James 1
1 James of God and of [the] Lord Jesus Christ a servant To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion Greeting.
Nze Yakobo, omuddu wa Katonda ne Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo, mpandiikira ebika ekkumi n’ebibiri ebyasaasaana, nga mbalamusa.
2 All joy do esteem [it], brothers of mine, when trials you may fall into various,
Baganda bange, mulowoozenga byonna okuba essanyu, bwe mukemebwanga mu ngeri ezitali zimu
3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance;
nga mumanyi ng’okugezesebwa kw’okukkiriza kwammwe kuleeta okugumiikiriza.
4 And endurance work [its] perfect should have, so that you may be perfect and complete in nothing lacking.
Omulimu gw’okugumiikiriza bwe gutuukirira, ne mulyoka mufuuka abatuukiridde era abakulidde ddala mu mwoyo, nga temulina kibabulako.
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.
Naye obanga omuntu yenna ku mmwe aweebuka mu magezi, asabenga Katonda agabira bonna atakayuka, galimuweebwa.
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.
Kyokka amusabenga mu kukkiriza, nga tabuusabuusa, kubanga oyo abuusabuusa ali ng’ejjengo ery’oku nnyanja erisundibwa empewo.
7 Not for should suppose the man that that he will receive anything from the Lord;
Omuntu ng’oyo bw’atasaba na kukkiriza tasuubira Mukama kumuwaayo kintu kyonna.
8 [He is] a man double-minded unstable in all the ways of him.
Kubanga omuntu ow’emyoyo ebiri, buli gy’adda tanywererayo.
9 should boast however the brother of low degree in the exaltation of him,
Owooluganda atalina bintu bingi mu nsi muno asaana yeenyumirize, kubanga agulumizibbwa.
10 he who [is] then rich in the humiliation of him because like a flower of grass he will pass away.
N’omugagga tasaana anyiige ng’ebintu bye bimukendezebbwaako, kubanga naye aliggwaawo ng’ekimuli eky’omuddo bwe kiggweerera.
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.
Kubanga enjuba bw’evaayo n’eyaka n’ebbugumu lyayo eringi, omuddo gukala n’ekimuli kyagwo ne kiwotoka ne kigwa, n’obulungi bw’endabika yaakyo ne buggwaawo; n’omugagga bw’atyo bw’aliggwaawo, ng’ali mu mirimu gye.
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.
Alina omukisa omuntu agumira okukemebwa, kubanga bw’alimala okusiimibwa aliweebwa engule ey’obulamu Katonda gye yasuubiza abo abamwagala.
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];
Omuntu yenna bw’akemebwanga, tagambanga nti, “Katonda ye yankemye,” kubanga Katonda takemebwa, era naye yennyini takema muntu n’omu.
14 A man however is tempted by the own desire being drawn away and being enticed;
Naye buli muntu akemebwa ng’okwegomba kwe okubi, bwe kuli, n’asendebwasendebwa.
15 Then desire having conceived it gives birth to sin, and sin having become fully grown it brings forth death.
Okwegomba okwo bwe kumala okuba olubuto, ne kuzaala ekibi, n’ekibi bwe kikula ne kizaala okufa.
16 Not do be misled, brothers of mine beloved;
Noolwekyo, abooluganda abaagalwa, temulimbibwalimbibwanga.
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.
Buli kirabo ekirungi ekituukiridde, kiva mu ggulu eri Kitaffe, eyatonda eby’omu bbanga ebyaka, atakyukakyuka newaakubadde okwefuula ekirala.
18 Having willed [it] He brought forth us by [the] word of truth, for to be us firstfruits a certain of His creatures.
Yalondawo ku bubwe yekka okutuzaala, ng’ayita mu kigambo eky’amazima, tulyoke tubeere ng’abaana be ababereberye mu lulyo lwe oluggya.
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.
Ekyo mukimanye abooluganda abaagalwa! Buli muntu abeerenga mwangu wa kuwulira, kyokka alemenga kubuguutana kwogera, era alemenga kwanguwa kunyiiga.
20 [the] anger for of man [the] righteousness of God not (works. *N(k)O*)
Kubanga obusungu bw’omuntu tebumuweesa butuukirivu bwa Katonda.
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.
Kale mulekenga emize gyonna, n’ekibi ekyasigala mu mmwe, mwanirize n’obuwombeefu ekigambo ekyasigibwa ekiyinza okulokola emyoyo gyammwe.
22 do be however doers of [the] word and not only hearers deceiving yourselves.
Mubeerenga bakozi ba kigambo, so si abakiwulira ne batakikola, nga mwerimbarimba.
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;
Kubanga omuntu awuliriza ekigambo naye n’atakigondera, afaanana ng’omuntu eyeeraba mu ndabirwamu;
24 he has viewed for himself and has gone away and immediately he has forgotten what like he was.
bw’ava mu ndabirwamu, amangwago ne yeerabira nga bw’afaananye.
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.
Naye oyo atunula enkaliriza mu tteeka ettuufu erituukiridde erireetera abantu eddembe, n’alinyikiririramu tajja kukoma ku kulijjukiranga kyokka, naye ajjanga kukola bye ligamba, era anaaweebwanga omukisa mu buli ky’akola.
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.
Omuntu yenna bwe yeerowooza nga wa ddiini, naye n’atafuga lulimi lwe, aba yeerimba, n’eddiini ye teriiko ky’egasa.
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.
Eddiini entuufu etaliiko bbala mu maaso ga Katonda Kitaffe, y’eyo ey’omuntu alabirira bamulekwa ne bannamwandu era nga yeekuuma ensi gy’alimu ereme kumuletako bbala.
