< Yakobo 5 >
1 Kale, mmwe abagagga, mukaabe era mwaziirane. Mugenda kujjirwa ennaku.
2 Eby’obugagga byammwe bivunze, n’ebyambalo byammwe biriiriddwa ennyenje.
3 Ezaabu yammwe ne ffeeza bitalazze, era obutalagge bwabyo bwe buliba obujulirwa obulibalumiriza omusango, ne bumalawo omubiri gwammwe ng’omuliro. Mweterekera obugagga olw’ennaku ez’oluvannyuma.
4 Laba abakozi abaakola mu nnimiro zammwe ne mulyazaamaanya empeera yaabwe, bakaaba, n’abaakungula bakungubaga, era amaloboozi g’okwaziirana kwabwe gatuuse mu matu ga Mukama ow’Eggye.
5 Mwesanyusiza ku nsi ne mwejalabya mu bugagga bwammwe. Mwagezza emitima gyammwe nga muli ng’abeetegekera olunaku olw’okubaagirako ebyassava.
6 Atasobyanga mwamusalira omusango okumusinga ne mumutta, ng’ate ye talina bwe yeerwanirako.
7 Noolwekyo abooluganda mugumiikirize, okutuusa amadda ga Mukama waffe, ng’omulimi bw’agumiikiriza ng’alindirira enkuba eya ddumbi n’eya ttoggo okukuza ebibala bye biryoke byengere.
8 Mugumiikirize, era mugume omwoyo, kubanga amadda ga Mukama waffe gali kumpi.
9 Temwemulugunyizagananga mwekka na mwekka, muleme okusalirwa omusango, kubanga Omulamuzi ayimiridde ku luggi.
10 Ekyokulabirako eky’okugumiikiriza n’okubonaabona, be bannabbi abaayogeranga mu linnya lya Mukama.
11 Laba tubayita ba mukisa abo abaagumiikiriza. Yobu yeesiga Mukama, era obulamu bwe butulaga ng’entegeka ya Mukama bwe yatuukirizibwa obulungi; kubanga Mukama wa kisa era ajjudde okusaasira.
12 Naye okusingira ddala byonna, abooluganda, temulayiranga ggulu, oba ensi, oba ekintu kyonna ekirala. Ensonga bw’ebeeranga weewaawo, gamba weewaawo. Bw’ebeeranga si weewaawo gamba si weewaawo, mulyoke mwewale okusalirwa omusango okubasinga.
13 Waliwo mu mmwe ali mu buzibu? Kirungi asabenga olw’obuzibu obwo. N’abo abeetaaga okwebaza, kirungi bayimbirenga Mukama bulijjo ennyimba ez’okumutendereza.
14 Waliwo omulwadde mu mmwe? Kirungi atumye abakulembeze b’Ekkanisa, bamusabire, era bamusiige amafuta, nga bwe basaba Mukama amuwonye.
15 Era okusaba kwabwe nga kuweereddwayo n’okukkiriza, kugenda kumuwonya, kubanga Mukama awonya. Singa obulwadde bwe bwava ku kibi kye yakola, Mukama agenda kumusonyiwa.
16 Noolwekyo mwatulireganenga ebibi byammwe, era buli omu asabirenga munne, mulyoke muwonyezebwe. Okusaba n’omutima omumalirivu ogw’omuntu omutuukirivu, kubeera n’obuyinza bungi, era n’ebivaamu biba bya ttendo.
17 Eriya yali muntu ddala nga ffe, naye bwe yeewaayo n’asaba enkuba ereme okutonnya, enkuba teyatonnya okumalira ddala emyaka esatu n’ekitundu!
18 Ate n’asaba enkuba n’etonnya, omuddo n’ebisimbe byonna ne biddamu okumera.
19 Abooluganda, singa omu ku mmwe akyama n’ava ku mazima, ne wabaawo amukomyawo,
20 omuntu oyo akomyawo munne eri Katonda, aba awonyezza omwoyo gwa munne okufa era ng’amuleetedde n’okusonyiyibwa ebibi byonna.
