Jems 2
1 Ngoogv ajin vdw, ngonugv Ahtu Jisu Kristo gv yunglit gv Ahtunyi mvngjwngnv gobv ridula nonuno vdwloka nyi vdwgv aolo gvvnambunam am kaala vbv angusibv riyoka.
My brothers, do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus (the) Messiah of glory with partiality.
2 Nyitv nyi go ain lakchap gvvnv okv alvnv vji koonv go, okv heema nyi vji jeinjipen koonv go doopam lo aabolo
For if someone with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your synagogue, and a poor person in filthy clothing also comes in;
3 um nonuno oogv vji alvbv koonv um alvyasin bv mvngdv la, ninyia mindu, “alvychoknv dotum so dootoka vdu,” vbvritola heemanv nyi am mindu, “alo daktoka vdu, vmalo nyopia sika ngoogv lvpa kampwk lo dootung tvka vdubolo,”
and you pay special attention to the one who wears the fine clothing, and say, "Sit here in a good place;" but you tell the poor person, "Stand there," or "Sit by my footstool."
4 vbvrikunamv nonugv aralo atubongv akiumariam la rigak palindu okv alvmabv mvngnam lo jwngladala riduku.
Have you not discriminated among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
5 Ngoogv aya minsunam ajin vdwv, tvvgap sitoka! nyiamooku soogv heema nyi vdwa, mvngjwng lo nyitv dubv okv oogv yvvdw ninyia pakdudw karv lo doopa dubv hv milvpvvla rikunam um paamu dukubv vla Pwknvyarnv darpv kunv.
Listen, my beloved brothers. Did not God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?
6 Vbvritola nonuno heema nga mvngdv madu! yvvdw nonua heema vdwa minjapminrap jinv okv nonua jwnkadaka jinv gv kaagialo svvlin kujinv? nyitv vdwv!
But you have dishonored the poor person. Do not the rich oppress you, and personally drag you before the courts?
7 Vv bunu laka oogv nonua alvnv amin jinam am alvmabv minjinv ngv.
Do not they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?
8 Nonu Karv gv Pvbv am tvvdu bolo vv nonu alvnv kudungkua nga ridungdu, oogv Darwknv kitap lo kaapanam aingbv, “nonugv aw am paksunam aingbv namrwksuku aka paktoka.”
However, if you fulfill the royal law, according to the Scripture, "You are to love your neighbor as yourself," you do well.
9 Vbvritola nonuno nyi gv aolo gvvnambuknam am kaala ridubolo, nonuno rimur lo rigak paklwkdu, okv Pvbv ngv nonua pvbv mvkmvrwk yanv ako bv miyakaya la riduku.
But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.
10 Yvvdw Gamkinam akin gonyi mvkmvrwk jipvdw vv Gamkinam mvnwng nga mvkmvrwk yanv gobv ridunv.
For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.
11 Hogv minv akinnv minto, “yojuk nvgobv rimabvka,” vbvka mindvto, “nonuno gwngrw gwkyoka.” Nonuno yojuk nvgobv rima jvka, gwngrw gwknv gobv ribolo vvka Pvbv mvyak nvgobv rire.
For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," also said, "Do not commit murder." Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.
12 Nyi vdwgv oogv pvbv lokv ngonua anyutaku bv taalin dukubv jwngkadaka la rinam aingbv mintoka okv ritoka.
So speak, and so do, as those who are to be judged by a law of freedom.
13 Holvgabv yvvdw ayanam kaamabv vdwlo hv nyi am jwngkadaka la ridudw um Pwknvyarnv aya ngam kaatam la rimare; vbvritola aya ngv anyungjenga jwngkadaka nga rigum yadunv.
For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
14 Ngoogv ajin vdw, nonu nyigonv mindu nonu gvlo mvngjwng dunv vla mintola gwngnamsingnam go nonu gvlo kaatam mabolo vv alvnam vri? Hoogv mvngjwng namv ninyia ringla redw?
What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith, but has no works? Can faith save him?
15 Achiboru gonv majvka anyibormv gonv vji kosv go koopa manv okv dvnamtvngnam dvsvgo kaama nvgo dobolo.
And if a brother or sister is poorly clothed and may be lacking in daily food,
16 Nonuno bunua mvdurridur matola vbv mire, “Pwknvyarnv nonua boktalwkji laka! aw am hagurusuk bv dooladakla ka okv alvbv dvlatwnglaka!”—vla vbv mimbolo vv alv nvngvdw?
and one of you tells them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled;" and yet you did not give them the things the body needs, what good is it?
17 Vkvlvgabv mvngjwng mvngchikla: vv rimwng bolo, rinamgwngnam go dootak mabolo, vbvrikunamv sinamv.
Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.
18 Vbvritola nyigonv mire, “akonv mvngjwngla rinamv doodu, akonv gwngtamritam la rinamv doodu vnam sum” ngoogv mirwkdunv si, “gwngtamritam madula mvngjwng mvngchiknv yvvdw doodunv ngam kaatam laka. Ngo gvbv ngoogv mvngjwng sinama nonua ngo gwngtamritam nam lokv kaatamre.”
But someone will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without works, and I by my works will show you my faith.
19 Pwknvyarnv akin mvngchikgo doodunv vla nonuno mvngjwng dunvre? Alvdo! uyuvram vka mvngjwng dunv—okv busu dula hvkdwnsekyakdu.
You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe, and shudder.
20 Nonu nyiposoyo vdwv! Gwngtamritam namgo kaama tvla mvngjwng namv anyung kaama vla kaatam nwngdu nvre?
But do you want to know, foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless?
21 Ngonugv abuapa Abraham oguaingbv Pwknvyarnv gvlo tarwkbak bv doopvnv? Vv ninyigv kuunyilo akina Isaaknyi hv vdwlo Pwknvyarnv gvlo erinpeelwk jidubv yugwngmvrwng hoka jilwkla gwngtamritam nam lokv tarwkbaknam am paatoku.
Wasn't Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?
22 Nonu kaachin sila nyomare ai? Ninyigv mvngjwng vla okv ninyigv gwngtamritam namv lvkingobv karingsiching bv ridu; Ninyigv gwngnamrinam lokv ninyigv mvngjwng am rvbwngchwng modu.
You see that faith worked with his works, and by works faith was perfected;
23 Okv darwknv kitap gv vbvching minamv jvjvtoku, um minto, “Abraham Pwknvyarnvnyi mvngjwng rungto, okv vkvgv mvngjwng nam lvgabv Pwknvyarnv ninyia darwkchonjor nvgobv laarwk sitoku.” Okv vkvlvgabv Abrahamnyi Pwknvyarnv gv ajin gobv vdu kunv.
and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "And Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness;" and he was called the friend of God.
24 Vbvrikunamv, nonuno kaatoka, ngonugv vbv gwngnamrinam lokv um ngonu Pwknvyarnv gvlo tarwkbak bv dooladakla dunv, okv ngonugv mvngjwng mvngchiknam lokvma.
You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.
25 Yolaplapnv Rahap ka vbvching rito. Ninyigv gwngnamrinam lokv Pwknvyarnv gv tarwkbak dubv ritoku, ogulvgavbolo Israel nyimakmakru vdwa laarwk sila okv bunua mvdurridur gvdula lamtv kvvbi gulo kidu kubv kaatam jito.
In like manner was not Rahab the prostitute also justified by works, in that she received the messengers, and sent them out another way?
26 Holvgabv, adwnamar lo yalu kaama bolo sinam bv ridukunv oogv aingbv, mvngjwng namv ka gwngnamrinam go kaamabolo sinam bv riduku.
For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is dead.
