1James the servant of God, and of our Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
1NA lakobo, he kauwa na ke Akua, a me ka Haku o Iesu Kristo, i ka poe ohana he umi a me kumamalua i hoopuehuia, Aloha oukou.
2My brethren, count it all joy, when you shall fall into divers temptations;
2E na hoahanau o'u, e manao oukou, he mea olioli wale no, ke loohia oukou e kela mea keia mea e hoao mai ai;
3Knowing that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
3Ua ike no hoi oukou, o ka hoao ana mai i ko oukou manaoio, oia ka mea e mahuahua'i ke ahonui.
4And patience hath a perfect work; that you may be perfect and entire, failing in nothing.
4E hoomau oukou ma ka mea ku pono i ke ahonui, i lako oukou, a i hemolele hoi, aole wahi hemahema iki.
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.
5Ina i nele kekahi o oukou i ke akamai, e noi aku oia i ke Akua i ka mea i haawi lokomaikai mai no na mea a pau me ka hoino ole mai, a e haawiia mai no ia nona.
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.
6Aka, e noi aku oia me ka manaoio, aole me ke kanalua; no ka mea, o ka mea e kanalua ana, ua like no ia me ka ale o ke kai i puhiia e ka makani a kupikipikio.
7Therefore let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
7Mai manao ia kanaka, e loaa mai ia ia kekahi mea na ka Haku mai.
8A double minded man is inconstant in all his ways.
8O ke kanaka i lolelua ka naau, ua lauwili oia i kona mau aoao a pau.
9But let the brother of low condition glory in his exaltation:
9O ka hoahanau haahaa, e hauoli ia i kona hookiekieia.
10And the rich, in his being low; because as the flower of the grass shall he pass away.
10A o ka mea waiwai hoi, i kona hoohaahaaia; no ka mea, e like me ka pua o ka nahelehele e mae wale ana ia.
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.
11No ka mea, i ke kau ana mai o ka la me ka wela nui, aole emo a hoomaloo iho la no ia i ka nahelehele, a haule iho la kona pua, a pau ae la ka nani o kona ano: pela no e mae ai ka mea waiwai i kona aoao iho.
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.
12Pomaikai wale ke kanaka, ke ku paa ia i ka hoowalewaleia mai; no ka mea, a pau kona hoaoia mai, e loaa auanei ia ia ka lei o ke ola i oleloia mai ai e ka Haku no ka poe e aloha aku ana ia ia.
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.
13A o ka mea i hoowalewaleia mai, mai olelo ae ia, ua hoowalewaleia mai au e ke Akua; no ka mea, aole i hoowalewaleia ke Akua e ka hewa, aole loa hoi oia i hoowalewale mai i kekahi.
14But every man is tempted by his own concupiscence, being drawn away and allured.
14Aka, ua hoowalewaleia kela mea keia mea ma kona kuko iho no, i ke alakaiia'ku a puni ia.
15Then when concupiscence hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin. But sin, when it is completed, begetteth death.
15Aia hapai ke kuko, alaila, hanau mai ka hewa; a oo ka hewa, alaila, hoopukaia mai ka make.
16Do not err, therefore, my dearest brethren.
16Mai kuhihewa, e o'u poe hoahanau aloha:
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.
17O na haawina maikai a pau a me na makana hemolele a pau, noluna mai ia i iho mai ai no ka Makua mai o ka malamalama, aole ona ano hou, aole loa ia e luli iki.
18For of his own will hath he begotten us by the word of truth, that we might be some beginning of his creatures.
18No kona makemake iho i hoohanau mai ai oia ia kakou ma ka olelo oiaio, i lilo ae kakou i mau hua mua o ka poe ana i hana'i.
19You know, my dearest brethren. And let every man be swift to hear, but slow to speak, and slow to anger.
19No ia mea, e o'u poe hoahanau aloha, e hiki wawe oukou ma ka lohe, e akahele hoi ma ka olelo ana aku, a e hoolohi hoi ma ka inaina aku:
20For the anger of man worketh not the justice of God.
20No ka mea, o ka inaina o ke kanaka, aole ia e hana ana i ka pono o ke Akua.
21Wherefore casting away all uncleanness, and abundance of naughtiness, with meekness receive the ingrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
21No ia mea la, e pale aku oukou i ka haumia a pau, a me ka hu wale ana o ka ino, a e apo mai oukou me ke akahai i ka olelo i pakuiia, oia ka mea e hiki ai ke hoola i ko oukou poe uhane.
22But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
22E lilo hoi oukou i poe malama i ka olelo, aole i poe lohe wale no, e hoopunipuni ana ia oukou iho:
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.
23No ka mea, ina i lohe wale kekahi i ka olelo, aole oia i malama aku, ua like no ia me ke kanaka e nana ana i kona helehelena iho ma ke aniani;
24For he beheld himself, and went his way, and presently forgot what manner of man he was.
24Nana no oia ia ia iho, a i ka hoi ana'ku, poina koke iho no ia i kona ano iho.
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.
25O ka mea e nana ae i ke kanawai hemolele o ke ola, a e ku paa malaila, aole e hoopoina wale i kana mea i lohe ai, aka, ua malama no ia i ka oihana; oia ka mea e pomaikai aua i kana hana ana.
26And if any man think himself to be religious, not bridling his tongue, but deceiving his own heart, this man’s religion is vain.
26Ina i manaoia kekahi he haipule ia, aole hoi oia e kaulawaha i kona alelo, aka, e hoopunipuni i kona naau iho, ua lapuwale kona haipule ana.
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.
27O ka haipule io a me ka haumia ole imua i ke alo o ke Akua o ka Makua, eia no ia; e ike i ka poe makua ole, a me ka poe wahinekanemake i ko lakou wa e pihkia ai, a e malama hoi ia ia iho i haumia ole ia i ko ke ao nei.
