Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Be ye not many masters, my brethren, knowing that you receive the greater judgment.
1Mwet lulalfongi wiuk, in tia pus suwos weang mwet luti, tuh kowos etu lah kut mwet luti uh fah nununkeyuk upa liki mwet ngia.
2For in many things we all offend. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man. He is able also with a bridle to lead about the whole body.
2Kut nukewa tafongla pacl puspis. Tusruktu fin oasr mwet tia tafongla ke kas lal, el sie mwet suwohs su ku in leumi manol nufon.
3For if we put bits into the mouths of horses, that they may obey us, and we turn about their whole body.
3Kut kapriya mwe kuhf se nu in oalin horse uh in sang kifasul elan akos kut ac fahsr nu yen kut lungse fahsr nu we.
4Behold also ships, whereas they are great, and are driven by strong winds, yet are they turned about with a small helm, whithersoever the force of the governor willeth.
4Nunku pac ke oak nes lulap uh, finne yohk ac el kasrusr ke eng upa uh, ac ku in kifusyuk ke kitin ikwik na srisrik, ac ku in kasrusr nu kutena acn ma captain el lungse in som nu we.
5Even so the tongue is indeed a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold how small a fire kindleth a great wood.
5Ouinge loh uh: ma na srisrik se, a el ku in konkin ke ma lulap. Nunku ke insak na lulap se ac ku in firirla ke kitin firir na srisrik!
6And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is placed among our members, which defileth the whole body, and inflameth the wheel of our nativity, being set on fire by hell.
6Ac loh uh el oana sie e. El oana sie faclu ma sessesla ke ma sutuu, su oan in manosr ac osralik ma koluk in manosr nufon. El ku in furreak moul lasr nufon ke sie e na ngeng ma tuku in hell me.
7For every nature of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of the rest, is tamed, and hath been tamed, by the nature of man:
7Ku in akmunayeyuk kain in kosro nukewa, ac mwet uh akmunaye tari kosro lemnak ac won, ma orakrak ac ik.
8But the tongue no man can tame, an unquiet evil, full of deadly poison.
8Tusruktu soenna oasr sie mwet ku in akmunaye loh uh — ma na koluk se ac koflana kifusyukla, sessesla ke pwasin in misa.
9By it we bless God and the Father: and by it we curse men, who are made after the likeness of God.
9Kut orekmakin loh uh in sang kulo nu sin Leum ac Papa tumasr, ac oayapa in selngawi mwet wiasr, su orekla in lemluman God.
10Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
10Kas in sang kulo ac kas in selnga tukeni illa liki oalu sefanna. Mwet wiuk, tiana wo in ouinge!
11Doth a fountain send forth, out of the same hole, sweet and bitter water?
11Kof loslos ac kof taek tia ku in tukeni sororme liki unon in kof sefanna.
12Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear grapes; or the vine, figs? So neither can the salt water yield sweet.
12Mwet lulalfongi wiuk, sak fig soko tia ku in fokla tuh olive pa fahko, ac oa in grape tia ku in fokla tuh fig pa fahko uh. Unon in kof kifinte tia ku in use kofonot.
13Who is a wise man, and endued with knowledge among you? Let him shew, by a good conversation, his work in the meekness of wisdom.
13Ya oasr sie inmasrlowos su oasr etauk ac lalmwetmet yoro? Elan akpwayei ke moul wo lal, ac ke orekma wo el orala ke inse pusisel ac lalmwetmet.
14But if you have bitter zeal, and there be contentions in your hearts; glory not, and be not liars against the truth.
14Tusruktu insiom fin sessesla ke sok, srunga, ac nunku kac sifacna, nik kom orekma koluk in kisrung ma pwaye ke kom konkin lalmwetmet lom.
15For this is not wisdom, descending from above: but earthly, sensual, devilish.
15Lalmwetmet ouinge tia ma tuku lucng me, a ma lun faclu — tia ma lun ngun, a ma lun Devil.
16For where envying and contention is, there is inconstancy, and every evil work.
16Yen ma oasr sok ac nunku kac sifacna we, fohs ac kain in ma koluk nukewa oasr pac we.
17But the wisdom, that is from above, first indeed is chaste, then peaceable, modest, easy to be persuaded, consenting to the good, full of mercy and good fruits, without judging, without dissimulation.
17Ma se meet ke lalmwetmet lucng me uh pa nasnas; el oayapa misla, okak, ac kulang; sessesla ke pakoten ac fahko wo puspis; wangin srisri ac kutasrik.
18And the fruit of justice is sown in peace, to them that make peace.
18Mwet iwe elos yukwiya fita lun misla, na elos ac fah kosrani fahko lun misla, su pa suwoswos.
