Yacquub 1
1 Yacquub, oo ah addoonkii Ilaah iyo Rabbi Ciise Masiix, wuxuu salaan gaadhsiinayaa laba iyo tobanka qolo oo kala firidhsan.
James, a bondservant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ: to the twelve tribes who are scattered over the world. All good wishes.
2 Walaalahayow, kolkaad jirrabaaddo kala cayncayn ah kala kulantaan, kulli farxad u tirsada,
Reckon it nothing but joy, my brethren, whenever you find yourselves hedged in by various trials.
3 idinkoo og tijaabinta rumaysadkiinnu inay dulqaadasho keento.
Be assured that the testing of your faith leads to power of endurance.
4 Oo dulqaadashadu ha dhammayso shuqulkeeda si aad kaamil u ahaataan oo aad u dhanaataan, oo aydnaan waxba ugu baahnaan.
Only let endurance have perfect results so that you may become perfect and complete, deficient in nothing.
5 Laakiin haddii midkiin xigmad u baahan yahay, ha ka baryo Ilaah, kan kulli si deeqsinimo ah u siiya isagoo aan canaanan, oo waa la siin doonaaye.
And if any one of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask God for it, who gives with open hand to all men, and without upbraiding; and it will be given him.
6 Laakiin rumaysad ha ku baryo, isagoo aan shakiyayn, waayo, kii shakiyaa wuxuu la mid yahay hirka badda oo dabayshu kaxayso oo rogrogto.
But let him ask in faith and have no doubts; for he who has doubts is like the surge of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed into spray.
7 Ninkaasu yuusan u malayn inuu Rabbiga wax ka heli doono.
A person of that sort must not expect to receive anything from the Lord--
8 Labaqalbiiluhu wuu ka rogrogmadaa socodkiisa oo dhan.
such a one is a man of two minds, undecided in every step he takes.
9 Walaalkii hooseeyaa ha ku faano sarraysiintiisa,
Let a brother in humble life rejoice when raised to a higher position;
10 kii taajir ahuna ha ku faano hoosaysiintiisa, waayo, wuxuu u idlaan doonaa sida ubaxa cawska.
but a rich man should rejoice in being brought low, for like flowers among the herbage rich men will pass away.
11 Qorraxdu waxay la soo baxdaa kulaylka, wayna engejisaa cawska, oo ubaxiisuna wuu daataa, quruxda midabkiisuna way ka luntaa; sidaas oo kale ayaa taajirku ugu lumi doonaa socodkiisa.
The sun rises with his scorching heat and dries up the herbage, so that its flowers drop off and the beauty of its appearance perishes, and in the same way rich men with all their prosperity will fade away.
12 Waxaa barakaysan ninka jirrabaadda u sii adkaysta, waayo, goortii loo bogo, wuxuu heli doonaa taajka nolosha kan Ilaah u ballanqaaday kuwa isaga jecel.
Blessed is he who patiently endures trials; for when he has stood the test, he will gain the victor's crown--even the crown of Life--which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.
13 Midna yuu odhanin kolkii la jirrabo, Xagga Ilaah baa layga jirrabay. Waayo, Ilaah laguma jirrabo shar, isaguna midna ma jirrabo.
Let no one say when passing through trial, "My temptation is from God;" for God is incapable of being tempted to do evil, and He Himself tempts no one.
14 Mid kasta waxaa jirraba damaciisa sharka ah isagoo la jiidanayo oo la sasabayo.
But when a man is tempted, it is his own passions that carry him away and serve as a bait.
15 Dabadeed damacu kolkuu uuraysto wuxuu dhalaa dembi, dembiguna kolkuu weynaado wuxuu keenaa dhimasho.
Then the passion conceives, and becomes the parent of sin; and sin, when fully matured, gives birth to death.
16 Yaan laydin khiyaanayn, walaalahayga aan jeclahayow.
Do not be deceived, my dearly-loved brethren.
17 Hadiyad kasta oo wanaagsan iyo hibo kasta oo kaamil ah kor bay ka timaadaa iyadoo ka soo degaysa xagga Aabbaha nuurarka isagoo aan lahayn rogrogmad ama hoos laallaabasho.
Every gift which is good, and every perfect boon, is from above, and comes down from the Father, who is the source of all Light. In Him there is no variation nor the slightest suggestion of change.
18 Isagoo doonaya ayuu hadalka runta ah inagu dhalay si aynu u noqonno midhaha ugu horreeya oo uunkiisa.
In accordance with His will He made us His children through the Message of the truth, so that we might, in a sense, be the Firstfruits of the things which He has created.
19 Waad garanaysaan tan, walaalahayga aan jeclahayow. Laakiin nin walba ha u dhaqsado maqlinta, oo ha u gaabiyo hadalka, cadhadana ha u gaabiyo;
You know this, my dearly-loved brethren. But let every one be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to be angry.
20 waayo, dad cadhadiisu ma keento xaqnimada Ilaah.
For a man's anger does not lead to action which God regards as righteous.
21 Sidaas daraaddeed iska fogeeya wasakhnimada oo dhan iyo badnaanta xumaanta; oo qabownimo ku qaata hadalka laydinku tallaalay, kan naftiinna badbaadin kara.
Ridding yourselves, therefore, of all that is vile and of the evil influences which prevail around you, welcome in a humble spirit the Message implanted within you, which is able to save your souls.
22 Noqda kuwa hadalka yeela, oo ha ahaanina kuwa maqla oo keliya oo nafsaddooda khiyaaneeya.
But prove yourselves obedient to the Message, and do not be mere hearers of it, imposing a delusion upon yourselves.
23 Waayo, haddii mid yahay kan hadalka maqla oo keliya, oo uusan ahayn kan yeela, wuxuu la mid yahay nin wejiga abuuristiisa muraayad ku fiirinaya.
For if any one listens but does not obey, he is like a man who carefully looks at his own face in a mirror.
24 Waayo, wuu isfiiriyaa, oo iska tagaa, oo markiiba is-illoobaa siduu ahaa.
Although he has looked carefully at himself, he goes away, and has immediately forgotten the sort of man he is.
25 Laakiin kii fiiriya sharciga kaamilka iyo xorriyadda ah oo ku sii socda, isagoo aan ahayn kan maqla oo illooba laakiin kan shuqulka yeela, kaasu waa ku barakaysnaan doonaa yeeliddiisa.
But he who looks closely into the perfect Law--the Law of freedom--and continues looking, he, being not a hearer who forgets, but an obedient doer, will as the result of his obedience be blessed.
26 Haddii mid isu maleeyo inuu cibaado badan yahay, oo uusan afkiisa xakamayn, laakiin uu qalbigiisa khiyaaneeyo, kaas cibaadadiisu waa wax aan waxtar lahayn.
If a man thinks that he is scrupulously religious, although he is not curbing his tongue but is deceiving himself, his religious service is worthless.
27 Cibaado daahir ah oo aan nijaas lahayn Ilaaha Aabbaha ah hortiisa waxay tahay in la xannaaneeyo agoonta iyo carmallada markay dhib ku jiraan, iyo in layska dhawro wasakhda dunida.
The religious service which is pure and stainless in the sight of our God and Father is to visit fatherless children and widowed women in their time of trouble, and to keep one's own self unspotted from the world.
