Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Mwet kawuk luk, ke kut mwet lulalfongi in Leum lasr Jesus Christ, Leum lun wolana, kowos in tia srisri, ku sule mwet ke lumahlos.
1My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons.
2Fin pa mwet kasrup se el ring gold ac nukum nuknuk wowo utyak nu ke tukeni se lowos, ac mwet sukasrup se wi pac utyak ac el nukum nuknuk mihsasa.
2For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment;
3Kom fin akfulatye mwet se ma nukum nuknuk wowo ac fahk nu sel, “Muta fin mwe muta wowo se inge,” a kom fahk nu sin mwet sukasrup sac, “Tu inse ingo, ku muta infohk uh sisken niuk,”
3And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool:
4ya kom tia sifacna oru in oasr mwatum ke kom srisri ac nununku mwet ke ouiya sufal?
4Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?
5Mwet kawuk saok luk, kowos in porongo! God El sulela mwet sukasrup fin faclu tuh elos in kasrup in lulalfongi, ac in ipeis ke tokosrai se su El wuleang kac nu sin mwet su lungse El.
5Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?
6A kowos pilesru mwet sukasrup! Ya tia mwet kasrup pa akkolukye kowos ac uskowosyak nu in nununku?
6But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?
7Elos pa mwet ma kaskas enum ke ine wolana se su itukot nu suwos ac kowos ekin.
7Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called?
8Ma se ma wo ac suwohs kowos in oru uh pa akos ma sap lun Tokosrai, su simla in Ma Simusla: “Kom fah lungse mwet tulan lom oana ke kom lungse kom sifacna.”
8If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:
9A kowos fin srisri, kowos orekma koluk, ac Ma Sap uh ac nununkekowos oana mwet kunaus ma sap.
9But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.
10Kutena mwet su srike in karinganang ma sap nukewa a el kunausla sie, oasr mwatal kac nufon.
10For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point , he is guilty of all.
11Tuh El su fahk, “Nik kom kosro,” El oayapa fahk, “Nik kom akmas.” Kom finne tia kosro, kom srakna sie mwet kunausla ma sap, kom fin akmas.
11For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
12Kowos in kaskas ac orekma oana mwet su etu lah God El ac nununku mwet fal nu ke ma sap su ase sukosok.
12So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
13Tuh ke God El ac nununku mwet uh, ac fah wangin pakomuta lal nu sin mwet su tia pakoten; a mwet se su pakoten el ac fah kutangla nununku.
13For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.
14Mwet lulalfongi wiuk, mea sripa sie mwet el fin fahk mu oasr lulalfongi lal, a orekma lal tia akpwayei? Lulalfongi sac ku in molella?
14What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
15Fin oasr mwet lulalfongi wiasr, mukul ku mutan, su enenu nuknuk ac wangin ma nalos.
15If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,
16Mea sripa sie suwos fin fahk nu selos, “God Elan akinsewowoye kom! Kom in fusrfusr ac kihp!” — kom fin tia sang mwe enenu lun manolos?
16And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?
17Oapana lulalfongi uh: el fin mukena ac wangin orekma wi, na lulalfongi sac misa.
17Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
18Sahp oasr sie mwet ac fahk mu, “Lulalfongi oan sum ac orekma oan sik.” Na nga ac topuk ac fahk, “Akkalemye lulalfongi lom sayen orekma. Ac nga ac akkalemye nu sum lulalfongi luk ke orekma luk.”
18Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
19Ya kom lulalfongi lah oasr God sefanna? Wona! Demon uh elos lulalfongi pac, ac rarrar ke sangeng.
19Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
20Kom sie mwet lalfon! Ya kom lungse in oasr mwe akpwayeye nu sum lah lulalfongi sayen orekma wanginna sripa?
20But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
21Abraham, papa matu tumasr meet ah, el aksuwosyeyuk fuka ye mutun God? Ke sripen orekma lal, ke el kisakunul Isaac, wen natul, fin loang uh.
21Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
22Kom tia akilen? Lulalfongi lal ac orekma lal tukenina orekma. Lulalfongi lal aksuwosyeyuk ke orekma lal.
22Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?
23Na akpwayeyuk Ma Simusla se inge: “Abraham el lulalfongi God, ac ke sripen lulalfongi lal, God El oakalla sie mwet suwoswos.” Ouinge pangpang el kawuk lun God.
23And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.
24Inge, kowos liye lah sie mwet el aksuwosyeyuk yurin God ke orekma lal, ac tia ke lulalfongi lal mukena.
24Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
25Oapana Rahab, mutan kosro sac — God El tuh oakal sie mwet suwoswos ke sripen orekma lal, ke el tuh kulang nu sin mwet kalngeyuk lun Israel ac kasrelos ke el supwalosla in kaing ke soko pacna inkanek.
25Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way?
26Na oana ke mano sayen ngun el misa, ouinge lulalfongi sayen orekma el misa.
26For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
