UJakhobe 1
1 UJakhobe inceku kaNkulunkulu leyeNkosi uJesu Khristu, Kuzo izizwana ezilitshumi lambili ezihlakazekele phakathi kwezizwe: Ngiyalibingelela.
īśvarasya prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasya ca dāso yākūb vikīrṇībhūtān dvādaśaṁ vaṁśān prati namaskṛtya patraṁ likhati|
2 Bazalwane bami, lapho lisehlelwa yizilingo ezitshiyeneyo, kubaleni njengentokozo epheleleyo
he mama bhrātaraḥ, yūyaṁ yadā bahuvidhaparīkṣāṣu nipatata tadā tat pūrṇānandasya kāraṇaṁ manyadhvaṁ|
3 ngoba liyakwazi ukuthi ukuhlolwa kokholo lwenu kukhulisa ukubekezela.
yato yuṣmākaṁ viśvāsasya parīkṣitatvena dhairyyaṁ sampādyata iti jānītha|
4 Ukubekezela kufanele kuwuqede umsebenzi wakho ukuze lina likhule njalo liphelele, lingasileli ngalutho.
tacca dhairyyaṁ siddhaphalaṁ bhavatu tena yūyaṁ siddhāḥ sampūrṇāśca bhaviṣyatha kasyāpi guṇasyābhāvaśca yuṣmākaṁ na bhaviṣyati|
5 Nxa omunye wenu eswela ukuhlakanipha kumele acele kuNkulunkulu onika bonke ngesihle engadinganga sici, ngempela uzakuphiwa.
yuṣmākaṁ kasyāpi jñānābhāvo yadi bhavet tarhi ya īśvaraḥ saralabhāvena tiraskārañca vinā sarvvebhyo dadāti tataḥ sa yācatāṁ tatastasmai dāyiṣyate|
6 Kodwa lapho ecela kumele akholwe angathandabuzi ngoba othandabuzayo unjengegagasi lolwandle eliphetshulwa ngumoya uliphose.
kintu sa niḥsandehaḥ san viśvāsena yācatāṁ yataḥ sandigdho mānavo vāyunā cālitasyotplavamānasya ca samudrataraṅgasya sadṛśo bhavati|
7 Umuntu lowo akumelanga acabange ukuthi kulolutho azaluthola eNkosini;
tādṛśo mānavaḥ prabhoḥ kiñcit prāpsyatīti na manyatāṁ|
8 ungumuntu ongqondombili, kazinzanga kukho konke akwenzayo.
dvimanā lokaḥ sarvvagatiṣu cañcalo bhavati|
9 Umzalwane olesimo esiphansi kumele aziqhenye ngesikhundla sakhe esiphezulu.
yo bhrātā namraḥ sa nijonnatyā ślāghatāṁ|
10 Kodwa lowo onothileyo kumele aziqhenye ngesikhundla sakhe esiphansi, ngoba uzadlula njengeluba leganga.
yaśca dhanavān sa nijanamratayā ślāghatāṁyataḥ sa tṛṇapuṣpavat kṣayaṁ gamiṣyati|
11 Ngoba ilanga liphuma litshisa okuhangulayo libunise ihlumela, umqhakazo walo uwohloke lobuhle balo buphele. Ngokufanayo umuntu onothileyo uzanyamalala elokhu esawenza umsebenzi wakhe.
yataḥ satāpena sūryyeṇoditya tṛṇaṁ śoṣyate tatpuṣpañca bhraśyati tena tasya rūpasya saundaryyaṁ naśyati tadvad dhaniloko'pi svīyamūḍhatayā mlāsyati|
12 Ubusisiwe umuntu oqiniselayo ekulingweni, ngoba lapho esephumelele ekuhlolweni, uzaphiwa umqhele wokuphila, ukuphila uNkulunkulu akuthembisa labo abamthandayo.
yo janaḥ parīkṣāṁ sahate sa eva dhanyaḥ, yataḥ parīkṣitatvaṁ prāpya sa prabhunā svapremakāribhyaḥ pratijñātaṁ jīvanamukuṭaṁ lapsyate|
13 Ekulingweni, kakho okumele athi, “UNkulunkulu uyangilinga.” Ngoba uNkulunkulu angeke alingwe yibubi, futhi kalingi muntu;
īśvaro māṁ parīkṣata iti parīkṣāsamaye ko'pi na vadatu yataḥ pāpāyeśvarasya parīkṣā na bhavati sa ca kamapi na parīkṣate|
14 kodwa lowo lalowo ulingwa yinkanuko yakhe embi, lapho edonselwa kude ehugwa.
kintu yaḥ kaścit svīyamanovāñchayākṛṣyate lobhyate ca tasyaiva parīkṣā bhavati|
15 Ngakho-ke, nxa inkanuko isidaliwe izala isono; njalo isono lapho sesikhulile okugcweleyo, sizala ukufa.
tasmāt sā manovāñchā sagarbhā bhūtvā duṣkṛtiṁ prasūte duṣkṛtiśca pariṇāmaṁ gatvā mṛtyuṁ janayati|
16 Lingakhohliswa bazalwane bami abathandekayo.
he mama priyabhrātaraḥ, yūyaṁ na bhrāmyata|
17 Zonke izipho ezinhle lezipheleleyo zivela phezulu, zehlele phansi zivela kuYise wezibane zasezulwini, ongaguqukiyo njalo ongelathunzi lokuphenduka.
yat kiñcid uttamaṁ dānaṁ pūrṇo varaśca tat sarvvam ūrddhvād arthato yasmin daśāntaraṁ parivarttanajātacchāyā vā nāsti tasmād dīptyākarāt pituravarohati|
18 Wakhetha ukusizala ngelizwi leqiniso ukuze sibe luhlobo lwezithelo zakuqala kukho konke akudalayo.
tasya sṛṣṭavastūnāṁ madhye vayaṁ yat prathamaphalasvarūpā bhavāmastadarthaṁ sa svecchātaḥ satyamatasya vākyenāsmān janayāmāsa|
19 Bazalwane bami abathandekayo, qaphelani lokhu: Umuntu wonke kumele aphange alalele, aphuze ukukhuluma, njalo aphuze lokuthukuthela
ataeva he mama priyabhrātaraḥ, yuṣmākam ekaiko janaḥ śravaṇe tvaritaḥ kathane dhīraḥ krodhe'pi dhīro bhavatu|
20 ngoba ukuthukuthela komuntu kakulethi ukuphila okulungileyo okufiswa nguNkulunkulu.
yato mānavasya krodha īśvarīyadharmmaṁ na sādhayati|
21 Ngakho-ke, lahlani amanyala wonke lobubi obande kangaka, lilamukele ngokuthobeka ilizwi elahlanyelwa kini, elingalisindisa.
ato heto ryūyaṁ sarvvām aśucikriyāṁ duṣṭatābāhulyañca nikṣipya yuṣmanmanasāṁ paritrāṇe samarthaṁ ropitaṁ vākyaṁ namrabhāvena gṛhlīta|
22 Lingalaleli ilizwi nje kuphela, beselizikhohlisa ngalokho. Yenzani lokho elikutshoyo.
aparañca yūyaṁ kevalam ātmavañcayitāro vākyasya śrotāro na bhavata kintu vākyasya karmmakāriṇo bhavata|
23 Loba ngubani olalela ilizwi kodwa angaze enza elikutshoyo unjengomuntu okhangela ubuso bakhe esibukweni
yato yaḥ kaścid vākyasya karmmakārī na bhūtvā kevalaṁ tasya śrotā bhavati sa darpaṇe svīyaśārīrikavadanaṁ nirīkṣamāṇasya manujasya sadṛśaḥ|
24 kuthi esezibukile asuke ahle akhohlwe ukuthi unjani.
ātmākāre dṛṣṭe sa prasthāya kīdṛśa āsīt tat tatkṣaṇād vismarati|
25 Kodwa umuntu owukhangela ngenjongo umthetho opheleleyo oletha ukukhululeka, njalo aqhubeke esenza lokhu engakhohlwa asekuzwile, kodwa ekwenza, uzabusiswa kulokho akwenzayo.
kintu yaḥ kaścit natvā mukteḥ siddhāṁ vyavasthām ālokya tiṣṭhati sa vismṛtiyuktaḥ śrotā na bhūtvā karmmakarttaiva san svakāryye dhanyo bhaviṣyati|
26 Nxa umuntu ecabanga ukuthi uyakholwa kodwa engabambi ulimi lwakhe okuqinileyo, uyazikhohlisa njalo lokholo lwakhe luyize.
anāyattarasanaḥ san yaḥ kaścit svamano vañcayitvā svaṁ bhaktaṁ manyate tasya bhakti rmudhā bhavati|
27 Ukukholwa okwamukelwa nguNkulunkulu uBaba okuhlambulukileyo njalo kungelasici yilokhu: ukugcina izintandane labafelokazi ekuhluphekeni kwabo, kanye lokuzigcina thina ngokwethu ekungcolisweni ngumhlaba.
kleśakāle pitṛhīnānāṁ vidhavānāñca yad avekṣaṇaṁ saṁsārācca niṣkalaṅkena yad ātmarakṣaṇaṁ tadeva piturīśvarasya sākṣāt śuci rnirmmalā ca bhaktiḥ|
