Yaqobeppe 2
1 Ta ishato inte bonchettida Goda Yesussa Kiristosa ammanizayta gidida mala asse besontta ogera maadofiite.
My brethren, do not, with respect for persons, be holding the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, [the Lord] of glory.
2 Worqqa yiich biradhen aaththdi loo7o mayo mayida asi inte shiqqizaso yiikko hessathokka qiita mayo mayidadey he shiqqizaso yiko qaseka hara qiita mayo mayda manqqo uray gelliko loo7o maydaysa duma boncho bonchidi “nees besiiza loo7o utizaso hessa beya” giidi hayinko manqqoza qasse “Ne hen hessan eqa, woykko haa ya ta garisan hugen uta” inte gikko;
For, if there enter into your synagogue a man wearing gold rings in gay clothing, and there enter a destitute man also, in soiled clothing, —
And ye eye him that hath on the gay clothing, and say, Thou, be sitting here, pleasantly, —and, unto the destitute man, say—Thou, stand, or sit there under my footstool,
4 Inte inte garsan besontta maado oothista gideketi? Qasseka inte iitta qofan ooykittida iitta pirda piirdizayta gideketi?
Would ye not have been led to make distinctions among yourselves, and have become judges with wicked reasonings?
5 Ta siiqo ishato ane siyte; isti ammanon durista gidana mala Xoossi bena dosizaytas ufayssan isttas immida kawotetha istti laattana mala hayssa ha alamezan diza manqota dooribeynee?
Hearken! my brethren beloved: —Hath not, God, chosen the destitute in the world [to be] rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?
6 Inte qase manqota kawusheista. Intena waysiza durista gidetene? Intena piirdeso gochizay istta gidetenee?
Whereas, ye, have dishonoured the destitute man! Do not, the rich, oppress you? and, themselves, drag you into courts of justice?
7 Intenan xeygetida boncho Xoossa sunththa zigirizayti ista gidetenee?
Do not, they, defame the noble name which hath been invoked upon you?
8 Maxaafan “Ne lagge ne hu7e mala siiqa” geeteti xaafettida kawo woga inte polikko loo7o oothista.
If ye are, indeed, fulfilling, a royal law, according to the scripture—Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, nobly, are ye doing;
9 Inte besonta maado madikko nagara oothista. woga sinthanka inte woga yedhidade gidi qodistana.
But, if ye are shewing respect of persons, sin, are ye working, being convicted by the law as transgressors!
10 Gaasoykka woga wursi pollizadey qasekka wogape issineyin dhuphetiza uray wursikka moridade mala qoodettees.
For, a man who shall keep, the whole law, but shall stumble in one thing, hath become, for all things, liable, —
11 “Laymatopa” gidadey izikka zaaridi “wodhopa” gides. Ne laymatontta agikokka ne asa wodhikko wogape adhiidade gidaassa.
For, he that hath said—Do not commit adultery, hath also said—Do not commit murder, —now, if thou dost not commit adultery, but dost commit murder, thou hast become a transgressor of law.
12 Inte hasa7a hasa7ishe woykko issi miishshi oothishe intena xiillisiza asa mala gidite.
So, be speaking, and, so, doing, as they who, through means of a law of freedom, are about to be judged;
13 Gaasoykka marontay wurikka maroy baynda pirdistana. Maroy pirda Xoonees.
For, the judgment, [will be] without mercy, unto him that hath shewed no mercy: Mercy, boasteth, over judgment.
14 Ta ishato issi uray taas ammanoy dees gikko qasse oothon besontade gidikko iza ay maadanee? Hesamala amanoy iza ashane?
What profit, my brethren, —if one should be saying he hath, faith, but hath not, works; can his faith save him?
15 Ane qoppite, issi ishay woykko issi michiya mayoy woykko mizayssi baynda aggiko intefe isadey “Inte saron biite, intena megopo, kallite” giiko istta ashos koshizayssa immontta aggikko ay maadanee?
If, a brother or sister, should be naked, and coming short of the daily food,
And one from among you should say unto them—Withdraw in peace, be getting warmed and fed, but should not give them the things needful for the body, What the profit?
17 Hesathokka oothoy baynda ammanoykka bees hayidayssa.
So, also, faith, if it have not works, is dead, by itself.
18 Gido attin isadey “Taas oothoy dees nees ammanoy dees. Neni ne ammano oothope shaakada tana bessa, ta qasse ta ammano oothon nena bessana gikko;
But one will say, —Thou, hast faith, and, I, have works, show me thy faith apart from thy works, and, I, unto thee, will shew, by my works, my faith.
19 Ne “issi Xoossi dizaysa ammanayss” loo7oko; daydanthatikka hessa mala ammanettesinne kehi kokoreetes.
Thou believest that God is, one: thou doest, well—Even the demons believe, and shudder!
20 Neno eeyazo! oothoy baynda ammanos go7ay bayndayssa eranas marikka koyazii?
But art thou willing to learn, O empty man! that, faith, apart from works, is, idle?
21 Nu Aawa Abramey ba na Yisaqa yarshizasoza bolla shiishshida wode oothon xilli beynee?
Abraham our father, was it not, by works, he was declared righteous—when he offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
22 Hessan ammanoy iza oothora isife dizaysanne amanoy ooothon poletidayssa beyazii?
Thou seest that, his faith, had been working together with his works, and by his works did his faith become full-grown, —
23 “Abramey Xoossu ammanides; He amanoy izas xiillotethan qoodetides” giza maxaafa qaalay poletides; izikka Xoossi dosidade geetettides.
And the scripture was fulfilled which saith—And Abraham believed God, And it was reckoned to him as righteousness, and, God’s friend, was he called:
24 Hessa gish asi ammanon xalala gidontta oothonkka xiillizaysa inte beyeista.
Ye see that—by works, a man is declared righteous, and not by faith alone.
25 Hesathokka laymman diza Era7aba kiiteti bida asata mokka ekada hara ogera moyza yedida gish ba oothon xiillabeykee?
And, in like manner also, Rahab the harlot, Was it not, by works, she was declared righteous, when she gave welcome unto the messengers, and, by another way, urged them forth?
26 Shemppofe shaakettida ashoy hayqeeth gidida mala oothopekka shaakettida ammanoy hayqethikko.
Just as, the body, apart from spirit, is dead, so, our faith also, apart from works, is dead.
