Yaqobeppe 5
1 Histikko inteno dure asato, ane siiyte. Buro inte bolla gakkana metoza gish yekiite, wu! wu! gi wasiite.
Come, now, you rich men, weep and lament for your miseries that are coming upon you.
2 Inte haaroy buqqides, inte mayoykka bil7ay/baday/ mides.
Your wealth is corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten:
3 Inte worqayinne inte biiray shiyides. He shiydaysikka inte bolla marikatesinne inte ashoy tama mala xuugees. Inte wode wurisethas miishshe shiishshidista.
your gold and your silver are covered with rust; and their rust will be a testimony against you, and will eat your flesh as fire. You have heaped up treasures in the last days.
4 Inte inte wozinan wothite inte kaththi maxishe pe7idaytas istta wollqa waaga inte qanxxontta aggida gish inte bolla wasishe inte achchan deettes. Kaththi maxizayta wassoy wursi danda7iza Goda haythan gakides.
Behold, the hire of the laborers who have reaped your fields, which has been unjustly withheld by you, cries out: and the cries of those who have reaped, have entered into the ears of the Lord of hosts.
5 Inte biitta bolla ishallonne aloo7etethan deyidista, inte wozina shuka galasas dhiikki handadhathidista.
You have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; you have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.
6 Inte intenara eqetontta xiillo asata bolla worido wothidi wodhiidista.
You have condemned and killed the Just One: and he does not set himself against you.
7 Hessa gish ta ishato Goday ha yaana gakanas danda7ite. Goshshe goyizadey biittay loo7o kathth kaxxana gakanaas wani danda7izakone balgo/asura/ irane ofintha ira izi wostti naagizako ane akekkite.
Be patient, therefore, brethren, till the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer looks for the precious fruit of the earth, and waits patiently for it, till he receives the early and the latter rain.
8 Inteka hessaththo danda7ite. Inte wozina miinthite. Gaasoykka Goda yussa gallas matides.
Be you also patient, establish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draws near.
9 Ta ishato inte inte garsan zigretopite, inte zigretiko inte bolla piridistana. Piridanadey heko inte penge bolla eqqides.
Indulge not in complaints against one another, brethren, lest you be condemned: behold, the judge stands before the door.
10 Ta ishato Goda sunththan intes yootida nabeta wayetethinne istta danda7a intes lemuso histti xeellite.
Take, my brethren, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord, as an example of suffering evil, and of patience.
11 Danda7an genccida asata nu istta “IstTi anjjetidayta” gi qoodizayssa inte ereista. Iyobey wanii danda7idakonne inte iza gish siyidista. Goday iza wurisethan ay oothidakone inte beyidista. Goday asas keehi michetizadenne marizadekko.
Behold, we count those happy who endure. You have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the final dealing of the Lord, that the Lord is very compassionate and merciful.
12 Harapeka ta ishato sallon gidin woykko biitta bolla gidin woykko ay mishanka caqqofite; “Ee” gaanas bessiza miishsha gidikko “Ee” giite; “Akaye” gaanas gidiko “Akaye” giite hessafe hara giiko inte bolla pirdistana.
But above all things, my brethren, swear not, either by heaven, or by the earth, or with any other oath: but let your yes, be yes, and your no, be no, lest you fall into condemnation.
13 Inte garisan metotiza uray dizee? Diza gidiko izi wosso. Ufa7etizadey dizee? diza gidiko ufayssa yeethi yeexxo.
Is any one among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any one cheerful? let him sing praise.
14 Inte gidon saketiza assi dizee? diiko wossa keeththa ciimata xeyigo. Isttikka Goda sunththan zayte iza bolla tiyidi izas wosseto.
Is any one among you sick? let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil, in the name of the Lord.
15 Ammanon wossida wossay hargidade pathana. Godaykka iza denthana. Izi nagara oothidade gidikokka Xoossi iza maarana.
And the prayer of faith shall save the sick; and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
16 Hessa gish intekka inte garisan issay issara inte nagara paxxetite; paxana mala issay issas wossite. Xiillo asa wossay wolliqara dees. Wollqama oothokka ooththees.
Confess your faults one to another, and pray for one another, that you may be restored to health: the fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
17 Elasay nu malaka asekko. Izi iray bukontta mala minthi wossin biitta bolla hezdzdu laythanne bagga gakanaas iray bukiibeyna.
Elijah was a man with passions like our own; and he earnestly prayed that it might not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months.
18 Qasseka zaari wossin iray sallope biitta bolla bukides. Biittayka kaath immides.
And he prayed again; and the heavens gave rain, and the earth brought forth its fruit.
19 Ta ishato intefe issadey tumape baletin hara uray iza zaariko hessa wozinan wothiite. Nagarancha izi balletida ogepe iza zaaridadey he uray shempo hayqope ashesinne izaade nagara darozaka kammees.
Brethren, if any among you should err from the truth, and one should turn him back,
let him know that he who turns back a sinner from the error of his way, will save a soul from death, and cover a multitude of sins.
