Yakobo 3
1 Bhana bhasu, jitalyati abhamfu mwimwe omutula okubha bheigisha, mumenyati echilamila indamu nene.
Μὴ πολλοὶ διδάσκαλοι γίνεσθε, ἀδελφοί μου, εἰδότες ὅτι μεῖζον κρίμα ληψόμεθα.
2 Kulwokubha bhona echikaya kwa mbala nyamfu. Labha wonawona atakwikujula mukuloma kwae, oyo ni munu mulengelesi, katula ogutangasha omubhili gwae gwona.
Πολλὰ γὰρ πταίομεν ἅπαντες. Εἴ τις ἐν λόγῳ οὐ πταίει, οὗτος τέλειος ἀνήρ, δυνατὸς χαλιναγωγῆσαι καὶ ὅλον τὸ σῶμα.
3 Woli labha echitamo ebhyuma mu farasi muminwa jajo na njichungwa, na echitula okujiindula emibhili jajo jona.
Ἰδού, τῶν ἵππων τοὺς χαλινοὺς εἰς τὰ στόματα βάλλομεν πρὸς τὸ πείθεσθαι αὐτοὺς ἡμῖν, καὶ ὅλον τὸ σῶμα αὐτῶν μετάγομεν.
4 Menyati imeli, nolo kutyo ninene eisilwa no muyaga mukali, ejitangashwa no lusukali lutoto muno okuja wona wona anu kenda omugofi.
Ἰδού, καὶ τὰ πλοῖα, τηλικαῦτα ὄντα, καὶ ὑπὸ σκληρῶν ἀνέμων ἐλαυνόμενα, μετάγεται ὑπὸ ἐλαχίστου πηδαλίου, ὅπου ἂν ἡ ὁρμὴ τοῦ εὐθύνοντος βούληται.
5 Kutyo kutyo, olulimi ni chiungo chitoto cho mubhili, nawe echikuisha makulu muno. Lola lisaka linene lwakutyo elyochwa na jinsase ntilu jo mulilo!
Οὕτω καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα μικρὸν μέλος ἐστί, καὶ μεγαλαυχεῖ. Ἰδού, ὀλίγον πῦρ ἡλίκην ὕλην ἀνάπτει.
6 Olulimi wona ni mulilo, ninsi yo bhunyamke, luteweyo amwi mwe bhiungo bhyo mubhili gweswe, lunu olunyamula mubhili gwona no ogulutula ingulu yo mulilo injila yo bhulame, no lwenene okwochwa nomulilo gwa nyombe. (Geenna g1067)
Καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα πῦρ, ὁ κόσμος τῆς ἀδικίας· οὕτως ἡ γλῶσσα καθίσταται ἐν τοῖς μέλεσιν ἡμῶν, ἡ σπιλοῦσα ὅλον τὸ σῶμα, καὶ φλογίζουσα τὸν τροχὸν τῆς γενέσεως, καὶ φλογιζομένη ὑπὸ τῆς γεέννης. (Geenna g1067)
7 Bhuli nyami ya jintyanyi ja mwipoli, jinyonyi, chinu echikwesa ne chimogwa cha munyanja ebhitulwa no mwana munu.
Πᾶσα γὰρ φύσις θηρίων τε καὶ πετεινῶν, ἑρπετῶν τε καὶ ἐναλίων, δαμάζεται καὶ δεδάμασται τῇ φύσει τῇ ἀνθρωπίνῃ·
8 nawe atalio mwana munu nolo umwi unu katula okulutangasha olulimi; nilunyamke lunu lutakuoyelao, lwijuye obhusungu bhwo kwita.
τὴν δὲ γλῶσσαν οὐδεὶς δύναται ἀνθρώπων δαμάσαι· ἀκατάσχετον κακόν, μεστὴ ἰοῦ θανατηφόρου.
9 Kwo lulimi echimukuya Latabhugenyi na Lata weswe, na kwolwo echibhafumilisha abhanu bhanu bhamogelwe kwo lususo lwa Nyamuanga.
Ἐν αὐτῇ εὐλογοῦμεν τὸν Θεὸν καὶ πατέρα, καὶ ἐν αὐτῇ καταρώμεθα τοὺς ἀνθρώπους τοὺς καθ᾿ ὁμοίωσιν Θεοῦ γεγονότας·
10 Okusoka mukanwa omwo omwo owaika amagambo ge chigongo na gofumilisha. Bhana bhasu amagambo ganu gateile kubha.
ἐκ τοῦ αὐτοῦ στόματος ἐξέρχεται εὐλογία καὶ κατάρα. Οὐ χρή, ἀδελφοί μου, ταῦτα οὕτω γίνεσθαι.
11 Angu, lijibha limwi elitula okusosha amanji amanule na masaliji?
Μήτι ἡ πηγὴ ἐκ τῆς αὐτῆς ὀπῆς βρύει τὸ γλυκὺ καὶ τὸ πικρόν;
12 Bhana bhasu, Angu, liti lyo mutini elitula okutwasha amatwasho go mujaiituni, nolo omujabhibhu ogutwasha amatwasho go mutini? Nolo omugela gwa manji go munyu gutakusosha manji ganu gatana munyu.
Μὴ δύναται, ἀδελφοί μου, συκῆ ἐλαίας ποιῆσαι, ἢ ἄμπελος σῦκα; Οὕτως οὐδεμία πηγὴ ἁλυκὸν καὶ γλυκὺ ποιῆσαι ὕδωρ.
13 Niga umwi mwimwe unu ali mwengeso no kusombokelwa? Omunu oyo oleshe obhulame bhwekisi mumilimu jae kwo kwikeya no bhwengeso.
Τίς σοφὸς καὶ ἐπιστήμων ἐν ὑμῖν; Δειξάτω ἐκ τῆς καλῆς ἀναστροφῆς τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ ἐν πρᾳΰτητι σοφίας.
14 Nawe labha omulola olwiso lwamfu na intungwa yo kwisolola mumioyo jemwe, mtekuya no kwaika olubheyi mulema okwikilisha echimali.
Εἰ δὲ ζῆλον πικρὸν ἔχετε καὶ ἐριθείαν ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ ὑμῶν, μὴ κατακαυχᾶσθε καὶ ψεύδεσθε κατὰ τῆς ἀληθείας.
15 Bhunu tibhwengeso bhunu bhasokele ingulu, nawe bhunu ni bhwechalo, bhutali bhwa chinyamwoyo, ni bhwa masabhwa.
Οὐκ ἔστιν αὕτη ἡ σοφία ἄνωθεν κατερχομένη, ἀλλ᾿ ἐπίγειος, ψυχική, δαιμονιώδης.
16 Kulwokubha anu luliolwiso no bhwisolole bhulio, ilio inyogele na bhuli bhikolwa bhinyamke.
Ὅπου γὰρ ζῆλος καὶ ἐριθεία, ἐκεῖ ἀκαταστασία καὶ πᾶν φαῦλον πρᾶγμα.
17 Nawe obhwengeso bhunu obhusoka ingulu, okwamba niyakisi, eiya niyenda omulembe, obhwololo no bhufula, inu ijuye echigongo na matwasho gakisi, itakusolola bhanu bhalebhe, ne chimali.
Ἡ δὲ ἄνωθεν σοφία πρῶτον μὲν ἁγνή ἐστιν, ἔπειτα εἰρηνική, ἐπιεικής, εὐπειθής, μεστὴ ἐλέους καὶ καρπῶν ἀγαθῶν, ἀδιάκριτος καὶ ἀνυπόκριτος.
18 Na litwasho lyo bhulengelesi eliyambhwa mu mulembe kubhanu abhakola amagambo go mulembe.
Καρπὸς δὲ τῆς δικαιοσύνης ἐν εἰρήνῃ σπείρεται τοῖς ποιοῦσιν εἰρήνην.
