Yaqobeppe 5
1 Histikko inteno dure asato, ane siiyte. Buro inte bolla gakkana metoza gish yekiite, wu! wu! gi wasiite.
Come now, you rich, howl as you weep over your distresses that are coming upon you!
2 Inte haaroy buqqides, inte mayoykka bil7ay/baday/ mides.
Your wealth has decayed and your clothes have become 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 silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire—you stored it up for 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.
Look, the wages of the workers who cut your fields, that were unjustly held back by you, cry out, and the loud cries of the reapers have entered the ears of the Lord of Hosts.
5 Inte biitta bolla ishallonne aloo7etethan deyidista, inte wozina shuka galasas dhiikki handadhathidista.
You have lived on the earth in self-indulgence and luxury, you fattened your hearts as in a day of slaughter.
6 Inte intenara eqetontta xiillo asata bolla worido wothidi wodhiidista.
You condemned, you murdered the righteous—he offers you no resistance.
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.
Therefore, brothers, be patient until the coming of the Lord. Consider, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it until it receives the early and late rain.
8 Inteka hessaththo danda7ite. Inte wozina miinthite. Gaasoykka Goda yussa gallas matides.
You also be patient. Keep your hearts firm, because the coming of the Lord has approached.
9 Ta ishato inte inte garsan zigretopite, inte zigretiko inte bolla piridistana. Piridanadey heko inte penge bolla eqqides.
Do not groan against one another, brothers, lest you be judged. Look, the Judge is standing at your doors!
10 Ta ishato Goda sunththan intes yootida nabeta wayetethinne istta danda7a intes lemuso histti xeellite.
Brothers, take as an example the patient bearing of hardship and the steadfastness of the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
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.
Indeed we count as blessed those who endure—you have heard of the perseverance of Job and have seen the final outcome given by the Lord, that He 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, my brothers, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or any other oath. Let your “Yes” be “Yes”, and your “No”, “No”, lest you fall into pretense.
13 Inte garisan metotiza uray dizee? Diza gidiko izi wosso. Ufa7etizadey dizee? diza gidiko ufayssa yeethi yeexxo.
Is anyone among you suffering hardship? Let him pray. Is anyone 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 anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the congregation, 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 will deliver the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he has committed sin, it will 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 transgressions to one another and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous one, being operative, is very powerful.
17 Elasay nu malaka asekko. Izi iray bukontta mala minthi wossin biitta bolla hezdzdu laythanne bagga gakanaas iray bukiibeyna.
Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly for it not to 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 heaven gave rain and the earth produced 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.
Brothers, if anyone among you should wander away from the truth, and someone should turn him back,
let him know that the one who turns a sinner back from the error of his way will deliver a soul from death and will remove from sight a multitude of sins.
