Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
Berean Standard Bible
1Ngakani ngatata worajai, wata ngundranau, morlalu ngundrana Jesungu Christungu pirnalaia Kaparani ngaiananani, kana mudla ngundrai.
1My brothers, as you hold out your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ, do not show favoritism.
2Jurani jurborinani kana kulno mara pirapiranto marda maraljandru matja widmana, ja kati ngumu, ja bakana kana wangiwangi kati murumurunto jurborinani;
2Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes, and a poor man in shabby clothes also comes in.
3Ja jura nina ngundranani, nulu kati ngumu ngamalkai, ja nunkangu jatanani: Ninkida ngumu ngamana ngariau; ja jura kana wangiwangini jatanani: Jerra terkamai kara, ngakani tidnaparani piria ngalpani ngamana ngariau kara.
3If you lavish attention on the man in fine clothes and say, “Here is a seat of honor,” but say to the poor man, “You must stand” or “Sit at my feet,”
4Wata jura jeruja munta pilki ja pilki ngankana warai, wata jura jeruja kalala kuranietja pantjina warai ngundrana madlentjali?
4have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?
5Ngaranau, ngakani ngatata ngantjalu: Wata Godali tanana kalkalkanala, tana wangiwangi nganai mitani, tana kana poto pirnanto nganananto morlalu ngundranani, ja mililaia maratunka maninietja, ninaia Nulia tanangu talpadakana wonti, tanali ninaia ngantjai?
5Listen, my beloved brothers: Has not God chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom He promised those who love Him?
6Jura kana wangiwangi waka ngundrana warai. Wata kana poto pirna tanapara nganai, tanali jurana nankai, wata tanali jurana kalala piria parumai?
6But you have dishonored the poor. Is it not the rich who oppress you and drag you into court?
7Wata tanali tanana nganai, tanali tala ngumu ngirkibai, nunkanali jurana matja dikana?
7Are they not the ones who blaspheme the noble name by which you have been called?
8Jura kantji Kaparaia jirijiribani jaurani pankinani, dakani jaura worangundru: Ngurala jinkani ngantjamai jidna munta jeribaka, jeruja jura ngumu ngankai.
8If you really fulfill the royal law stated in Scripture, “Love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing well.
9Jura kana mudla ngundranani, jeruja jura madlentji ngankai, ja jirijiribani jaurali jurana dankaranietja dikai.
9But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
10Ngangau warle jirijiribani jaura pratjana ngamalkai, ja windri buru kulnuni dankarai, nau pratjanani wilpa nganai.
10Whoever keeps the whole law but stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.
11Ngangau Naupini, Nauja jatana wonti: „Wata pinta wokaribamai,“ bakana jatana wonti: „Wata naria nandramai.“ Jidni wata pinta wokaribanani, windri jundru naria nandranani, jeruja jidni jirijiribani jauraia dankaranietja pantjina warai.
11For He who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not murder.” If you do not commit adultery, but do commit murder, you have become a lawbreaker.
12Jeruja jatanau, ja jeruja ngankanau, jenipara jeribaka, tana kurakani jirijiribani jauraia kalala manila nganai.
12Speak and act as those who are going to be judged by the law that gives freedom.
13Ngangau kalala kalumiltjamiltjarina pani ngamalkai nunkangu, nau wata kalumiltjamiltjariai; kalumiltjamiltjarini jurakokateriai kalalani.
13For judgment without mercy will be shown to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
14Mina jenia ngumu nganai, ngakani ngatata worajai, kulno jatanani; Ngato morlalu ngundrana ngamalkai, ja nulu wata ngankana ngamalkanani? Morlalu ngundranali ngandandariai nina kulkala?
14What good is it, my brothers, if someone claims to have faith, but has no deeds? Can such faith save him?
15Ngatata kara, kaku kara, balu ngamanani, ja ditjia buka pani ngamalkanani,
15Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food.
16Kulno jurangundru tanangu jatanani: Murlani wapanau, talpianau ja jerturianau; ja jura tanangu wata palkuja tajini jinkinani, mina jenia marangokai?
16If one of you tells him, “Go in peace; stay warm and well fed,” but does not provide for his physical needs, what good is that?
17Jeruja bakana morlalu ngundrana, nulia wata ngankana ngamalkanani, nauja munta nari nganai.
17So too, faith by itself, if it does not result in action, is dead.
18Kulno jatala nganai kara: Jundru morlalu ngundrana ngamalkai, ja ngato ngankana ngamalkai. Jinkani morlalu ngundrana ngakangu wondramai ngankana panini, jeruja ngato jinkangu ngakani ngankanandru morlalu ngundrana wondrala nganai.
18But someone will say, “You have faith and I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.
19Jundru morlalu ngundrai Goda Kulno nganai, jundru talku ngankai, kutji worali bakana jenia morlalu ngundrai ja ngarrai.
19You believe that God is one. Good for you! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.
20Jundru ngantjai ngujamala, kana mara kalajai, morlalu ngundrana ngankana panini nari nganai?
20O foolish man, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is worthless?
21Wata Abraham ngaperi ngaianani ngankanandru talku pantjina wonti, nulu jendranguta Isaak ngatamura nunkani Altarani jinkina wonti?
21Was not our father Abraham justified by what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar?
22Ninkida jundru najiai, morlalu ngundranali nunkani ngankanani marangokana wonti, ja ngankanali morlalu ngundrana manamiri pantjina wonti.
22You see that his faith was working with his actions, and his faith was perfected by what he did.
23Ja jeruja jaura morlalu pantjina wonti, nauja jatai: „Abrahamali Godangu morlalu ngundrana wonti, ja Nulia jenia nunkani talkulani ngokana wonti,“ ja tanali nina Godaia kamaneli dikana wonti.
23And the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called a friend of God.
24Jura najiai, kana ngankanandru talku pantjiai, ja wata windri morlalu ngundranandru kulnulu.
24As you can see, a man is justified by his deeds and not by faith alone.
25Jeruja bakana palakantji widla Rahab, wata nani ngankanandru talku pantjina wonti, nandru najinajibanietja pungani patana wonti, ja tanana palto pilkini nakaldra jinpana wonti?
25In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute justified by her actions when she welcomed the spies and sent them off on another route?
26Worderu palku jaola panini nari nganai, jeruja bakana morlalu ngundrana, ngankana panini nari nganai.
26As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.
