Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1James the servant of God, and of our Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
1Jakobus, Godaia ja Kaparaia Jesuni Christuni mili, mardu marapratjana ja mandruni piltjarani, mankini ngopera!
2My brethren, count it all joy, when you shall fall into divers temptations;
2Mankini pirna jenia ngundranau, ngakani ngatata wo rajai, jura wontjanani pilki ja pilkini purinani,
3Knowing that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
3Ngangau jura ngujamananto, jurani morlalu ngundranaia wontjani manju ngankai.
4And patience hath a perfect work; that you may be perfect and entire, failing in nothing.
4Manju ngankana manamirini wokarananto, ngangau jura manamiri ja talku ngamananto, ja wata poto kulnuni ngadaia nganananto.
5But if any of you want wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all men abundantly, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
5Kulno jurangundru ngadaia ngananani kirini, nau Godani ngatjinanto, Nulia pratjanani talku jinkiai, ja wata kulnuni tjakakai, ja Nulia jenia nunkangu jinkila nganai.
6But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea, which is moved and carried about by the wind.
6Nulu morlalu ngundranali ngatjiatimai mangangankani panieli; ngangau mangangankanietja panto pirnaia mandikila jeribaka nganai, nina watarali patijiritjibai ja njudakai.
7Therefore let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
7Jendralipara kanali wata ngundraiatimai, nulu minakulno Kaparandru manila nganai.
8A double minded man is inconstant in all his ways.
8Kana ngarapudlamandru maraltja nganai nunkani palto pratjanani.
9But let the brother of low condition glory in his exaltation:
9Ngatata waka jurakokateriatimai nunkani pirnali,
10And the rich, in his being low; because as the flower of the grass shall he pass away.
10Kana poto pirnanto nunkani wakali, ngangau nau kantaia tiwi jeribaka mudala nganai.
11For the sun rose with a burning heat, and parched the grass, and the flower thereof fell off, and the beauty of the shape thereof perished: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.
11Ngangau ditji dunkana warai ja bakana kalinguru, ja nulu kanta muja ngankana warai, ja nunkani tiwi purina warai, ja nunkani talka mudana warai; jeruja bakana kana poto pirnanto nunkani paltuni mujarila nganai.
12Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he hath been proved, he shall receive a crown of life, which God hath promised to them that love him.
12Murlali pirna naupini kana nganai, nau wontjanani manju nganai; ngangau nau matja wonki ngananani, nulu tepia pirapira manila nganai, ninaia Kaparali talpadakana wonti tanangu, tanali ninaia ngantjai.
13Let no man, when he is tempted, say that he is tempted by God. For God is not a tempter of evils, and he tempteth no man.
13Wata kulno jatajatanau, nau wontjanani nganai: Godali ngana wontjai. Ngangau Goda ngandandariai wontjanani wokarala madlentjaia, ja Nulia muntali wata kulno wontjai.
14But every man is tempted by his own concupiscence, being drawn away and allured.
14Kulno wontjanani wokarai, nina nunkani jertapaterina dunkalkanani ja karkarkanani.
15Then when concupiscence hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin. But sin, when it is completed, begetteth death.
15Ngadani, jertapaterina matja kantjirina, nulia madlentji dankai; ja madlentjali kantji mudanani, nulia nari dankai. (Dakani jaura Cantate ditjini.)
16Do not err, therefore, my dearest brethren.
16Wata tjautjau ngundranau, ngakani ngatata ngantjalu worajai.
17Every best gift, and every perfect gift, is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change, nor shadow of alteration.
17Jinkini poto ngumu pratjana, ja manamiri bakujeli jinkini poto pratjana mirindru wokarai, praitji worani Ngaperandru, nunkangu wata karitjini parai, ja wata pungala, nau karitjinandru wokarai.
18For of his own will hath he begotten us by the word of truth, that we might be some beginning of his creatures.
18Jertapaterinali nunkanali muntali Nulia ngaianana kantji patana wonti jaura morlalulali, ngangau ngaiana nunkani pantjimani potuja ngoperala nganananto.
19You know, my dearest brethren. And let every man be swift to hear, but slow to speak, and slow to anger.
19Ngujamanau, ngakani ngatata worajai: Kana pratjana nurujeli nganananto ngaranaia, mankali kaukaubanaia, mankali tiria;
20For the anger of man worketh not the justice of God.
20Ngangau kana kulnuja tiri wata Godaia talkula ngankingai.
21Wherefore casting away all uncleanness, and abundance of naughtiness, with meekness receive the ingrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
21Jendrangundruja murumuru pratjana ja tjilpi pratjana, tana tjikatjikandru punkai, woraranau, ja malti patanau ninapini jaura, ninaia Nulia jurangu kurana wonti, nauja ngurunguru nganai jurani mungara kulkala. (Dakani jaura Rogate ditjini.)
22But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
22Jauraia ngankanietja pantjianau, ja wata windri ngaranietja, jura munta jedibateriati.
23For if a man be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he shall be compared to a man beholding his own countenance in a glass.
23Ngangau kana kulno windri jauraia ngaranietja ngananani, ja wata ngankanietja, naupini kana kulnuni jeribaka nganai, nulu palku mudla nunkani milkitjerini najiteriai.
24For he beheld himself, and went his way, and presently forgot what manner of man he was.
24Ja nau matja najiterina, nau wapai, ja nurujeli nau kuritarai, worderu nau mudla.
25But he that hath looked into the perfect law of liberty, and hath continued therein, not becoming a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work; this man shall be blessed in his deed.
25Ja warle kurakani jirijiribani jaura manamirilani matja najina, ja nunkangu wonki nganai, ja warle wata windri kuritarani ngaranietja nganai, a‐ai, ngankanietja morlalu, naupini murlali pirna nganala nganai nunkani ngankanani.
26And if any man think himself to be religious, not bridling his tongue, but deceiving his own heart, this man’s religion is vain.
26Kulno ngundraterinani ngumu nganala, ja tali nunkani wata patai, a‐ai, ngara nunkani karkarkateriai, nunkani ngumula baku nganai.
27Religion clean and undefiled before God and the Father, is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their tribulation: and to keep one’s self unspotted from this world.
27Ngumula kulikiri ja murumuru pani Godani Ngaperani jenipara nganai: Ngamuru ja mangawaru tanani jeninani najila, ja munta mitalandru murumuru pani ngamalkaterila.
