Lokwalo lo lo tswa kwa go nna: Jakobe, motlhanka wa Modimo le Morena Jesu Keresete.
2 all joy to govern brother me when(-ever) temptation/testing: testing to fall upon various
Lo ya kwa: Bajuteng ba ba rategang, Bakaulengwe a botshelo jwa lona bo mo mathateng le dithaelong? Ke gone he itumeleng,
3 to know that/since: that the/this/who testing you the/this/who faith to workout/produce perseverance
gonne fa tsela e na le dikgopi, bopelotelele jwa lona bo nna le nako e ntle ya go gola.
4 the/this/who then perseverance work perfect to have/be in order that/to to be perfect and whole in/on/among nothing to lack
Ke gone mmang bopelotelele jwa lona bo gole, le gone lo seka lwa leka go intsha mo mathateng a lona ka go iphethekganya. Gonne bopelotelele jwa lona bo setse bo godile, jalo lo tlaa bo lo ipaakanyeditse go lebagana le sengwe le sengwe, lo itekanetse mo mokgweng, lo tletse ebile lo feletse.
5 if then one you to lack wisdom to ask from/with/beside the/this/who to give God all without reserve and (not *NK(o)*) to revile and to give it/s/he
Fa lo batla go itse se Modimo o batlang lo se dira, o kopeng, mme o tlaa lo bolelela ka boitumelo, gonne o ipaakanyeditse ka malatsi otlhe go naya botlhe ba ba o kopang botlhale jo bogolo; o sa kgopege.
6 to ask then in/on/among faith nothing to judge/doubt the/this/who for to judge/doubt to resemble waves sea be wind-blown and to toss about
Mme fa lo o kopa, tlhomamisang ka botlalo gore lo lebeletse gore o tlaa lo bolelela, gonne tlhaloganyo e e belaelang e tlaa etsaetsega fela jaaka lekhubu la lewatle le le kgwekgweediwang le phailakwa ke phefo;
7 not for to suppose the/this/who a human that that/since: that to take one from/with/beside the/this/who lord: God
jalo maikaelelo mangwe le mangwe a o a dirang a tlaa bo a sa tlhomama, ka ntlha ya gore o leba kwa le kwa. Fa o sa kgope ka tumelo, se solofele Morena go go naya karabo nngwe e e tlhomameng.
8 man double-minded restless in/on/among all the/this/who road it/s/he
9 to boast then the/this/who brother the/this/who lowly in/on/among the/this/who height it/s/he
Mokeresete yo o lebelwang kwa tlase mo lefatsheng leno a itumele, gonne o mogolo mo matlhong a Morena.
10 the/this/who then rich in/on/among the/this/who lowliness it/s/he that/since: since as/when flower grass to pass by
Mme mohumi o tshwanetse go itumelela gore dikhumo tsa gagwe ga di reye sepe mo Moreneng, gonne o tlaa tloga a nyelela, jaaka sethunya se se latlhegetsweng ke bontle jwa sone se bo se e swa se swabile, se bolailwe ke mogote wa letsatsi la selemo. Go ntse fela jalo mo bahuming. Ba tlaa tloga ba a swa ba bo ba tlogela ditiro tsa bone tse dintsi kwa morago.
11 to rise for the/this/who sun with the/this/who heat and to dry the/this/who grass and the/this/who flower it/s/he to fall out and the/this/who beauty the/this/who face it/s/he to destroy thus(-ly) and the/this/who rich in/on/among the/this/who journey it/s/he to fade
12 blessed man which to remain/endure temptation/testing: testing that/since: since tested to be to take the/this/who crown the/this/who life which to profess (the/this/who lord: God *K*) the/this/who to love it/s/he
Go sego motho yo o sa ineeleng mo go direng boleo fa a lekwa, gonne e tlaa re kwa morago o tlaa amogela serwalo sa botshelo e le tuelo ya gagwe, serwalo se Modimo o se solofeditseng ba ba o ratang.
13 nothing to test/tempt: tempt to say that/since: that away from (the/this/who *k*) God to test/tempt: tempt the/this/who for God untempted to be evil/harm: evil to test/tempt: tempt then it/s/he none
Mme gakologelwang, fa mongwe a batla go dira boleo ga se Modimo o mo raelang, gonne Modimo ga o ke o batla go dira boleo le gone ga o ke o raela ope gore a bo dire.
14 each then to test/tempt: tempt by/under: by the/this/who one's own/private desire to drag out/away and to entice
Thaelo ke go gogwa ke dikakanyo tse di bosula tsa motho le dikeletso tsa gagwe.
15 then the/this/who desire to seize/conceive/help to give birth to sin the/this/who then sin to complete to generate death
Dikakanyo tse di bosula tse, di gogela mo ditirong tse di bosula mme morago go bo go nna katlholelo loso e tswa kwa Modimong.
16 not to lead astray brother me beloved
Ke gone se tsietsegeng, bakaulengwe ba ba rategang.
17 all gift good and all free gift perfect from above/again to be to come/go down away from the/this/who father the/this/who light from/with/beside which no there is variation or turning shadow
Mme le fa e le eng se se molemo ebile se itekanetse se tla kwa go rona se tswa kwa Modimong Motlhodi wa lesedi lotlhe, mme o phatshimela ruri ka bosakhutleng go sena phetogo epe kgotsa moriti.
18 to plan to generate me word truth toward the/this/who to exist me firstfruits one the/this/who it/s/he creature
Gape e ne e le letsatsi le le itumedisang mo go One fa o re naya matshelo a masha, ka boammaaruri jwa Lefoko la one, mme re ne ra nna jaaka ekete re bana ba One ba ntlha mo go ba ntlo ya One e ncha.
19 (to know *N(K)O*) brother me beloved to be (then *no*) all a human quick toward the/this/who to hear slow toward the/this/who to speak slow toward wrath
Bakaulengwe, se lebaleng gore go botoka go reetsa thata, le go bua go le gonnye mme o sa tlale bogale;
20 wrath for man righteousness God no (to work *N(k)O*)
gonne bogale ga bo re siamise, jaaka Modimo o batla re siama.
21 therefore to put aside all filth and excess evil in/on/among gentleness to receive the/this/who implanted/ingrafted word the/this/who be able to save the/this/who soul you
Ke gone latlhang gotlhe mo go sa siamang mo botshelong jwa lona, ke gore ka fa teng ga gago le ka fa ntle, mme ka boingotlo itumeleleng molaetsa o montle o re o amogetseng, gonne o nonofile go boloka mewa ya rona jaaka e le One o o tshwereng dipelo tsa lona.
22 to be then doer word and not alone hearer to deceive themself
Gape gakologelwang gore molaetsa o, o tshwanetse go obamelwa, eseng go reediwa fela. Ke gone se itsietseng.
23 that/since: since if one hearer word to be and no doer this/he/she/it to resemble man to observe the/this/who face the/this/who origin it/s/he in/on/among mirror
Gonne fa motho a reetsa fela a sa o obamele o tshwana le motho yo o itebileng sefatlhogo mo seiponeng;
24 to observe for themself and to go away and immediately to forget what sort? to be
gonne fela jaaka a tsamaya, ga a tlhole a ipona, gape ga a sa tlhole a gakologelwa gore o lebega jang.
25 the/this/who then to stoop toward law perfect the/this/who the/this/who freedom and to continue (this/he/she/it *k*) no hearer forgetfulness to be but doer work this/he/she/it blessed in/on/among the/this/who to do/make: do it/s/he to be
Mme fa mongwe a tswelela ka go lebela pele mo molaong wa Modimo wa batho ba ba gololesegileng, ga a kitla a o gakologelwa fela, mme o tlaa dira se o se buang, mme Modimo o tlaa mo segofatsa thata mo go sengwe le sengwe se o se dirang.
26 if one to think religious to exist (in/on/among you *K*) not to bridle tongue (it/s/he *NK(o)*) but to trick heart (it/s/he *NK(o)*) this/he/she/it futile the/this/who religion
Lefa e le mang yo o reng ke Mokeresete mme a sa laole loleme lwa gagwe lo lo bogale, o itsietsa fela, le tumelo ya gagwe ga e na molemo ope.
27 religion clean and pure from/with/beside the/this/who God and father this/he/she/it to be to visit/care for orphan and widow in/on/among the/this/who pressure it/s/he spotless themself to keep: protect away from the/this/who world
Mokeresete yo o phepa a bile a sena molato, ka fa ponong ya Modimo ke yo o tlhokomelang masiela le batlholagadi, le yo mowa wa gagwe o emeng ka boammaaruri mo Moreneng, a sa marwa gope ke dibe tsa lefatshe.
