James 1
1 James, the seruaunt of God, and of oure Lord Jhesu Crist, to the twelue kinredis, that ben in scatering abrood, helthe.
Jakobho, muranda waMwari newaIshe Jesu Kristu, kumarudzi gumi nemaviri ari mukupararira: Kwaziwai.
2 My britheren, deme ye al ioye, whanne ye fallen in to diuerse temptaciouns, witynge,
Zvitorei semufaro wese, hama dzangu, kana muchiwira mumiedzo yakasiyana-siyana,
3 that the preuyng of youre feith worchith pacience;
muchiziva kuti kuedzwa kwerutendo rwenyu kunobudisa kutsungirira;
4 and pacience hath a perfit werk, that ye be perfit and hole, and faile in no thing.
asi kutsungirira ngakuve nebasa rakapedzeredzwa, kuti muve vakapedzeredzwa nekukwana, musingatairi pachinhu.
5 And if ony of you nedith wisdom, axe he of God, which yyueth to alle men largeli, and vpbreidith not; and it schal be youun to hym.
Uye kana umwe wenyu achishaiwa uchenjeri, ngaakumbire kuna Mwari, anopavhurira vese, uye asingatuki, zvino achadzipiwa.
6 But axe he in feith, and doute no thing; for he that doutith, is lijk to a wawe of the see, which is moued and borun a boute of wynde.
Asi ngaakumbire murutendo, asiri asina chokwadi nechinhu; nokuti asina chokwadi wakaita sefungu regungwa rinosundwa nemhepo richidzungaidzwa.
7 Therfor gesse not the ilke man, that he schal take ony thing of the Lord.
Nokuti munhu uyu ngaarege kufunga kuti achagamuchira chinhu kuna Ishe.
8 A man dowble in soule is vnstable in alle hise weies.
Murume ane moyo miviri anoshanduka-shanduka panzira dzake dzese.
9 And a meke brother haue glorie in his enhaunsyng,
Asi hama yakaderera ngaizvikudze pakukudzwa kwake;
10 and a riche man in his lownesse; for as the flour of gras he schal passe.
nemufumi pakuderedzwa kwake; nokuti seruva reuswa achapfuura.
11 The sunne roos vp with heete, and driede the gras, and the flour of it felde doun, and the fairnesse of his chere perischide; and so a riche man welewith in hise weies.
Nokuti zuva rinobuda pamwe nekupisa, ndokuomesa uswa, neruva rahwo rinowira pasi, nekunaka kwechimiro chahwo kwakaparara; saizvozvowo mufumi achabvuruvara panzira dzake.
12 Blessid is the man, that suffrith temptacioun; for whanne he schal be preued, he schal resseyue the coroun of lijf, which God biheyte to men that louen hym.
Wakaropafadzwa munhu anotsungirira pamuedzo; nokuti kana atendwa, achagamuchira korona yeupenyu, Ishe yaakavimbisa kune vanomuda.
13 No man whanne he is temptid, seie, that he is temptid of God; for whi God is not a temptere of yuele thingis, for he temptith no man.
Kusava nemunhu anoti achiidzwa ati: Ndinoidzwa naMwari; nokuti Mwari haagoni kuedzwa nechakaipa, naiye amene haaidzi munhu.
14 But ech man is temptid, drawun and stirid of his owne coueiting.
Asi umwe neumwe anoidzwa, kana achikwehwa nekuchiva kwake pachake, nekukwezwa.
15 Aftirward coueityng, whanne it hath conseyued, bringith forth synne; but synne, whanne it is fillid, gendrith deth.
Ipapo kuchiva kana kwarema kunozvara chivi; nechivi kana chaperedzerwa, chinobereka rufu.
16 Therfor, my most dereworthe britheren, nyle ye erre.
Musanyengerwa, hama dzangu dzinodikanwa.
17 Ech good yifte, and ech perfit yifte is from aboue, and cometh doun fro the fadir of liytis, anentis whom is noon other chaungyng, ne ouerschadewyng of reward.
Chipo chese chakanaka nechipiwa chese chakaperedzerwa chinobva kumusoro, chichiburuka kubva kuna Baba vezviedza, navo pasina kupinduka, kana mumvuri wekushanduka.
18 For wilfulli he bigat vs bi the word of treuthe, that we be a bigynnyng of his creature.
Nekuda kwake wakabereka isu neshoko rechokwadi, kuti isu tive sechibereko chekutanga chezvisikwa zvake.
19 Wite ye, my britheren moost loued, be ech man swift to here, but slow to speke, and slow to wraththe;
Naizvozvo, hama dzangu dzinodiwa, munhu umwe neumwe ngaave anokurumidza pakunzwa, anononoka pakutaura, anononoka pakutsamwa;
20 for the wraththe of man worchith not the riytwisnesse of God.
nokuti kutsamwa kwemunhu hakuiti kururama kwaMwari.
21 For which thing caste ye awei al vnclennesse, and plentee of malice, and in myldenesse resseyue ye the word that is plauntid, that may saue youre soulis.
Naizvozvo bvisai zvinyangadzo zvese nekuwandisa kwekuipa, mugamuchire nemoyo munyoro shoko rakabatanidzwa pamuri, rinogona kuponesa mweya yenyu.
22 But be ye doeris of the word, and not hereris oneli, disseiuynge you silf.
Asi ivai vaiti veshoko, uye kwete vanzwi chete, muchizvinyengera pachenyu.
23 For if ony man is an herere of the word, and not a doere, this schal be licned to a man that biholdith the cheer of his birthe in a mirour;
Nokuti kana umwe ari munzwi weshoko uye asiri muiti, iye wakafanana nemunhu anoona chiso chake chechisikirwo muchionioni;
24 for he bihelde hym silf, and wente awei, and anoon he foryat which he was.
nokuti anozviona pachake, ndokuenda, ndokukanganwa pakarepo kuti wanga akadini.
25 But he that biholdith in the lawe of perfit fredom, and dwellith in it, and is not maad a foryetful herere, but a doere of werk, this schal be blessid in his dede.
Asi uyo anotarisisa mumurairo wakaperedzerwa werusununguko ndokurambirirapo, uyo asati ari munzwi anokanganwa asi muiti webasa, uyu acharopafadzwa pakuita kwake.
26 And if ony man gessith hym silf to be religiouse, and refreyneth not his tunge, but disseyueth his herte, the religioun of him is veyn.
Kana umwe pakati penyu achiti anotenda, kana asingadzori rurimi rwake, asi achinyengera moyo wake, chitendero cheuyu hachina maturo.
27 A clene religioun, and an vnwemmed anentis God and the fadir, is this, to visite fadirles and modirles children, and widewis in her tribulacioun, and to kepe hym silf vndefoulid fro this world.
Chitendero chakachena chisina kusvibiswa pamberi paMwari naBaba ndechichi: Kufambira nherera nechirikadzi pakutambudzika kwavo, azvichengete asina gwapa kubva kunyika.
