Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory with respect of persons.
1Ngakani ngatata worajai, wata ngundranau, morlalu ngundrana Jesungu Christungu pirnalaia Kaparani ngaiananani, kana mudla ngundrai.
2For if there shall come into your assembly a man having a golden ring, in fine apparel, and there shall come in also a poor man in mean attire,
2Jurani jurborinani kana kulno mara pirapiranto marda maraljandru matja widmana, ja kati ngumu, ja bakana kana wangiwangi kati murumurunto jurborinani;
3And you have respect to him that is clothed with the fine apparel, and shall say to him: Sit thou here well; but say to the poor man: Stand thou there, or sit under my footstool:
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.
4Do you not judge within yourselves, and are become judges of unjust thoughts?
4Wata jura jeruja munta pilki ja pilki ngankana warai, wata jura jeruja kalala kuranietja pantjina warai ngundrana madlentjali?
5Hearken, my dearest brethren: hath not God chosen the poor in this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which God hath promised to them that love him?
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?
6But you have dishonoured the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you by might? and do not they draw you before the judgment seats?
6Jura kana wangiwangi waka ngundrana warai. Wata kana poto pirna tanapara nganai, tanali jurana nankai, wata tanali jurana kalala piria parumai?
7Do not they blaspheme the good name that is invoked upon you?
7Wata tanali tanana nganai, tanali tala ngumu ngirkibai, nunkanali jurana matja dikana?
8If then you fulfill the royal law, according to the scriptures, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself; you do well.
8Jura kantji Kaparaia jirijiribani jaurani pankinani, dakani jaura worangundru: Ngurala jinkani ngantjamai jidna munta jeribaka, jeruja jura ngumu ngankai.
9But if you have respect to persons, you commit sin, being reproved by the law as transgressors.
9Jura kana mudla ngundranani, jeruja jura madlentji ngankai, ja jirijiribani jaurali jurana dankaranietja dikai.
10And whosoever shall keep the whole law, but offend in one point, is become guilty of all.
10Ngangau warle jirijiribani jaura pratjana ngamalkai, ja windri buru kulnuni dankarai, nau pratjanani wilpa nganai.
11For he that said, Thou shalt not commit adultery, said also, Thou shalt not kill. Now if thou do not commit adultery, but shalt kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
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.
12So speak ye, and so do, as being to be judged by the law of liberty.
12Jeruja jatanau, ja jeruja ngankanau, jenipara jeribaka, tana kurakani jirijiribani jauraia kalala manila nganai.
13For judgment without mercy to him that hath not done mercy. And mercy exalteth itself above judgment.
13Ngangau kalala kalumiltjamiltjarina pani ngamalkai nunkangu, nau wata kalumiltjamiltjariai; kalumiltjamiltjarini jurakokateriai kalalani.
14What shall it profit, my brethren, if a man say he hath faith, but hath not works? Shall faith be able to save him?
14Mina jenia ngumu nganai, ngakani ngatata worajai, kulno jatanani; Ngato morlalu ngundrana ngamalkai, ja nulu wata ngankana ngamalkanani? Morlalu ngundranali ngandandariai nina kulkala?
15And if a brother or sister be naked, and want daily food:
15Ngatata kara, kaku kara, balu ngamanani, ja ditjia buka pani ngamalkanani,
16And one of you say to them: Go in peace, be ye warmed and filled; yet give them not those things that are necessary for the body, what shall it profit?
16Kulno jurangundru tanangu jatanani: Murlani wapanau, talpianau ja jerturianau; ja jura tanangu wata palkuja tajini jinkinani, mina jenia marangokai?
17So faith also, if it have not works, is dead in itself.
17Jeruja bakana morlalu ngundrana, nulia wata ngankana ngamalkanani, nauja munta nari nganai.
18But some man will say: Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without works; and I will shew thee, by works, my faith.
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.
19Thou believest that there is one God. Thou dost well: the devils also believe and tremble.
19Jundru morlalu ngundrai Goda Kulno nganai, jundru talku ngankai, kutji worali bakana jenia morlalu ngundrai ja ngarrai.
20But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
20Jundru ngantjai ngujamala, kana mara kalajai, morlalu ngundrana ngankana panini nari nganai?
21Was not Abraham our father justified by works, offering up Isaac his son upon the altar?
21Wata Abraham ngaperi ngaianani ngankanandru talku pantjina wonti, nulu jendranguta Isaak ngatamura nunkani Altarani jinkina wonti?
22Seest thou, that faith did co-operate with his works; and by works faith was made perfect?
22Ninkida jundru najiai, morlalu ngundranali nunkani ngankanani marangokana wonti, ja ngankanali morlalu ngundrana manamiri pantjina wonti.
23And the scripture was fulfilled, saying: Abraham believed God, and it was reputed to him to justice, and he was called the friend of God.
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.
24Do you see that by works a man is justified; and not by faith only?
24Jura najiai, kana ngankanandru talku pantjiai, ja wata windri morlalu ngundranandru kulnulu.
25And in like manner also Rahab the harlot, was not she justified by works, receiving the messengers, and sending them out another way?
25Jeruja bakana palakantji widla Rahab, wata nani ngankanandru talku pantjina wonti, nandru najinajibanietja pungani patana wonti, ja tanana palto pilkini nakaldra jinpana wonti?
26For even as the body without the spirit is dead; so also faith without works is dead.
26Worderu palku jaola panini nari nganai, jeruja bakana morlalu ngundrana, ngankana panini nari nganai.
