< James 4 >

1 Wherof ben batelis and cheestis among you? Whether not of youre coueitisis, that fiyten in youre membris?
Ngondu na makomangu pakati pa mwenga vilawa koshi? Vilawa mumatamata zyenu zidoda zyazilikomanga kila mala munshimba mwenu.
2 Ye coueiten, and ye han not; ye sleen, and ye han enuye, and ye moun not gete. Ye chiden, and maken batel; and ye han not, for ye axen not.
Mfira vintu kumbiti muvipata ndiri, su mwa kala kulaga, mfira nentu kupata vintu kumbiti muvipata ndiri. Su mwankulitenderana ngondu na kulikomanga. Mpata ndiri shilii shamfira toziya mushiluwa ndiri kwa Mlungu.
3 Ye axen, and ye resseyuen not; for that ye axen yuele, as ye schewen opynli in youre coueitisis.
Na pamluwa mpata ndiri toziya mluwa kwa nfiru idoda, mluwa su mpati kufiriziya matamata zyenu.
4 Auowtreris, witen not ye, that the frenschip of this world is enemye to God? Therfor who euere wole be frend of this world, is maad the enemye of God.
Mwenga wantu yamuwera ndiri waminika, hashi, muvimana ndiri kuwera ganja gwa pasipanu ndo kuwera mngondu gwa Mlungu? Yoseri yakafira kuwera ganja gwa vitwatira vya pasipanu kalitenda kuwera mngondu gwa Mlungu.
5 Whether ye gessen, that the scripture seith veynli, The spirit that dwellith in you, coueitith to enuye?
Ama namulihola kuwera Malembu Mananagala gahera unakaka pagalonga, “Rohu ulii Mlungu yakamtula mngati mwetu kawera na weya ng'anji.”
6 But he yyueth the more grace; for which thing he seith, God withstondith proude men, but to meke men he yyueth grace.
Kumbiti manemu gatupananwa na Mlungu gawera na makakala nentu, ntambu yagalonga Malembu Mananagala, “Mlungu kawasinga wantu yawawera na malingisi kumbiti kawalanguziya manemu wantu yawawera wananaga.”
7 Therfor be ye suget to God; but withstonde ye the deuel, and he schal fle fro you.
Su mumjimiri Mlungu, mumsingi Shetani, nayomberi hakawatiri.
8 Neiye ye to God, and he schal neiye to you. Ye synneris, clense ye hondis, and ye double in soule, purge ye the hertis.
Mumsegeleri Mlungu, nayomberi hakawasegeleri mwenga. Mguluri mawoku genu mwenga yamutenda vidoda! Muyipungi myoyu yenu mwenga wafyangu!
9 Be ye wretchis, and weile ye; youre leiyyng be turned in to weping, and ioye in to sorewe of herte.
Muweri na hinginiku, mlili na kudaya. Kuseka kwa mwenga kuweri kulila, na nemeleru ya mwenga iweri hinginiku.
10 Be ye mekid in the siyt of the Lord, and he schal enhaunse you.
Mulinanagaziyi kulongolu kwa Mtuwa, nayomberi hakawanyasuli.
11 My britheren, nyle ye bacbite ech othere. He that bacbitith his brothir, ethir that demeth his brothir, bacbitith the lawe, and demeth the lawe. And if thou demest the lawe, thou art not a doere of the lawe, but a domesman.
Walongu, namulitakulirana madoda maweni kwa mwenga. Yakamtakulira madoda mlongu gwakuwi ama kumtoza, muntu ayu kalitakulira madoda na kulitoza Lilagaliru lya Mlungu. Pagulitoza Lilagaliru lya Mlungu, su gwenga gulijimira ndiri Lilagaliru lya Mlungu kumbiti gulitoza.
12 But oon is makere of the lawe, and iuge, that may lese, and delyuere.
Mlungu gweka yakuwi ndo yakatula Lilagaliru na kutoza. Ndo gweka yakuwi hera yakaweza kulopoziya na kwagamiziya. Su gwenga gwa gaa ata gumtozi muyagu?
13 And who art thou, that demest thi neiybore? Lo! now ye, that seien, To dai ethir to morewe we schulen go in to thilke citee, and there we schulen dwelle a yeer, and we schulen make marchaundise, and we schulen make wynning;
Su vinu mpikaniri mwenga yamlonga, “Leru ama shirawu hatugendi mulushi tunga na kulikala aku kwa shipindi sha shinja shoseri, hatuwuzi vintu na kupata mota.”
14 whiche witen not, what is to you in the morewe.
Mwenga muvimana ndiri ata makaliru genu ntambu hagaweri shirawu! Mwenga mulifana na lifukafuka lyalilawira kwa shipindi shididini hera na kuwuka kayi.
15 For what is youre lijf? A smoke apperinge at a litil, and aftirward it schal be wastid. Therfor that ye seie, If the Lord wole, and if we liuen, we schulen do this thing, ether that thing.
Ira memfiriziwi kulonga, “Mtuwa pakafira hatulikali na kutenda ashi ama shilii.”
16 And now ye maken ful out ioye in youre pridis; euery siche ioye is wickyd.
Kumbiti vinu mwankulidumba na kulitumba, matumbiru ga ntambu yoseri ayi ndo madoda.
17 Therfor it is synne to hym, that kan do good, and doith not.
Su muntu yakamana kutenda maheri na pakaleka kutenda, kankutenda vidoda.
