James 1
1 James of God and of [the] Lord Jesus Christ a servant To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion Greeting.
Jemis, nwaodibo Chineke na nke Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst, Na-edegara agbụrụ iri na abụọ ndị gbasara nʼelu ụwa niile akwụkwọ ozi a: Ndeewonụ!
2 All joy do esteem [it], brothers of mine, when trials you may fall into various,
Ụmụnna m, ka obi unu jupụta nʼọṅụ mgbe ọbụla ọnwụnwa dị iche iche gbara unu gburugburu.
3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance;
Nʼihi na mgbe a na-anwa okwukwe unu ọnwụnwa, ntachiobi unu na-enwe ohere ito eto.
4 And endurance work [its] perfect should have, so that you may be perfect and complete in nothing lacking.
Ka nguzosike unu pụta ìhè, ka unu zuo oke ma nwezuokwa ihe niile, na-adịghị ihe ọbụla nke ga-akọ unu.
5 If now any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask from the [One] giving God to all generously and (not *NK(o)*) finding fault, and it will be given to him.
Ọ bụrụ na ọ dị onye na-enweghị amamihe, ya rịọ Chineke, onye na-enye onye ọbụla rịọrọ ya amamihe nʼafọ ofufu na-ataghịkwa onye ọbụla ụta, a ga-ewerekwa ya nye ya.
6 he should ask however in faith nothing doubting; The [one] for doubting he has been likened to a wave of [the] sea being blown by the wind and being tossed by the wind.
Ma rịọọ nʼokwukwe na-enweghị obi abụọ, nʼihi na onye na-enwe obi abụọ dị ka ebili mmiri oke osimiri mgbe ikuku na-ebugharị ya.
7 Not for should suppose the man that that he will receive anything from the Lord;
Onye dị otu ahụ ekwesighị ile anya na ọ ga-esite nʼaka Onyenwe anyị nata ihe ọbụla.
8 [He is] a man double-minded unstable in all the ways of him.
Nʼihi na mmadụ dị otu a bụ onye ihu abụọ, onye na-adịghị eguzo nʼotu ebe nʼihe ọbụla ọ na-eme.
9 should boast however the brother of low degree in the exaltation of him,
Ka nwanna ọbụla bụ ogbenye ṅụrịa ọṅụ, mgbe ọbụla e weliri ya elu.
10 he who [is] then rich in the humiliation of him because like a flower of grass he will pass away.
Ka onye bụ ọgaranya mgbe a na-eme ka ọ nọdụ ya dị ala, nʼihi na ndị bara ụba ga-akpọnwụ dị ka okoko osisi.
11 Has risen for the sun with [its] burning heat and withered the grass and the flower of it has fallen and the beauty of the appearance of it has perished; Thus also the rich [man] in the midst of the pursuits of him will fade away.
Nʼihi na mgbe ọbụla anwụ waliri chasie ike, wepụta okpomọkụ, ọ na-eme ka ahịhịa kpọnwụọ, ka okoko osisi daa nʼala, mma ya agwụsịakwa. Nʼotu aka ahụ, onye ahụ bara ụba ga-akpọnwụ ọ bụladị mgbe ọ na-ejegharị nʼime ije ozi ya.
12 Blessed [is the] man who endures trial, because approved having been he will receive the crown of life that He has promised (the Lord *K*) to those loving Him.
Ngọzị na-adịrị onye ahụ nke na-anọgide na-adịghị ada mba nʼoge ọnwụnwa. Nʼihi na mgbe oge ọnwụnwa ahụ gasịrị, ọ ga-anata ụgwọ ọrụ, nke bụ okpueze ndụ, nke Chineke kwere nkwa inye ndị niile hụrụ ya nʼanya.
13 No one being tempted should say that By (*k*) God I am being tempted; For God unable to be tempted is by evils, tempts now He Himself no [one];
Ka onye ọbụla hapụ ị sị, mgbe a na-anwa ya, “Ọ bụ Chineke na-anwa m ọnwụnwa a.” Nʼihi na ọ dịghị mgbe a pụrụ ịnwa Chineke ka o mee ihe ọjọọ, ọ dịkwaghị anwa mmadụ ọbụla ka o mee ihe ọjọọ.
14 A man however is tempted by the own desire being drawn away and being enticed;
Kama ọnwụnwa na-abịara mmadụ site nʼọchịchọ nke obi ya. Ọ bụkwa ọchịchọ ọjọọ nke mmadụ na-arafu ya, dọkpụfuo ya.
15 Then desire having conceived it gives birth to sin, and sin having become fully grown it brings forth death.
Ọchịchọ ahụ, mgbe ha bara ụba nʼime obi, na-eduba mmadụ na mmehie. Mgbe mmehie bara ụba, ọ na-eduba nʼọnwụ.
16 Not do be misled, brothers of mine beloved;
Ekwela ka onye ọbụla duhie unu ụmụnna m.
17 Every act of giving good and every gift perfect from above is coming down from the Father of lights with whom not there is variation or of shifting shadow.
Onyinye ọbụla dị mma, na nke zuruoke na-esite nʼeluigwe abịa. Ọ na-esite nʼebe Nna nke ìhè niile onye na-adịghị agbanwe agbanwe, ọ naghị ezonarị ụmụ mmadụ ihu ya.
18 Having willed [it] He brought forth us by [the] word of truth, for to be us firstfruits a certain of His creatures.
Nʼihi imezu nzube ya, o sitere nʼokwu ya bụ eziokwu mụọ anyị. O mekwara nke a ka anyị bụrụ ụmụ mbụ nke ihe o kere eke.
19 (You should know *N(K)O*) brothers of mine beloved; should be (however *no*) every man swift unto to hear, slow unto to speak, slow unto anger.
Unu aghaghị icheta nke a ụmụnna m ndị m hụrụ nʼanya. Ka onye ọbụla nwee ntị na-anụ ihe ọsịịsọ, na ire dị arọ ikwu okwu, ma bụrụkwa onye iwe na-adịghị ewe ọsịịsọ.
20 [the] anger for of man [the] righteousness of God not (works. *N(k)O*)
Nʼihi na iwe nke mmadụ anaghị arụpụta ezi omume nke Chineke.
21 Therefore having put aside all filthiness and excess of wickedness in humility do receive the implanted word which is being able to save the souls of you.
Ya mere, wezuganụ ụzọ rụrụ arụ niile na ihe ọbụla dị njọ nke fọdụrụ nʼime ndụ unu. Ma jirinụ obi umeala nabataranụ onwe unu okwu ndụ ahụ nke a kụrụ nʼobi unu, nke nwere ike ịzọpụta mkpụrụobi unu.
22 do be however doers of [the] word and not only hearers deceiving yourselves.
Unu abụla ndị na-eji ntị ha na-anụ okwu ndụ ahụ naanị, na-arafu onwe ha, kama bụrụnụ ndị na-eme ihe okwu ahụ kwuru.
23 because if anyone a hearer of [the] word is and not a doer, this one has been likened to a man looking at the face the natural of him in a mirror;
Nʼihi na onye ọbụla na-ege ntị nʼokwu ọbụla ma hapụ iji ihe ọ nụrụ mee ihe, dị ka nwoke na-ele ihu ya nʼenyo.
24 he has viewed for himself and has gone away and immediately he has forgotten what like he was.
O lesịa onwe ya pụọ, o chefuo ihe ihu ya yiri ma nwa oge nta gasịa.
25 The [one] however having looked intently into [the] law perfect that of freedom and having continued in [it], (this *k*) not a hearer forgetful having been but a doer of [the] work — this one blessed in the work to be done by him will be.
Ma nwoke ahụ nọgidesịrị ike na-ele anya nʼime iwu ahụ zuruoke, nke na-eme ka mmadụ nwere onwe ya, ee, nwoke ahụ na-aga nʼihu ile na ime ihe iwu ahụ kwuru, hapụkwa ichefu ya, ka a ga-agọzi nʼihe niile ọ na-eme.
26 If anyone seems religious to be (among you *K*) not bridling [the] tongue (of him *NK(o)*) but deceiving [the] heart (of him, *NK(o)*) of this one worthless [is] the religion.
Ọ bụrụ na mmadụ ọbụla echee na ya bụ onye na-ekpere Chineke ma hapụ ijide ire ya aka maọbụ ịkwa ire ya nga, onye dị otu a na-arafu onwe ya, okpukpe Chineke ya bụkwa ihe na-abaghị uru.
27 Religion pure and undefiled before the God and Father this is, to visit orphans and widows in the tribulation of them, unstained oneself to keep from the world.
Ezi okpukpe Chineke, nke Chineke Nna anyị na-anabata dịka okpukpe dị ọcha, na nke na-enweghị mmerụ, bụ nke a, ilekọta ndị na-enweghị nne na nna, na ndị di ha nwụrụ nʼime nsogbu ha na idebe onwe anyị nʼenweghị ntụpọ site nʼaka ndị ụwa.
