雅各書 5
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1嗐！你們這些富足人哪，應當哭泣、號咷，因為將有苦難臨到你們身上。
1Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl in your miseries, which shall come upon you.
2你們的財物壞了，衣服也被蟲子咬了。
2Your riches are corrupted: and your garments are motheaten.
3你們的金銀都長了銹；那銹要證明你們的不是，又要吃你們的肉，如同火燒。你們在這末世只知積攢錢財。
3Your gold and silver is cankered: and the rust of them shall be for a testimony against you, and shall eat your flesh like fire. You have stored up to yourselves wrath against the last days.
4工人給你們收割莊稼，你們虧欠他們的工錢，這工錢有聲音呼叫，並且那收割之人的冤聲已經入了萬軍之主的耳了。
4Behold the hire of the labourers, who have reaped down your fields, which by fraud has been kept back by you, crieth: and the cry of them hath entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.
5你們在世上享美福，好宴樂，當宰殺的日子竟嬌養你們的心。
5You have feasted upon earth: and in riotousness you have nourished your hearts, in the day of slaughter.
6你們定了義人的罪，把他殺害，他也不抵擋你們。
6You have condemned and put to death the Just One, and he resisted you not.
7弟兄們哪，你們要忍耐，直到主來。看哪，農夫忍耐等候地裏寶貴的出產，直到得了秋雨春雨。
7Be patient therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth: patiently bearing till he receive the early and latter rain.
8你們也當忍耐，堅固你們的心，因為主來的日子近了。
8Be you therefore also patient, and strengthen your hearts: for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
9弟兄們，你們不要彼此埋怨，免得受審判。看哪，審判的 主 站在門前了。
9Grudge not, brethren, one against another, that you may not be judged. Behold the judge standeth before the door.
10弟兄們，你們要把那先前奉主名說話的眾先知當作能受苦能忍耐的榜樣。
10Take, my brethren, for an example of suffering evil, of labour and patience, the prophets, who spoke in the name of the Lord.
11那先前忍耐的人，我們稱他們是有福的。你們聽見過 約伯 的忍耐，也知道主 給他 的結局，明顯主是滿心憐憫，大有慈悲。
11Behold, we account them blessed who have endured. You have heard of the patience of Job, and you have seen the end of the Lord, that the Lord is merciful and compassionate.
12我的弟兄們，最要緊的是不可起誓；不可指着天起誓，也不可指着地起誓，無論何誓都不可起。你們說話，是，就說是；不是，就說不是，免得你們落在審判之下。
12But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath. But let your speech be, yea, yea: no, no: that you fall not under judgment.
13你們中間有受苦的呢，他就該禱告；有喜樂的呢，他就該歌頌。
13Is any of you sad? Let him pray. Is he cheerful in mind? Let him sing.
14你們中間有病了的呢，他就該請教會的長老來；他們可以奉主的名用油抹他，為他禱告。
14Is any man sick among you? Let him bring in the priests of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.
15出於信心的祈禱要救那病人，主必叫他起來；他若犯了罪，也必蒙赦免。
15And the prayer of faith shall save the sick man: and the Lord shall raise him up: and if he be in sins, they shall be forgiven him.
16所以你們要彼此認罪，互相代求，使你們可以得醫治。義人祈禱所發的力量是大有功效的。
16Confess therefore your sins one to another: and pray one for another, that you may be saved. For the continual prayer of a just man availeth much.
17以利亞 與我們是一樣性情的人，他懇切禱告，求不要下雨，雨就三年零六個月不下在地上。
17Elias was a man passible like unto us: and with prayer he prayed that it might not rain upon the earth, and it rained not for three years and six months.
18他又禱告，天就降下雨來，地也生出土產。
18And he prayed again: and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.
19我的弟兄們，你們中間若有失迷真道的，有人使他回轉，
19My brethren, if any of you err from the truth, and one convert him:
20這人該知道：叫一個罪人從迷路上轉回便是救一個靈魂不死，並且遮蓋許多的罪。
20He must know that he who causeth a sinner to be converted from the error of his way, shall save his soul from death, and shall cover a multitude of sins.
