶᎯᏍᏗᏱ ᎦᏙᎦ.
10 An example, take ye, brethren, of distress and patience, —the prophets who have spoken in the name of the Lord.
ᎢᏓᏓᏅᏟ ᎠᏙᎴᎰᎯᏍᏙᏗ ᎠᎩᎵᏲᎢᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎴ ᎬᏂᏗᏳ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎠᎾᏙᎴᎰᏍᎩ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏕᎤᏙᏍᏛ ᎤᏂᏁᎢᏍᏔᏅᎯ ᏥᎩ, ᏗᏥᎧᎿᎭᏩᏛᏍᏗ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ.
11 Lo! we pronounce them happy who have endured; —Of the endurance of Job, ye have heard, and, the end of the Lord, have ye seen, —that, of much tender affection, is the Lord, and full of compassion,
ᎬᏂᏳᏉ ᎣᏏᏳ ᎢᏳᎾᎵᏍᏓᏁᏗ ᎢᎩᏰᎸᏐ ᏗᏅᏂᏗᏳ ᏥᎨᏐᎢ. ᎢᏣᏛᎦᏅ ᎬᏂᏗᏳ ᎨᏒ ᏦᏈ, ᎠᎴ ᎢᏥᎪᎲ ᏄᏍᏛ ᏭᏰᎢᎶᎯᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ, ᎠᎴ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎤᏣᏘ ᎤᏓᏅᏘᏳ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎴ ᎤᏓᏙᎵᏣᏘᏳ ᎨᏒᎢ.
12 But, before all things, my brethren, do not swear, —either by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your Yea be yea, and your Nay nay, —lest, under judgment, ye fall.
ᎠᏎᏃ ᎢᏓᏓᏅᏟ, ᏭᏓᎪᎾᏛᏛᎢ, ᏞᏍᏗ ᏱᏣᏎᎵᏛᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᏱᏥᏁᎢᏍᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᎦᎸᎶᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎡᎶᎯ, ᎠᎴ ᏞᏍᏗ ᏄᏓᎴᏒᏉ ᎠᏎᎵᏙᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ; ᎠᎴ ᏞᏍᏗ ᏄᏓᎴᏒᏉ ᎠᏎᎵᏙᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ; ᎢᏣᏤᎵᏍᎩᏂ ᎥᎥ ᎢᏣᏛᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎥᎥ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ, ᎠᎴ ᎢᏣᏤᎵ ᎥᏝ ᎢᏣᏛᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎥᏝ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ; ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᏞᏍᏗ ᏤᏧᎪᏓᏁᎸᎩ ᎢᏥᏍᎦᏅᏨᎢ.
13 In distress, is any among you? Let him pray; Cheerful, is any? Let him strike the strings;
ᎩᎶ ᎢᏤᎲ ᎤᏓᏑᏰᏍᏗ ᎠᎩᎵᏲᎨᏍᏗ, ᎠᏓᏙᎵᏍᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ; ᎩᎶ ᎤᎦᎵᏍᏗ ᎤᏓᏅᏖᏍᏗ ᏕᎧᏃᎩᏍᎨᏍᏗ.
14 Sick, is any among you? Let him call unto him the elders of the assembly, and let them pray for him, anointing him with oil in the name [of the Lord]; —
ᎩᎶ ᎢᏤᎲ ᎤᏓᏑᏰᏍᏗ ᎤᏢᎨᏍᏗ, ᏫᏓᏯᏂᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᏗᎨᎦᏗᎶᏗ ᏧᎾᏁᎶᏗ ᎤᎾᏓᏡᎬᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᎠᎾᏓᏙᎵᏍᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᎠᏂᏔᏲᎯᎮᏍᏗ ᎠᏥᏍᏕᎸᏗᏱ, ᎬᏩᎶᏁᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᎠᏠᏁᏗ ᎠᏅᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏚᏙᎥᎢ;
15 And, the prayer of faith, shall save the exhausted one, and the Lord will raise him up, and, if he have committed, sins, it shall be forgiven him.
ᎪᎯᏳᎯᏃ ᎠᏓᏃᎵᏍᏙᏗ ᎨᏒ ᏓᏳᏍᏕᎸᎯ ᎤᏢᎩ, ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯᏃ ᏙᏓᏳᎴᏔᏂ; ᎢᏳ ᎠᎴ ᎤᏍᏚᏅᏨᎯ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ ᎾᏍᎩ ᏣᏥᏂᎯᏎᏗ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ.
16 Be openly confessing, therefore, one to another, your sins, and be praying in each other’s behalf, —that ye may be healed. Much availeth, the supplication of a righteous man, when it is energised:
ᎬᏂᎨᏒ ᏂᏕᏣᏓᏛᏁᎮᏍᏗ ᎢᏥᏍᎦᏅᏨᏗ, ᎠᎴ ᏕᏣᏓᏙᎵᏍᏓᏁᎮᏍᏗ, ᎢᏂᏔᏲᎯᎮᏍᏗ ᏗᏣᏗᏫᏍᏗᏱ. ᎤᏙᎯᏳᎯᏯ ᎤᏰᎸᎯ ᎤᏓᏙᎵᏍᏙᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏓᏅᏘ ᎤᏣᏘ ᎠᏓᏍᏕᎵᏍᎪᎢ.
17 Elijah, was, a man, affected like us; and he earnestly prayed that there might be no moisture, and there was no moisture on the land, for three years and six months, —
ᎢᎳᏯ ᏴᏫᏉ ᎨᏒᎩ ᎠᏴ ᏂᎦᎵᏍᏓᏁᎲ ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᎢᎬᏩᎵᏍᏓᏁᏗ ᎨᏒᎩ; ᎠᎴ ᎤᎵᏂᎩᏛ ᎤᏓᏅᏛᎩ ᎤᏓᏙᎵᏍᏔᏅᎩ ᎤᏔᏲᎸᎩ ᎤᎦᏃᏗᏱ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ; ᎰᏩᏃ ᏄᏚᎾᏅᎾ ᎨᏒᎩ ᎦᏙᎯ ᏦᎢ ᏧᏕᏘᏴᏛ ᏑᏓᎵᏃ ᎢᏯᏅᏙ ᎢᎪᎯᏛ.
18 And, again, he prayed, and, the heaven, gave, rain, and, the land, shot up her fruit.
ᎠᎴᏬ ᎤᏓᏙᎵᏍᏔᏅᎩ, ᎦᎸᎶᎢᏃ ᎤᎦᏃᏓᏁᎸᎩ, ᎪᏙᎯᏃ ᎤᎾᏄᎪᏫᏒᎩ ᎤᎾᏄᎪᏫᏍᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ.
19 My brethren! If one among you be led to err from the truth, and one turn him back,
ᎢᏓᎵᏅᏟ, ᎢᏳᏃ ᎩᎶ ᏂᎯ ᏂᏣᏛᏅ ᎠᏞᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᏚᏲᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᏚᏳᎪᏛ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎩᎶᏃ ᎢᎤᎦᏔᎲᏍᎨᏍᏗ,
20 Be ye taking note—that, he that turneth back a sinner out of the error of his way—will save his soul out of death, and hide a multitude of sins.
