Yaqobeppe 1
1 Xoossa Goda Yesusi Kiristossa oothancha gidida Yaqobeppe biitta bolla laletida tammane nam77u kochatas sarotethi intes gido.
James, a bondservant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ: to the twelve tribes who are scattered over the world. All good wishes.
2 Ta ishato inte bolla duma duma wayey gakkiiko hessa wursi ufaysan qoodite.
Reckon it nothing but joy, my brethren, whenever you find yourselves hedged in by various trials.
3 Gaasoykka inte amano paccetithi intes danda7a immizayssa inte ereetta.
Be assured that the testing of your faith leads to power of endurance.
4 Inte danda7an mini eqanaysi intes issi miishshikka pacconta kumetha assine wothoy bayndayta gidana mala ootho.
Only let endurance have perfect results so that you may become perfect and complete, deficient in nothing.
5 Inte garssafe oonasikka eratethi pacciko oonakka kadhontta ba kiiyatethara wurisos immiza Xoossa wosso; izadeskka imettana.
And if any one of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask God for it, who gives with open hand to all men, and without upbraiding; and it will be given him.
6 Gido attin sidhey baynda amanon wosso. Gaasoykka sidhiiza uray abba qathiza bullahe cariko malakko.
But let him ask in faith and have no doubts; for he who has doubts is like the surge of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed into spray.
7 Hessadey Godape aykokk demana giidi issinokka qoppofo.
A person of that sort must not expect to receive anything from the Lord--
8 He uray nam77u qohaaththaan ooyketidi ba bizza oge bolla hene haane giza asa malakko.
such a one is a man of two minds, undecided in every step he takes.
9 Kase ziiqan diza ura Xoossi dhoqqu histiza gish ufa7etto.
Let a brother in humble life rejoice when raised to a higher position;
10 Asa haroy maata cisha mala qoqofettiza gish dure ura Xoossi ziq histikko ufa7etto.
but a rich man should rejoice in being brought low, for like flowers among the herbage rich men will pass away.
11 Away xugidi maata shullisees; maata ciishayka shullees; iza loo7etethikka dhayees; hessathokka durey hachchi hachchi dabursan diishin iza duretethi dhayees.
The sun rises with his scorching heat and dries up the herbage, so that its flowers drop off and the beauty of its appearance perishes, and in the same way rich men with all their prosperity will fade away.
12 Paccen miinni eqidadey izi anjjetidade. Gaasoyka izi paccera eqitishin Xoossi bena dosizaytas immida ufaysa deyo zawude izi ekkana.
Blessed is he who patiently endures trials; for when he has stood the test, he will gain the victor's crown--even the crown of Life--which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.
13 Oonikka paccetiza gidikko tana Xoossi paccees goppo, gaasoykka Xoossi ase iittan paccena, izi oonakka pacci erena.
Let no one say when passing through trial, "My temptation is from God;" for God is incapable of being tempted to do evil, and He Himself tempts no one.
14 Gido attin issi issi uray paccetizay berika ba iitta amo kalishene baletishekko.
But when a man is tempted, it is his own passions that carry him away and serve as a bait.
15 Amoy qanthetetidape guye nagara yellees. Nagaraykka dicciidape guye hayqo yellees.
Then the passion conceives, and becomes the parent of sin; and sin, when fully matured, gives birth to death.
16 Ta siiqo ishato inte ballettopite.
Do not be deceived, my dearly-loved brethren.
17 Loo7o imotethine kumetha anjjoy wuri bolla Salo poo7ota Aawape wodhetes. Iza achan gede ha yuyiza kuwayka (eshoykka) dena.
Every gift which is good, and every perfect boon, is from above, and comes down from the Father, who is the source of all Light. In Him there is no variation nor the slightest suggestion of change.
18 Nu iza medhetethas koyro bayrata gidana mala ba sheninne ba tuma qaalan nuna yellides.
In accordance with His will He made us His children through the Message of the truth, so that we might, in a sense, be the Firstfruits of the things which He has created.
19 Dosetida ta ishato hayssa yuushi qoppite. Asi wurikka siyanas esoto, hasa7asinne hanqqos esotopo.
You know this, my dearly-loved brethren. But let every one be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to be angry.
20 Asa hanqqoy Xoossa xiiloteth oothena.
For a man's anger does not lead to action which God regards as righteous.
21 Hessa gish tunatethinne dalggida iittatethi intefe kessi yegidi inte shemppo ashanaas danda7iza inte gidon toketida qaala ashketethara ekkite.
Ridding yourselves, therefore, of all that is vile and of the evil influences which prevail around you, welcome in a humble spirit the Message implanted within you, which is able to save your souls.
22 Qaalay gizayssa oothite; attin mela siisi xalala siyzadista gididi interkka intena balethofite.
But prove yourselves obedient to the Message, and do not be mere hearers of it, imposing a delusion upon yourselves.
23 Qaala siyishe siyida qaalay gizayssa oothontadey ba ayfeso mastotera xelliza asa malakko.
For if any one listens but does not obey, he is like a man who carefully looks at his own face in a mirror.
24 Bena xeelli beydi bees; izi ay milatizakone heraka baletti gides.
Although he has looked carefully at himself, he goes away, and has immediately forgotten the sort of man he is.
25 Gido attin bena geshiza loo7o woga xeelli beydi izan minizadey ba siydayssa oothizadeynne balonttadey izi ba oothon anjjetidade gidana.
But he who looks closely into the perfect Law--the Law of freedom--and continues looking, he, being not a hearer who forgets, but an obedient doer, will as the result of his obedience be blessed.
26 Be duuna nagontta berikka ba wozina baleththishe ta ammanayss gizadey berikka bena baleththees. Iza ammanoykka mella hada ammanokko.
If a man thinks that he is scrupulously religious, although he is not curbing his tongue but is deceiving himself, his religious service is worthless.
27 Xoossa Aawa sinthan iittatethi baynda loo7o ammanoy; “Aayanne Aaway hayqqida nayta, istta azinati hayqqida maccashata metotetishin maadonne hayssa alameza tunatethafe bena nagokko.
The religious service which is pure and stainless in the sight of our God and Father is to visit fatherless children and widowed women in their time of trouble, and to keep one's own self unspotted from the world.
