1Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming on you.
1Long angraengnawk, vaihi angzo oh loe, nangcae nuiah kaom hankoi patangkhanghaih to hanghaih hoiah qah o haih ah.
2Your riches are corrupted and your garments are moth-eaten.
2Nangcae angraenghaih loe amro boeh, nangcae ih kahni doeh karaa mah caak boih boeh.
3Your gold and your silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be for a testimony against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up your treasure in the last days.
3Sui hoi sum kanglungnawk doeh aek mah caak boih boeh; to tiah aek mah caak ih hmuen loe nangcae hnukung ah om ueloe, hmai mah kangh ih baktih toengah nangcae ih ngan to caa tih. Hnukkhuem ni hanah ni tacong to na patung pae o boeh.
4Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you have kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Armies.
4Khenah, na lawk ah toksah kaminawk ih toksakhaih atho to na paek o ai, nihcae to na ling o pongah, toksah kaminawk loe hang o: caang aat kaminawk qahhaih lok to Sabaoth Angraeng ih naa ah phak boeh.
5You have lived in luxury on the earth, and taken your pleasure. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter.
5Nangcae loe phuhnaephaih hoi taksa nawmhaih hoiah hae long nuiah kho na sak o; ani phak naah boh hanah suek ih maitaw baktiah, na thawk o hruk boeh.
6You have condemned and you have murdered the righteous one. He doesn’t resist you.
6Nangcae ih lok aek ai, katoeng kaminawk to lok na caek o moe, na hum o boeh.
7Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receives the early and late rain.
7To pongah nawkamyanawk, Angraeng angzoh khoek to palungsawk oh. Lawk tok sah kami loe, long hoiah atho kaom thingthai to tacawt hanah, hmaloe koek hoi hnukkhuem koek khotui hnu ai karoek to kawbangmaw palungsawkhaih hoiah a zing, tito khen oh.
8You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
8Nangcae doeh palungsawk oh toeng ah; Angraeng angzohhaih ni loe zoi boeh pongah, poekhaih palungthin cak o sak ah.
9Don’t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you won’t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.
9Nawkamyanawk, maeto hoi maeto angzoeh o hmah, to tih ai nahaeloe lokcaekhaih na hnu o moeng tih: khenah, lokcaekkung loe thok taengah angdoet boeh.
10Take, brothers, for an example of suffering and of perseverance, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
10Nawkamyanawk, Angraeng ih ahmin hoi lok taphong tahmaanawk ih patangkhanghaih, pauephaih hoi palungsawkhaih to kuu la oh.
11Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and have seen the Lord in the outcome, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
11Khenah, raihaih pauep thaih kaminawk loe tahamhoihaih hnu kami ah oh o, tiah poekhaih a tawnh o. Job palungsawkhaih to na thaih o boeh, Angraeng loe palungnathaih hoiah koi pongah, boenghaih niah Angraeng mah anih han sak pae ih hmuen to na panoek o boeh.
12But above all things, my brothers, don’t swear—not by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your “yes” be “yes”, and your “no”, “no”, so that you don’t fall into hypocrisy.
12Toe nawkamyanawk, hmuen boih ah lokkamhaih to sah o hmah, van hoiah maw, to tih ai boeh loe long hoiah maw lokkamhaih to sah o hmah, kawbaktih kasae lokkamhaih doeh sah o hmah: tangtang ni, tiah na thuih o ih lok loe, tangtang ah om nasoe loe, tangtang ai, tiah na thuih o ih lok loe, tangtang ai ah om nasoe, to tih ai nahaeloe lokcaekhaih na tong o moeng tih.
13Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises.
13Nangcae thungah raihaih tong kami na oh o maw? Lawkthui nasoe. Poeknawm kami na oh o maw? Saam laa to sah nasoe.
14Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;
14Nangcae thungah nganna kami oh maw? Kricaa zaehoikung kacoehta to kawk nasoe; Angraeng ih ahmin hoiah situi bawh nasoe loe, lawkthui pae nasoe.
15and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
15Tanghaih hoi lawkthuihaih mah ngantuisak ueloe, Angraeng mah anih to pathawk tih; anih mah zaehaih sah moeng cadoeh, a zaehaihnawk to tahmen pae tih.
16Confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.
16Ngan na tui o thai hanah, maeto hoi maeto sakpazaehaih taphong oh, maeto hoi maeto hanah lawkthui oh. Kaciim kami maeto mah palung tang hoi lawkthuihaih loe kating ai atho oh.
17Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain, and it didn’t rain on the earth for three years and six months.
17Elijah loe aicae baktiah taksa hoi kaom kami maeto toeng ni, toe anih loe kho angzoh han ai ah loktangta hoiah lawk a thuih, to naah saning thumto hoi khrah tarukto thung long nuiah kho angzo ai.
18He prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.
18Anih mah lawkthuih let naah, van hoi khotui to krak moe, long mah thingthai to tacawtsak.
19Brothers, if any among you wanders from the truth and someone turns him back,
19Nawkamyanawk, loktang lok hoiah amkhraeng ving nangcae thungah kaom kami maeto to, kami maeto mah amlaemsak let nahaeloe,
20let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.
20kami zae caeh pazaehaih loklam thung hoiah angqoisak let kami loe, duekhaih thung hoiah pakhra to pahlong ueloe, pop parai zaehaihnawk to kraeng pae tih, tiah kaom lok to anih mah panoek nasoe.
