Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
World English Bible
1Mai, jura kana poto pirnanto, jindranau ja maritjianau jurani wangiwangindru, nau jurangu wokarala nganai!
1Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming on you.
2Jurani poto pirna karumuru pantjina warai, ja jurani kati kakatjieli matja tajina.
2Your riches are corrupted and your garments are moth-eaten.
3Jurani mardatandra maralje ja mardatandra bulu karumuru pantjina warai, ja tanani karumuru jurangu malka nganala nganai, ja jurana turujeli jeribaka tajila nganai. Poto pirna jura kampana warai mudani ditjini.
3Your gold and your silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be for a testimony against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up your treasure in the last days.
4Mai, ngankanietjaia kalala, tanali jurani marundru jurani buka tandra kampana warai, tanani kalala jura mamana, maritjiai; ja wokaribanietjaia ngaiala Kaparani Zebaoth talpani wokarana warai.
4Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you have kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Armies.
5Jura mirantjati nganana warai, ja madlentji ngamana warai mitani, ja jurani ngara mani ngankana warai, nandrani ditjini jeribaka.
5You have lived in luxury on the earth, and taken your pleasure. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter.
6Jura kana talkuni kalala kurana warai ja naria nandrana warai, ja nulu jurana wata tjakakana warai.
6You have condemned and you have murdered the righteous one. He doesn’t resist you.
7Manjujeli kalkanau, ngatata worajai, Kapara tikanantulu! Mai, mitaia ngankanietjali mitaia tandra ngumuni kalkai, ja manju nganai, nulu woldra talara ja kilpa talara maninantulu.
7Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receives the early and late rain.
8Bakana jura manju kalkanau, ja ngara ngurunguru ngankaterianau, ngangau Kaparaia tikani karakara nganai!
8You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
9Wata ngara wordu ngankijiribamalianimai, ngatata worajai, jura kalala maniati! Mai, kalala kuranietja manani terkala wapaia.
9Don’t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you won’t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.
10Ketjaketjanaia ja manjuja malka Propheta worana najianau, tanali Kaparaia talani kaukaubana wonti.
10Take, brothers, for an example of suffering and of perseverance, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
11Mai, ngaiana tana jurakokai, tana wonki ngamana wonti. Hiobani manju jura ngarana warai, ja Kaparaia mudani jura najina wonti; ngangau Kapara murlali nganai ja kalumiltjamiltjariai.
11Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and have seen the Lord in the outcome, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
12Pratjanani ngopera, ngakani ngatata worajai, wata jaura morlalu kuranau, wata pariwilpani ja wata mitani, ja wata jaura morlalu pilki. Jurani kau nganananto kau, ja pani nganananto pani, ngangau jura kalalani puriati.
12But above all things, my brothers, don’t swear—not by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your “yes” be “yes”, and your “no”, “no”, so that you don’t fall into hypocrisy.
13Kulno jurangundru ketjaketjanani, nau ngatjiaiatimai; kulno murlali ngananani, nulu Psalma wonkaiatimai.
13Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises.
14Kulno jurangundru muntja ngananani, nulu mili wolaraia pinaru karkaiatimai, tana nunkangundru ngatjinanto, ja gildieli wiribananto Kaparaia talani.
14Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;
15Ja morlalu ngundranaia ngatjinali kana muntjani marangokala nganai, ja Kaparali nina terkibana tarala nganai, ja nulu madlentji matja ngankana, nulu kalingani manila nganai.
15and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
16Madlentji dikijiribamalianimai ja ngatjilkijiribamalianimai, jura tepi pantjinanto. Kana talkuja ngatjini ngurunguru nganai marapu ngankala.
16Confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.
17Elias kana nganana wonti ngaianangu jeribaka, ja nau ngatjini kulno ngatjina wonti, talara wata godananto; ja talara wata godana wonti mitani kilpawoldra parkulu ja pira mara wora ja kulno.
17Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain, and it didn’t rain on the earth for three years and six months.
18Ja nakaldra nau ngatjina wonti, ja pariwilpali talara jinkina wonti, ja mitali tandra punkibana wonti.
18He prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.
19Ngatata worajai, kulno jurangundru morlalundru tjiringanani, ja kulnujeli nina karitjimalkanani,
19Brothers, if any among you wanders from the truth and someone turns him back,
20Nau milkila nganananto, warle kana madlentji kulno nunkani tjiringani paltundru matja karitjimalkana, nulu mungara narindru kulkala nganai, ja madlentji marapu walpadakala nganai.
20let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.
