Ιακωβου 2
1 Ἀδελφοί μου, μὴ ἐν προσωπολημψίαις ἔχετε τὴν πίστιν τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ τῆς δόξης.
Mwalongo bango kana muibalange imani ya Ngwana witu Yesu Kristu, Ngwana wa Utukufu, kwopendelea bandu fulani.
2 ἐὰν γὰρ εἰσέλθῃ εἰς (τὴν *k*) συναγωγὴν ὑμῶν ἀνὴρ χρυσοδακτύλιος ἐν ἐσθῆτι λαμπρᾷ, εἰσέλθῃ δὲ καὶ πτωχὸς ἐν ῥυπαρᾷ ἐσθῆτι
Kati mundu fulani ajingii mu'mikutano yinu aweti pete ya dhahabu no aweti kinanoga, kabee ajingingile maskini ywabile aweti kwaa kinoyite.
3 (καὶ *ko*) ἐπιβλέψητε (δὲ *no*) ἐπὶ τὸν φοροῦντα τὴν ἐσθῆτα τὴν λαμπρὰν καὶ εἴπητε (αὐτῷ· *k*) σὺ κάθου ὧδε καλῶς, καὶ τῷ πτωχῷ εἴπητε· σὺ στῆθι ἐκεῖ ἢ κάθου (ὧδε *k*) ὑπὸ τὸ ὑποπόδιόν μου,
no laya kumpala muno yolo mwene aweti ngobo inoite no baya “Chonde wenga tama pano pandu panoite” lakini mummakiye yolo maskini, “Wenga yema pano.” au “Tama pae ya magolo gango.”
4 (καὶ *ko*) οὐ διεκρίθητε ἐν ἑαυτοῖς καὶ ἐγένεσθε κριταὶ διαλογισμῶν πονηρῶν;
Je, muhukumiana kwaa mwenga mwabene, ni kua baamuzi babile ni mawazo mabou?
5 ἀκούσατε, ἀδελφοί μου ἀγαπητοί, οὐχ ὁ θεὸς ἐξελέξατο τοὺς πτωχοὺς (τῷ κόσμῳ *N(k)O*) (τούτου *k*) πλουσίους ἐν πίστει καὶ κληρονόμους τῆς βασιλείας ἧς ἐπηγγείλατο τοῖς ἀγαπῶσιν αὐτόν;
Mupekani, mwalongo bango mwapendilwe, je, Nnongo achawile kwaa maskini ba dunia kuapanga matajiri mu imani ni kurithi upwalume waadile babampindile?
6 ὑμεῖς δὲ ἠτιμάσατε τὸν πτωχόν. οὐχ οἱ πλούσιοι καταδυναστεύουσιν ὑμῶν καὶ αὐτοὶ ἕλκουσιν ὑμᾶς εἰς κριτήρια;
Lakini mwasalawile maskini! Je matajiri kwaa kabawatesa mwenga, na bembe kabaaburuta kwaa mahakamani mwenga?
7 οὐκ αὐτοὶ βλασφημοῦσιν τὸ καλὸν ὄνομα τὸ ἐπικληθὲν ἐφ᾽ ὑμᾶς;
Je matajiri kwaa babalitukana lina lelo linoite lyamukemilwe kwake?
8 εἰ μέντοι νόμον τελεῖτε βασιλικὸν κατὰ τὴν γραφήν· ἀγαπήσεις τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς σεαυτόν, καλῶς ποιεῖτε·
Hata nyoo, kati mwatiitimiza yelo saliya ya upwalume kati yaiandikilwe mu'maandiko, “upalikwa kumpenda jirani yako kati wenga wa mwene,” mwapanga vyema.
9 εἰ δὲ προσωπολημπτεῖτε, ἁμαρτίαν ἐργάζεσθε ἐλεγχόμενοι ὑπὸ τοῦ νόμου ὡς παραβάται.
Lakini kati mwaipendile baadhi ya bandu, mwalowa panga sambi, mwahukumu ni saliya kuwa ni watekuwa saliya.
10 ὅστις γὰρ ὅλον τὸν νόμον (τηρήσῃ, πταίσῃ *N(k)O*) δὲ ἐν ἑνί, γέγονεν πάντων ἔνοχος.
Kwanyo ywoywoti ywaifata saliya yoti, na bado akobile nukta yimo tu, abile ni hatia ya tekwana saliya yoti.
11 ὁ γὰρ εἰπὼν μὴ (μοιχεύσῃς, *NK(o)*) εἶπεν καὶ μὴ (φονεύσῃς. *NK(o)*) εἰ δὲ οὐ (μοιχεύεις φονεύεις *N(k)O*) δέ, γέγονας παραβάτης νόμου.
Kwamba Nnongo atebaya, “kana uzini,” nga ywembe abayite, “kana ubulage,” mana uzini kwaa, lakini wabulaga, utekwanike saliya ya Nnongo.
12 οὕτως λαλεῖτε καὶ οὕτως ποιεῖτε ὡς διὰ νόμου ἐλευθερίας μέλλοντες κρίνεσθαι.
Kwa eyo mulongele no kwiheshimu kati balo mubile karibu hukumilwa na saliya ya uhuru.
13 ἡ γὰρ κρίσις ἀνέλεος τῷ μὴ ποιήσαντι ἔλεος· (καὶ *k*) (κατακαυχᾶται ἔλεος *NK(o)*) κρίσεως.
Kwa mana hukumu uisa bila huruma kwa balo babile kwaa ni huruma. Huruma uitukuza yene nnani ya hukumu.
14 Τί τὸ ὄφελος, ἀδελφοί μου, ἐὰν πίστιν λέγῃ τις ἔχειν, ἔργα δὲ μὴ ἔχῃ; μὴ δύναται ἡ πίστις σῶσαι αὐτόν;
Kwina uzuri gani, alongo bango, kati mundu abaya nibile ni imani, lakini abile kwaa ni makowe?
15 ἐὰν (δὲ *k*) ἀδελφὸς ἢ ἀδελφὴ γυμνοὶ ὑπάρχωσιν καὶ λειπόμενοι (ὦσιν *ko*) τῆς ἐφημέρου τροφῆς,
Je yelo imani yawesa kumlopwa? Kati nongo nnalome au nnwawa ni mhitaji wa ngobo au chakulya cha kila lisoba,
16 εἴπῃ δέ τις αὐτοῖς ἐξ ὑμῶν· ὑπάγετε ἐν εἰρήνῃ, θερμαίνεσθε καὶ χορτάζεσθε, μὴ δῶτε δὲ αὐτοῖς τὰ ἐπιτήδεια τοῦ σώματος, τί τὸ ὄφελος;
ni yumo winu kaamakiya, “Muyende kwa imani, mukayote mwoto ni mulye kunanoga,” lakini kana muapeye mahitaji muhimu ya yega, ifaike namani?
17 οὕτως καὶ ἡ πίστις, ἐὰν μὴ ἔχῃ ἔργα, νεκρά ἐστιν καθ᾽ ἑαυτήν.
Imani kichake, kati yabile kwaa ni makowe, ifaike kwaa.
18 Ἀλλ᾽ ἐρεῖ τις· σὺ πίστιν ἔχεις, κἀγὼ κἀγὼ ἔργα ἔχω· δεῖξόν μοι τὴν πίστιν σου (χωρὶς *N(k)O*) τῶν ἔργων (σου, *k*) κἀγώ κἀγώ σοι δείξω ἐκ τῶν ἔργων μου τὴν πίστιν (μου. *k*)
Bado mundu fulani aweza baya, “Ubile ni imani, ni nenga nabile ni makowe.” Nilaye imani yako panga kwaa makowe, ni nenga nalowa kukulaya imani yango kwa makowe gango.
19 σὺ πιστεύεις ὅτι εἷς ἐστιν ὁ θεός· καλῶς ποιεῖς· καὶ τὰ δαιμόνια πιστεύουσιν καὶ φρίσσουσιν.
Wendaamini kuwa kwabile ni Nnongo yumo, ubile sahihi. Lakini nchela nabo batiamini nyoo ni lendema.
20 θέλεις δὲ γνῶναι, ὦ ἄνθρωπε κενέ, ὅτι ἡ πίστις χωρὶς τῶν ἔργων (ἀργή *N(K)O*) ἐστιν;
Je, upala yowa, ywa mundu mpumbavu, namna yolo imani bila makowe ifaike kwaa?
21 Ἀβραὰμ ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν οὐκ ἐξ ἔργων ἐδικαιώθη ἀνενέγκας Ἰσαὰκ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον;
Je Tate bitu kwaa Abrahamu ywaabalangilwe haki kwa makowe gampiite mwana wake Isaka nnani ya madhabahu?
22 βλέπεις ὅτι ἡ πίστις συνήργει τοῖς ἔργοις αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἔργων ἡ πίστις ἐτελειώθη;
Mwabweni kuwa imani yake ipangite kazi ni makowe gake, ni kwa makowe gake, imani yake yaiyikiye kusudio lyake.
23 καὶ ἐπληρώθη ἡ γραφὴ ἡ λέγουσα· ἐπίστευσεν δὲ Ἀβραὰμ τῷ θεῷ καὶ ἐλογίσθη αὐτῷ εἰς δικαιοσύνην καὶ φίλος θεοῦ ἐκλήθη.
Maandiko gatimizwa gagabaya, “Abrahamu atimwamini Nnongo, ni atibalangilwa kuwa mwene haki.”Kwa eyo Abrahamu atikemelwa rafiki ba Nnongo.
24 ὁρᾶτε (τοίνυν *K*) ὅτι ἐξ ἔργων δικαιοῦται ἄνθρωπος καὶ οὐκ ἐκ πίστεως μόνον.
Mwamweni kuwa kwa makowe mundu alowa balangilwa haki, na nga imani kwaa kichake.
25 Ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ Ῥαὰβ ἡ πόρνη οὐκ ἐξ ἔργων ἐδικαιώθη ὑποδεξαμένη τοὺς ἀγγέλους καὶ ἑτέρᾳ ὁδῷ ἐκβαλοῦσα;
Kadhalika, Je abile kwaa Rahabu yolo kahaba ywabalangilwe haki kwa matendo, ywaakaribisha ajumbe ni kuapeleka kwa ndela yenge?
26 ὥσπερ γὰρ τὸ σῶμα χωρὶς πνεύματος νεκρόν ἐστιν, οὕτως καὶ ἡ πίστις χωρὶς (τῶν *ko*) ἔργων νεκρά ἐστιν.
Kwa mana kati ya yega bila roho wawile, nyonyo, imani bila makowe iwile.
