1James the servant of God, and of our Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
1Ma sel James, sie mwet kulansap lun God ac lun Leum Jesus Christ: Paing mwet lun God nukewa su fahsrelik fin faclu nufon.
2My brethren, count it all joy, when you shall fall into divers temptations;
2Mwet lulalfongi wiuk, ke kain in mwe srike puspis sun kowos, kowos in oakla mu ma inge mwe insewowo nu suwos,
3Knowing that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
3tuh kowos etu lah ke pacl se lulalfongi lowos kutangla fin mwe srike inge, saflaiya muteng lowos uh yokelik.
4And patience hath a perfect work; that you may be perfect and entire, failing in nothing.
4Kowos in sruokyana muteng lowos nwe ke safla, in tia munasla, tuh kowos in suwohs ac fal in ouiya nukewa, ac wangin ma kowos sufalla kac.
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.
5Tusruktu kutena suwos fin enenu in akyokye lalmwetmet lal, enenu elan pre nu sin God, su ac fah sang nu sel; mweyen God El tia srowohsr a El insewowo in sang yohk nu sin mwet nukewa.
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.
6Ac ke pacl kowos pre, kowos enenu in lulalfongi ac in tia alolo. Elos su alolo elos oana noa in meoa su tuhyak ac eng uh pahlela.
7Therefore let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
7Mwet ouinge in tia nunku mu elos ac eis kutena ma sin Leum.
8A double minded man is inconstant in all his ways.
8Elos tafu luo in nunak lalos, ac seokak in ma nukewa.
9But let the brother of low condition glory in his exaltation:
9Sie mwet Christian su sukasrup enenu in engan lah God El akfulatyalak,
10And the rich, in his being low; because as the flower of the grass shall he pass away.
10ac mwet Christian se su kasrup el enenu pac in engan lah God El ac akpusiselyal. Tuh mwe kasrup lal uh ac fah wanginla oana sie ros inima uh.
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.
11Fulen faht uh ke ac takak ac fulokla mah inima uh, na ros kac uh ac putatla ac wanginla katoiya. In lumah sacna, mwet kasrup se ac fah mwella ke el forfor ac oru orekma lal.
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.
12Insewowo mwet se su oaru na ke pacl srikeyuk el, tuh ke pacl se el kutangla ma upa inge, God El ac fah sang nu sel tefuro lun moul, tuh pa inge ma God El wuleang nu selos su lungse El.
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.
13Mwet se fin srifeyuk, elan tia fahk, “Mwe sruhf se inge ma sin God me,” tuh God El tia srifeyuk ke ma koluk, ac El tia pac srife mwet uh.
14But every man is tempted by his own concupiscence, being drawn away and allured.
14A mwet se el srifeyuk ke sripen lungse lal sifacna, su amakunulla nu ke ma koluk ac el sruhfla.
15Then when concupiscence hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin. But sin, when it is completed, begetteth death.
15Ac ke kena koluk lal kui in el, ac oswela ma koluk lulap; ac ke ma koluk inge yokelikna, ac kololla nu ke misa.
16Do not err, therefore, my dearest brethren.
16Mwet kawuk saok luk, kowos in tia kiapweyukla!
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.
17Mwe kite wo ac fal nukewa, tuku lucng me; ma inge tuku sin God me su orala kalem nukewa inkusrao, ac su tiana ekyek pwanang lohsr uh tiana sikyak.
18For of his own will hath he begotten us by the word of truth, that we might be some beginning of his creatures.
18Ke lungse lal sifacna El oswekutla ac ase moul nu sesr ke kas pwaye lal, tuh kut fah oana fahko se meet inmasrlon ma orekla lal nukewa.
19You know, my dearest brethren. And let every man be swift to hear, but slow to speak, and slow to anger.
19Mwet kawuk saok luk, esam ma se inge! Mwet nukewa enenu in sa lohng, a tia sa in kaskas, ac tia pac sa in kasrkusrakak.
20For the anger of man worketh not the justice of God.
20Mweyen ke mwet uh kasrkusrak, elos tia ku in orala sripa suwoswos lun God.
21Wherefore casting away all uncleanness, and abundance of naughtiness, with meekness receive the ingrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
21Ke ma inge, sisla elah fohkfok nukewa ac orekma koluk nukewa. Ac kowos in akpusiselye kowos nu sin God, ac eis kas ma El oakiya insiowos, su ac ku in molikowosla.
22But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
22Kowos in oru oana ma kas lun God uh fahk, ac tia lohng mukena; tuh kowos fin lohng ac tia oru, kowos sifacna kiapwekowos.
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.
23Kutena mwet su lohng na kas ac tia moulkin, el oana mwet se ma ngetang ac liye lumahl in selngun uh.
24For he beheld himself, and went his way, and presently forgot what manner of man he was.
24Tukun el liye tari, el ac som ac sa na mulkunla lah fuka lumahl.
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.
25Kutena mwet su arulana lohang nu ke ma sap wowo su aksukosokye mwet uh, ac el kwafeang in nunku na kac, ac el tia lohng mukena ac mulkunla, a el orekmakin — mwet ouinge uh God El ac fah akinsewowoye in ma el oru.
26And if any man think himself to be religious, not bridling his tongue, but deceiving his own heart, this man’s religion is vain.
26Ya oasr mwet nunku mu el akfalye oakwuk lun alu uh? El fin tia karingin lohul, ac wangin sripen alu lal ac el sifacna kiapwella.
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.
27Alu pwaye ac nasnas ye mutun God Papa pa inge: in karinganang tulik mukaimtal ac katinmas su muta in ongoiya, ac sifacna liyaung tuh ma koluk lun faclu in tia akfohkfokye kom.
