Yakubu 5
1 Dan nene, anung alle na idinin nimon, sun kuchulu kang bara uniu din cinu udak kitimine.
Come now, [ye] rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon [you].
2 Imon nachara mine na bijjo, inin kidowo mine imonli kijijiyari.
Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten.
3 Inin izinariya nin nazurfa mine imon ihem tinin tilo mine ma dursu kanang nato ula nleo nidowo mine. Inani na ceo utamani mine udu ayiri nimalin.
Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a testimony against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have amassed treasure for the last days.
4 Yeneng, ubizu na nan katuwa ngirbi nanẹn mine, alle na ina bya nani ba, idi kuchulu! Tutung kuchulu nanan pituru kusana naduru atuff NCikilari Nvat.
Behold, the hire of the laborers who have reaped your fields, which is by you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them who have reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.
5 Ina su lisosin nlazun mang nan nya in yi-ulele, inani na lanza nmang nimon nacara mine.
Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.
6 Ina su libya nati mine udu liri nimalin. Ina su ushara inin molo unit unan fiu Kutellẹ, ulenge na anati minu imon ba.
Ye have condemned [and] killed the just; [and] he doth not resist you.
7 Bara nani linuwana, tan ayi asheu udi duru kubi ndak Ncikilar, nafo unan nikawa na adin cha kubin girbi nimonli kunen, idin cawe nin nayi asheu ucizunun nwuru kussik nin un kussana.
Be patient, therefore, brethren, to the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receiveth the early and the latter rain.
8 Anung wang son ni nayi asheu; kele nibinayi mine bara udakin Cikilarẹ daduru susut.
Be ye also patient; establish your hearts; for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.
9 Na iwa yita sisip ba, linuwana, kitene natimine, iwa su munu ushara'a yene, unan sharawẹ yissin kibulung.
Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned: behold, the judge standeth before the door.
10 Linuwana na uso minu imon yenju, shonon iyizi iyene uneo nanan kadura Kutellẹ alle na liru nan nya lisan Ncikilari.
Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.
11 Yene tidin yicu alenge na ina ti ayi akone anan “nmari.” na lanza ubelle nayi akonen Ayuba, inani na yene umalzinu katuwa udalilin Ncikilari kitin Ayuba, na Cikilari wa kulun nin kune-kune nin nayi asheu
Behold, we count them happy who endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
12 Ubun nin nimon vat, nuwana ning, yenje iwa su isili, na nin kitekani, sa ni kutïn, sa imon nisili ba. Nan nya nani na ''kidegen'' mine so ''kidegen'' ''udiru kidegen'' mine so ''udiru kidegen,'' bara iwa diu nan nya nshara.
But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea, be yea: and [your] nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation.
13 Umong nan nya mine din niuwa? Na ati nlira. Umong mine dinin liburi libowa? Na ati avu liru.
Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any cheerful? let him sing psalms.
14 Umong nan nya mine dinin konå? Na ayicila akune kutyin nlira alenge na ina tarda nani acara itighe nlira itintinghe nnuf nan nya Lisan Cikilari,
Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
15 mini nliran nan yinnu sa uyenu din shinu nin nan konu, Kutellẹ ba fighe kiti linonin me, adi ana ti kulapi wang, Kutellẹ ma kalughe kuning.
And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he hath committed sins, they will be forgiven him.
16 Bara nani belle alapi mine kiti nati mine, isu ati mine nlira, inan se ushinu. Nliran nan yiru kidegen din dasu nin nimon likara gbardang nan nya katuwa me.
Confess [your] faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of the righteous man availeth much.
17 Iliya unitari wadi nafo arike, amini wa ti nlira nin kibinayi kirum na uwuru nwan jü nan nya nmyen ba, ita akus atat nin tipui kutocin na uwuren jü ba.
Elijah was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.
18 Iliya ta nlira tutung, Kutellẹ toltuno uwuru gbardang, kutyin nutuno imonli nin kpih.
And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth its fruit.
19 Nuwana nig, asa umong nan nya mine nlasina kiti kidegen, umong mine nwa kpilaghe ninghe.
Brethren, if any one of you should err from the truth, and one should convert him;
20 Na ame yinin nworu ulle na a kpilla nin nan kulapi unuzu libau ntanume aso arucu kidowo kitin nkul, ame ma kussu alapi gbardang.
Let him know, that he who converteth a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death, and will hide a multitude of sins.
