Yakobo 2
1 Me nuanom, sɛ moyɛ agyidifoɔ wɔ Awurade Kristo animuonyam mu yi, monnyɛ animhwɛ.
ʻE hoku kāinga, ʻoua naʻa mou maʻu ʻi he filifilimānako ki he kakai, ʻae tui ʻa hotau ʻEiki nāunauʻia ko Sisu Kalaisi.
2 Sɛ mohyia a, ɔdefoɔ a ɔhyɛ mpɛtea ne ntade pa ne ohiani bi nso a ɔhyɛ ntadego nso tumi ba bi.
He kapau ʻe hū mai ki homou falelotu ha taha ʻoku ai ha mama koula ʻi hono nima, pea ai mo e kofu lelei, pea hū mai foki mo ha taha masiva mo e kofu kovi;
3 Sɛ wode anidie ma deɛ wasiesie ne ho yie no, na woka kyerɛ no sɛ, “Tena saa akonnwa pa yi so,” na woka kyerɛ ohiani no nso sɛ, “Sɔre gyina hɔ anaa tena fam wɔ me nan ase ha” a,
Pea mou tokangaʻi ia ʻoku ne ʻai ʻae kofu lelei, mo pehē kiate ia, “Nofo koe ki heni ʻi he potu lelei;” kae pehē ki he masiva, “Tuʻu koe ki hena,” pe, “Nofo heni ʻi lalo hoku tuʻungavaʻe:”
4 wodi fɔ sɛ wogyina atemmuo a ɛfiri adwemmɔne mu de nyiyimu abɛto mo mu no ho.
ʻIkai ʻoku mou filifilimānako ʻiate kimoutolu, pea hoko ai ko e kau fakamaau mahalo kovi?
5 Me nuanom adɔfoɔ, montie! Onyankopɔn yii ewiase yi mu ahiafoɔ sɛ wɔnyɛ adefoɔ wɔ gyidie mu na wɔanya ahennie a ɔhyɛɛ wɔn a wɔdɔ no no ho bɔ no.
Fanongo, ʻe hoku kāinga ʻofeina, ʻIkai kuo fili ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae masiva ʻoe māmani ke koloaʻia ʻi he tui, pea ko e kau hoko ki he puleʻanga ʻaia kuo ne talaʻofa ki ai kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻofa kiate ia?
6 Nanso, moammu ahiafoɔ! Ɛhefoɔ na wɔdi mo nya twe mo kɔ atemmufoɔ anim? Adefoɔ!
Ka kuo mou fakamamahiʻi ʻae masiva. ʻIkai ʻoku fakamālohiʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe he kakai koloaʻia, pea fetoho ʻakimoutolu ki he ngaahi fakamaauʻanga?
7 Wɔne nnipa a wɔkasa tia din pa a wɔde ama mo no.
ʻIkai ʻoku nau lauʻikovi ʻae huafa lelei ko ia, ʻaia kuo ui ʻaki ʻakimoutolu?
8 Ɛyɛ sɛ modi yɛn Awurade mmara a ɛka sɛ, “Dɔ wo yɔnko sɛ wo ho” no so.
Ko eni, kapau te mou fakamoʻoni ki he fono fakaʻeiki, ʻo fakatatau ki he tohi, “Ke ke ʻofa ki ho kaungāʻapi ʻo hangē pe ko koe,” ʻoku mou fai lelei ai:
9 Na sɛ mohwɛ nnipa anim de gye wɔn a, modi ho fɔ na Mmara no tia mo sɛ mmaratofoɔ.
Ka ʻoka mou ka filifilimānako ki he kakai, ʻoku mou fai angahala ai, pea ʻoku fakahalaia ʻakimoutolu ʻe he fono ko e kau talangataʻa.
10 Obiara a ɔbu mmara no mu baako pɛ so no bu ne nyinaa so.
He ko ia te ne fai kotoa pē ʻae fono, kae hala ʻi hono meʻa ʻe taha, ʻoku halaia ia ʻi hono meʻa kotoa pē.
11 Ɛfiri sɛ, deɛ ɔkaa sɛ, “Nsɛe awadeɛ” no, ɔno ara nso na ɔkaa sɛ, “Nni awu.” Na sɛ woansɛe awadeɛ na wodi awu a, woabu mmara so.
He ko ia ia naʻe pehē, “ʻOua naʻa ke tono fefine,” naʻe pehē foki ʻe ia, “ʻOua naʻa ke fakapō.” Ko eni, kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke tono fefine, ka ke fakapō, kuo ke hoko ko e maumau fono.
12 Sɛ woyɛ Kristo apɛdeɛ o, sɛ woanyɛ nʼapɛdeɛ o, wobɛbu wo ho atɛn. Enti hwɛ asɛm a woka ne deɛ woyɛ biara yie.
Ke pehē pe hoʻomou lea, pea pehē mo hoʻomou ngāue, ʻo taau mo kinautolu ʻe fakamaau ʻaki ʻae fono ʻoe tauʻatāina.
13 Ɛfiri sɛ, obi a wanhunu mmɔbɔ no, Onyankopɔn atemmuo mu no, wɔrenhunu no mmɔbɔ. Nanso atemmuo mu mpo no, Onyankopɔn hunu mmɔbɔ.
He ko ia naʻe ʻikai ke fakahā ʻae ʻofa, ʻe maʻu ʻe ia ʻae fakamaau taʻehaʻofa; pea ʻoku fiefia ʻae ʻofa ki he fakamaau.
14 Me nuanom, sɛ obi ka sɛ, “Mewɔ gyidie” na ɔnni gyidie no ho dwuma a, mfasoɔ bɛn na ɛwɔ soɔ? Saa gyidie no bɛtumi agye no nkwa anaa?
ʻE hoku kāinga, neongo ʻoku pehē ʻe ha taha ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻae tui, ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻi ai mo e ngaahi ngāue, ko e hā hono ʻaonga? ʻE fakamoʻui ia ʻe he tui [pe]?
15 Sɛ anuanom bi wɔ hɔ a ntoma ho hia wɔn na wɔnni aduane dodoɔ nso a wɔbɛdi,
Kapau ʻe telefua pea fiekaia ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ha tokoua pe ko e tuofefine,
16 sɛ wokɔka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, “Onyame nhyira mo! Mo ho nyɛ mo hye na monnidi yie” na sɛ woamma wɔn asetena yi mu deɛ ɛhia wɔn a, papa bɛn na woayɛ wɔn?
Pea pehē ʻe homou tokotaha ki ai, “ʻAlu ʻo ke fiemālie, pea ke mafana, pea ke mākona:” kae ʻikai siʻi te mou ʻatu ki ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ʻaonga ki he sino; ko e hā hono ʻaonga?
17 Saa ara na gyidie teɛ. Sɛ nneyɛeɛ nka ho a, na awu.
ʻOku pehē foki ʻae tui, kapau ʻoku ʻikai ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi ngāue, ʻoku mate ia, pea ʻoku tuʻu taha pe ia.
18 Nanso, obi bɛtumi aka sɛ, “Obi wɔ gyidie na afoforɔ nso wɔ nneyɛeɛ.” Me mmuaeɛ ne sɛ, “Kyerɛ me sɛdeɛ obi tumi nya gyidie a nneyɛeɛ mmata ho ase. Me deɛ menam me nneyɛeɛ so bɛkyerɛ wo me gyidie.”
ʻIo, ʻe pehē nai ʻe ha taha, “ʻOku ʻiate au ʻae ngaahi ngāue: fakahā mai kiate au hoʻo tui taʻehanongaahingāue, pea te u fakahā kiate koe ʻa ʻeku tui ʻaki ʻeku ngaahi ngāue.”
19 Wogye di sɛ Onyankopɔn baako pɛ na ɔwɔ hɔ? Ɛyɛ! Ahonhommɔne nso gye di saa ara na wɔn ho popo wɔ suro mu.
ʻOku ke tui ʻoku ai ʻae ʻOtua pe taha; ko hoʻo fai lelei ia: ʻoku tui foki ʻae kau tēvolo, pea nau tetetete.
20 Ɔkwasea! Wopɛ sɛ wɔka kyerɛ wo sɛ gyidie a nneyɛeɛ mmata ho no ho nni mfasoɔ anaa?
Ka ʻoku ke loto ke ke ʻilo, ʻe tangata vale, ko e tui taʻeʻiai ʻae ngaahi ngāue, ʻoku mate ia?
21 Ɛyɛɛ dɛn na Onyankopɔn buu Abraham bem? Ɛnam ne nneyɛeɛ so sɛ ɔde ne ba Isak maa wɔ afɔrebukyia so no.
ʻIkai naʻe fakatonuhiaʻi ʻe he ngaahi ngāue ʻa ʻetau tamai ko ʻEpalahame, ʻi heʻene ʻohake ʻa ʻAisake ko hono foha ʻi he funga ʻesifeilaulau?
22 Wohunu sɛ ne gyidie ne ne nneyɛeɛ nyinaa redi dwuma na ne nneyɛeɛ no maa ne gyidie no dii mu.
ʻOku ke mamata ki he ngāue ʻoe tui ʻi heʻene ngaahi ngāue, pea naʻe fakahaohaoa ʻae tui ʻe he ngaahi ngāue?
23 Na Atwerɛsɛm no baa mu sɛ, Abraham gyee Onyankopɔn diiɛ na ɛsiane ne gyidie no enti, Onyankopɔn gyee no sɛ ɔteneneeni. Enti wɔfrɛ Abraham Onyankopɔn adamfo.
Pea naʻe fakamoʻoni ʻae tohi ʻaia ʻoku pehē, Na’e tui’a’Epalahame ki he’Otua, pea na’e lau ia kiate ia ko e mā’oni’oni: pea naʻe ui ia ko e Kāinga ʻoe ʻOtua.
24 Yei da no adi pefee sɛ Onyankopɔn nam onipa nneyɛeɛ so na ɔbu no bem, na ɛnnam ne gyidie nko so.
Ko eni, ʻoku mou mamata ʻoku fakatonuhia ʻae tangata ʻe he ngaahi ngāue, kae ʻikai ʻi he tui pe.
25 Saa ara na ɛte wɔ adwaman Rahab ho. Ne nneyɛeɛ maa Onyankopɔn buu no bem, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔgyee Yudafoɔ bi a wɔsomaa wɔn, boaa wɔn ma wɔdwane faa ɛkwan foforɔ bi so.
ʻIkai naʻe fakatonuhia pehē foki ʻa Lehapi ko e fefine feʻauaki ʻe he ngaahi ngāue, ʻi heʻene tali pea ne fekau ʻae kau mataki ʻi he hala kehe?
26 Sɛdeɛ onipadua a honhom nni mu awuo no, saa ara nso na gyidie a nneyɛeɛ mmata ho no nso awuo.
He ʻoku hangē ʻoku mate ʻae sino taʻeʻiai ʻae laumālie, ʻoku pehē ʻae tui taʻeʻiai-ʻae-ngaahi-ngāue, ʻoku mate foki ia.
