James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
2 Ngoogv ajin vdw, vdwlo nonugv lamtv lo nvgwng mvnwng gv hindwkkaku ngv aajvka um alv yanvbv mvngpu gvya tvlaka,
Count it all joy, my brethren, when ye fall into various temptations;
3 Vkvlvgavbolo nonu chindu vdwlo nonugv mvngjwng namv jwngjwk dubv ritvrinyi vkvnv hindwkkaku namv doodu, kaakakunamv vv nonugv rilagvnv am paamu dunv.
knowing that the trying of your faith worketh endurance.
4 Hinchingla rinamv nonugv lamtv mvnwng lo gimup momabv vnggvla ridubv mvrung dunv, vkvlvgavbolo hoka nonu rvbwngching laduku okv ripwngrinya laduku, oguguka achialin manamgo kaama laduku.
But let endurance have a perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting in nothing.
5 Vbvritola nonu gvlo mvngkimvnglak madu bolo, Pwknvyarnvnyi kumrung tvlaka, hv nonua jire; ogulvgavbolo Pwknvyarnv jinwngnam dvdv nga okv mvnwng nga jinv ngv.
But if any one of you is wanting in wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it will be given him.
6 Vbvritola vdwlo nonu kumredw, nonu mvngjwng rungto laka okv ogumvnwng nga mvngngum dvdvla riyoka. Yvvdw mvngngum la ridudw hv svmasa lvralvpa lo doori mila oogv sibu nuunam aingbv ridunv.
But let him ask in faith, nothing doubting; for he that doubteth is like a wave of the sea driven by the wind and tossed.
7 Nonu oogv aingbv ridubolo, nonugv mvngrum aralo mvngla manv okv rinam dvdvlo mvngpi lakmanv, Ahtu gvlokv nonu oguguka paanvpv mvngla rungmare.
For let not that man think that he shall receive anything from the Lord,
a double-minded man as he is, unstable in all his ways.
9 Heema bv rinv kristan vdwv vdwlo Pwknvyarnv heema lokv nyitv dukubv bunua laacha rekudw um mvngpu rungto laka,
Let the brother of low degree glory in that he is exalted;
10 okv nyitv bv rinv kristan vdwv vdwlo Pwknvyarnv heema dubv bunua laalu rikudw vvka mvngpu rungto laka. Vkvlvgavbolo nyitv vdwv mootum apung gv siriuriua nam aingbv riri nvpv.
but the rich, in that he is made low; because as the flower of the grass he will pass away.
11 Doonyi gv chaatarchanya ikunyi agurusok lakula okv nvsinnvmwng nga sinsuk mola kaayuk duku; ho apung ngv hoolahuaa duku, okv vkvgv kaapu vka nyeduku. Oogv aingbv bunu korvpachu rikwng jvka nyitv ngv nyenam bv nyereku.
For the sun rose with its burning heat, and withered the grass, and its flower fell off, and the beauty of its appearance perished; so also will the rich man fade away in his ways.
12 Hindwkkaku nga hinjeka yvvdw mvngjwng nga vngdwng bv vvpvla ridunv hv himpu am paare, vkvlvgavbolo vdwlo bunu vkvnv rikwhingkw namv vngbo rikudw, Pwknvyarnv gv paknam vdwa jidubv vla milvpvvnam oogv turnam amin am bunugv paasvnga bunu paareku.
Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he is approved, he will receive the crown of life, which He promised to them that love him.
13 Ngonu svkvnv pokayarka namgo aajvka, “si Pwknvyarnv gvlo aadunv vla mirung mabvka.” Vkvlvgavbolo Pwknvyarnv alvmanv lokv pokayarka madunv, okv nw awv yvvnyika pokayarka madunv.
Let no one when he is tempted, say, I am tempted by God; for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he tempteth no one.
14 Vbvritola ngonua pokayarka la ridunam si vdwlo ngonu mvngjimvngrio la okv atubogv alvmanv mvngnam lokv kuplwksudu.
But each one is tempted when by his own lust he is led away and enticed;
15 Vbvrinamv ngonugv alvmanv mvngjimvngro nama gvvbum pvvku lokv okv rimur am kuu bv bvnglin duku; okv rimure, vdwlo akomaring rikudw, vv sinam bv bvngdu kunv.
then lust, having conceived, bringeth forth sin, and sin, when completed, bringeth forth death.
16 Ngoogv ajin vdwv, Kupku yoka!
Do not err, my beloved brethren.
17 Alvnv amin dvdv ngv okv ogumvnwng vjvgv rilak rikunamv nyidomooku lokv aadunv; vv Pwknvyarnv gv lokv aadunv, nyidomooku gv ungbiatata gvnv nga Pwklinyarlinnv ngv, oogv vdwloka akupav manv vmajvka kanv kaamanv.
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the lights, with whom is no change, nor shadow from turning.
18 Vkvlvgavbolo ninyigv pwknamyarnam dvdvlo ngonuv atuake lo doocho modukubv vla, ninyigv awgv mvngnam lokv ngv vkvgv jvjvrungnv gaam lokv ngonua laalwk toku.
Of his own will he begot us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first-fruits of his creatures.
19 Ngoogv ayanam ajin vdwv, sum mvnggap tvlaka! nyi mvnwng ngv nonu baapu alvbv tvvgap rungto laka, vbvritola gaam minam am tapv bv minto laka okv dokchachaba nvgobv riyoka.
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.
20 Nyia haachi gv sakcha namv Pwknvyarnv gv darwkchongjor mvngdung nga paama dunv.
For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
21 Vkvlvgabv ogumvnwng gv kasingkanyak okv alvmanv rigvdogvnam dvdv nga um kayu tvkuka. Oogv nonua ringlin lajikunv, Pwknvyarnv gvlo laklwk sutoka okv nonugv haapok lo vkvgv gamchar jilwk nama laarwk suto laka.
Wherefore put off all filthiness, and excess of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
22 Nonuno ninyigv gamchar am tvvnv mvngchik gobv ridula atu nvnga kupsu yoka; vbvmayabv gamchar yanga tvvla rinvdagnv gobv rito laka.
But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
23 Nonu gamchar am tvvnvgobv ridula, vbvritola rinvdaknv gobv rima dubolo nonuno vkvnv nyi aingbv ridu oogv tumuyalu lo awv nyukmu am bunu atubogv oguaingbv ripvdw kaasu mvngchik sunam aingbv ridu.
For if any one is a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like a man beholding his natural face in a glass;
24 Bunu atubogv aw am lvkingo alvjvbv kaasu pikula okv vngreku okv vjakpiak bv bunugv aw kaasu nama oguaingbv ripvdw um mvngpa sukumare.
for he beholds himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what manner of man he was.
25 Vbvritola oogv nyi am ajarabi bv rimu kujinv Pvbv rvbwngchingnv um alvjvbv kaanvk chikvk la, okv alvjvbv tvvgap la okv tvvnam mvngchik bv tvvmabv okv vbv mvngpa mabv rimabv okv vbvritola rinvdaknv gobv ribolo—nonuno ogugo ridudw Pwknvyarnv nonua boktalwkjire.
But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty, and remains there, being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man will be blessed in his deed.
26 Nonu yvvla mvngdunv nonuno dormo ridunv? Nonugv riu am laatung sima dubolo, nonugv dormo rinamv anyung kaama nvbv ridu okv nonuno atubonga kupsu dunv.
If any one thinks that he is religious, and bridles not his tongue, but deceives his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
27 Pwknvyarnv Abu gv mvnglwk bv darwkla okv dormo rijwknam si: opin okv hvngmi vdwa bunugv hindarkaso am kaagurnam okv nyiamooku sokvgv alvmanam am atubongv kaachingkaamu sinam um rijwk nvbv tulwkdu.
Pure religion and undefiled before God, the Father, is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep one's self unspotted from the world.
