Yakobo 3
1 Bhalongo bhangu sio bhingi bhinu mwilondeka kujha bhalimu, mmanyili kujha, mwipokela hukumu mbaha nesu.
Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment.
2 Kwa kujha twebhoha twikosela mu njela simehele. Kama jhejhioha ijha ikhobhalalepi mu malobhi gha muene, Ojhu ndo munu mkamilifu, ibhuesya kudhibiti mb'ele bhwa muene bhuohakabhele.
For we all stumble in many things. Anyone who doesn’t stumble in word is a perfect person, able to bridle the whole body also.
3 Henu kama twibhweka lijamu sya farasi mu mikoromelu ghya bhene bhikatutii na twibhwesya kusanusa mibhele ghya bhene bhoha.
Indeed, we put bits into the horses’ mouths so that they may obey us, and we guide their whole body.
4 Manyayi kujha Meli, ingawa mbaha na jhisukumibhwa ni mp'ongo n'kali syasilongosibhwa kwa usukani n'debe nesu kulota popoha pala kwailonda nahodha.
Behold, the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires.
5 Fefuefu lunulu ndo kiungo kidebe kya mbhele lakini ikwitufya mabahaha nesu. Langayai n'setu mbaha kyaghwibhuesya kujhakisibhwa kwa cheche sidebe sya muoto!
So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!
6 Lumilu ni luene ndo muoto ndo ulimwengu bhwa bhuovu, bhekibhu miongoni mu fiungo fya mbhele bhuoha na ukajhibheka panani pa muoto njela jha maisha ni bhene kumanyibhwa muoto bhwa kuzimu. (Geenna g1067)
And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
7 Khila aina jha mnyama bhwa mudasi fidege, kyakiboya ni kiumbe kya mubahari kidhibitibhwa ni bhenadamu.
For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and sea creature is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind;
8 Lakini ajhelepi mwanadamu hata mmonga ambajhe ibhwesya kudhibiti lunulu; ndo bhuovu bhwabhubelili kutulila, umemili sumu jha kufisha.
but nobody can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
9 Kwa lunulu tukan'tukusya Bwana ni bhanu ambabho bhabho mbhibhu kwa mfano bhwa Bwana ni Dadi jhitu, ni kwa obhu tukabhalaani bhanu ambabho bhabhombibhu kwa mfano bhwa K'yara.
With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men who are made in the image of God.
10 Mu n'koromelu bhobhuobhu ghwijobha malobhi gha baraka ni laana. Bhalongo bhangu mambo agha ghilondekalepi kujha.
Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
11 Je kisima kimonga wihotola kunegha masi ghaghinogha ni maghibela kunogha?
Does a spring send out from the same opening fresh and bitter water?
12 Bhalongo bhangu, je libehe lya mtini libhuesya kuhogola matunda gha mzeituni, au mzabibu wihogola matunda gha mtini? Bhwala chemichemi jha masi gha muinyu ghipisyalepi masi ghaghabelikujha ni muinyu.
Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh water.
13 Niani kati jha muenga ajhe ni hekima ni bhufahamu? Hebu munu ojhu alasiajhi maisha manofu mu mbombo sya muene kwa bhunyenyekevu bhwabhwitokelana ni hekima.
Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.
14 Lakini kama mujhe ni bhuifu n'kali ni nia jha ubinafsi mu mioyo ghya muenga, musikifuni ni kujobha udesi ni kup'enga bhukweli.
But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don’t boast and don’t lie against the truth.
15 Ejhe hekimalepi jhela jhajhselela kuhoma kunani, lakini badala jhake ndo jha kidunia, na jha kiroholepi, na jha kipepo.
This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic.
16 Kwa kujha papajhele ni bhuifu ni bhubinafsi bhujhele, kujhe ni fuju ni khila matendo maovu.
For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.
17 Lakini hekima jha ihomela kunani, kwanza jhinofu, kisha jhigana amani, bhololo ni bhukarimu, jhajhimemili rehema ni matunda manofu, bila kupendelela bhanu fulani ni bhukweli.
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
18 Ni litunda lya haki lipandibhwa mu amani kwa bhala ambabho bhibho mambo gha amani.
Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
