Yaqobeppe 3
1 Ta ishato intefe daroti astamarista gidopeto, gaasoykka nu astamare gididayti aadhetha pirda ekanaysa inte ereista.
Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment.
2 Nu wurikka daro miishan dhuphetoos. Hasa7an dhuphetontadey dikko izi ba asateth loo7athi naganaas danda7iza kumetha asakko.
For we all stumble in many things. Anyone who does not stumble in word is a perfect person, able to bridle the whole body also.
3 Nuni parazota azazanaas bixxala barsidi nu koyda mala istta azazoos.
Indeed, we put bits into the horses’ mouths so that they may obey us, and we guide their whole body.
4 Woykko ane markabista xeelite. Ay gitatanne carikon lagetizayta gidikokka marikabe lagiizadey qeeri laafa laagiza misheyira ba koyizaso efees.
Behold, the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires.
5 Hessathokka asatetha garisan inxxarisi guuthu gida utada giita wollqama oothoro oothoristaysu, qeeri tamay gita wora wostti xuuggi dhaysiizakonne ane yuushi qoppiite.
So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!
6 Inxxarasikka ba bagara tama malakko. Nu asatetha gidon diza iitta alamekko. Asatetha wursa tuniisaysunne asatetha bolla tama gujawusu, besiika gaaname taman xugistana. (Geenna g1067)
And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna (Geenna g1067).
7 Mehey do7ayka kafoti hayssathokka biita bolla gochetizaytinne abba gidon diza medhetethata wursi asi harana danda7esinne istikka haraettida.
For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and sea creature is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind;
8 Gido attin inxxars haranaas danda7ida uray oonikka dena. Wodhiiza maridzdzey izin kumidaronne iza shemppa ekontta iitta mishshikko.
but nobody can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
9 Nuni nu inxxarasayra Godanne Aawa anjjoos. Izinkka Xoossa lemison medhetida asa nayta zaaridi qangoos.
With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men who are made in the image of God.
10 Anjjoynne qangethi issi duunara keezes. Ta ishato hessi hessaththo hananaas bessena.
Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
11 Issi pullto ollafe mal7o haththinne camo haththi pullti erizee?
Does a spring send out from the same opening fresh and bitter water?
12 Ta ishato Balase geetettiza miiththi woyra ayfe woykko woyine miiththi Balase miiththa ayfe ayfanaas danda7ize? Hesathokka camiza hathefe mall7iza haththi bistana danda7ena.
Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh water.
13 Inte garathafe akekara diza ciincca uray oone? cinccay diza gidiko ane ba ootho ashketethan cinccatethara ba loo7o dussan besso.
Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.
14 Qasse camonne qaanatey intena xalala dosiza hanoy inte wozinan diza giikko ootoroteth intes siyetofo. Tumaka kadopiite.
But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, do not boast and do not lie against the truth.
15 Hiini mala eratethiya salloppe gidiku. Hina qasse biittafe; ashopene xala7eppekko.
This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic.
16 qanateyinne berika bena siqqoy dizason wasoynne iitta oothoy wuri dees.
For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.
17 Sallope gidida eratethiya gidikko koyro geshshikko, guyepekka saroteth dosizaro, danda7izaaro, ero gizaro, marotethinne loo7o ayfey kumidarokko. Qasse worodo madontaronne ulon geney bayndaro.
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
18 Saroteth dosiza asati sarotethan zeridi xillotetha ayfe maxeettes.
Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
