Yakobo 4
1 Ivo na malongano longano hulimwe vifumile hwi? Sagavi hwadila afume munyonyozyenyu ambiwi zwazileta ibho muhati wa bhoziwa bhenyu?
From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?
2 Msongwa hatahasagamuli naho. Mbuda nanyililile hala hasaga. Muhawezwa abhenaho, mlwa nalongane nantele sempata nahamo, huje semputa Ongolobhi.
Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.
3 Mputa nantele sagamhwa mbilila nantele sagamhwa mbilila nantele mputa afwatane ne mbombo embibhi, ili nkamwande azibhombele humbibhi zyenyu.
Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.
4 Amwe mwakelo sagammenye aje oholo nensi aje luvisanyo sanaa no Ngolobhi? Nantele, ajagoti goyajile abheholo wensi ohwilola mwena obhibhi wa Ngolobhi.
Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
5 Eshi muiga ansimbo sagazi li eshi gayangwa aje empepo yabheshele mhati mliti ali nokelo tee husababu eyahuliti?
Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?
6 Nantele Ongolobhi afunya wene tee, mwamwomwo enesimbo ziyangao, “Ongolobhi ahukhoma yalini bado nantele ahupela owene ahwishe.”
But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.
7 Eshi hwifumi hwa Ngolobhi penji osetano wope abhashembele afumehulimwe.
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
8 Zobheleli apapepe no Ngolobhi, nantele wope azobhilele hulimwi ozi amakhono genyu, amwe mubhembibhi, hwiyozi amoyogenyu, amwe mubhembibhi hwiyozi amoyogenyu amwe mwamsebha enseebho zibhele.
Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
9 Hwinkongozi nazonde na lile galuzanyi esehozyenyu hubhe hwikongozye nashime hwenyu hubhe huzonde.
Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.
10 Ishi mwemwe hwitagalila hwa gosi nantele adabhabhoswa humwanya.
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
11 Mganjeyangane mwemwe hwamwe, oholo. Mtu yayanga ushingunga no holo wakwe na loje nuholo wakwe ayanga shingunga nedaiizyo nahuilonje endajizyo semzwo gapa endajizyo nantele mzilonga.
Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
12 Ali omo yafumya udajizyo no lozi Ongolobhi omwane ane nguvu ezyahwope na goje awewe nanu wolongaa owamwe tuowapapepe?
There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?
13 Tejelezi amwe mwamyanga “Sanyonu na sadao taibhala pakhaga epa, nakhale mwaha ohwa na bhombe ebiashala nalenganye efaida.”
Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:
14 Yonanu yamenye hatushi hahai fumila shadabho na hwizye hwenyu yenakwano? Wahuji mlengene nashi ibhesu lwalifumila lifumala pashaha nantele nateje.
Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
15 Hwahuji mwezaga uyanje, “nashi omwiza wa Gosi, taidela na bhambe embombo eha na hala.”
For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
16 Nantele eshi mhwivuna huno ngwazyenyu ahwivune hoti ohwo hwahuje mbimbi.
But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.
17 Kwahuje, hwamwane yamenye abhombe amiza nantele saga abhomba hwa mwene oyo huje mbibhi.
Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
