Santiago 2
1 Ene anayeác, eztuçuela Iesus Christ gure Iaun gloriazcoaren fedea, personén acceptionerequin.
My brothers, stop holding the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Glory, with partiality!
2 Ecen baldin sar badadi çuen congregationera guiçon-bat vrrhezco erhaztun-bat duela, preciosqui veztituric: eta sar dadin halaber edocein paubre charqui veztituric,
For if a man with a gold ring, in fine clothes, should enter your synagogue, and a poor man in filthy rags should also enter,
3 Eta ikartze duçuen preciosqui veztitua denagana, eta erran dieçoçuen hari, Hi iar adi hemen honestqui: eta paubreari derroçuen, Hi ago çutic han, edo iar adi hemen ene scabella azpian:
and you pay special attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and say to him, “You sit in this special seat,” but to the poor one you say, “You stand there,” or “Sit here at my footstool,”
4 Eztuçue differentia eguin vkan ceuroc baithan, eta eguin içan baitzarete pensamendu gaichtoezco iuge?
have you not been separated among yourselves and become judges with malignant thoughts?
5 Ençuçue, ene anaye maiteác, eztitu Iaincoac elegitu mundu hunetaco paubreac fedez abrats içateco, eta hura maite duteney promettatu drauen resumaco heredero?
Listen, my beloved brothers. Has not God chosen the poor of the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom that He has promised to those loving Him?
6 Baina çuec desohoratu vkan duçue paubrea. Ala abratsec etzaituztez tyrannizatzen, eta etzaituztez gortetara erekarten?
But you dishonored the poor one. Do not the rich oppress you and drag you into courts?
7 Eztute hec blasphematzen çuen gainean inuocatu içan den Icen ona?
Do they not blaspheme the noble name that was called upon you?
8 Badaric-ere baldin Legue reala complitzen baduçue Scripturaren araura, cein baita, On eritziren draucac eure hurcoari eure buruäri beçala, vngui eguiten duçue:
If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you do well;
9 Baina baldin personén acceptioneric baduçue, bekatu eguiten duçue, eta reprehenditzen çarete Legueaz transgrediçale beçala.
but if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.
10 Ecen norc-ere Legue gucia beguiraturen baitu, eta punctu batetan faltaturen, gucietan hoguendun da.
For whoever will keep the whole law, yet stumble in one point, has become guilty of all.
11 Ecen erran duenac, Eztuc adulteraturen, erran du halaber, Eztuc hilen. Bada baldin adulteratzen ezpaduc, baina hiltzen bay, Leguearen transgrediçale eguin aiz.
Because He who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery, but you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.
12 Hala minça çaitezte eta hala eguiçue nola libertatezco Legueaz iugeatu behar diradenéc.
Speak and act as being those who are about to be judged by a law of liberty
13 Ecen condemnatione misericordia gabe eguinen çayó misericordia eguin eztuqueenari: eta gloriatzen da misericordia condemnationearen contra.
(the judgment will be without mercy to the one not showing mercy). That law exalts mercy over judgment.
14 Ene anayeác, cer probetchu, baldin norbeitec badarra fede baduela, eta obrác eztituén? ala fede harc hura salua ahal deçaque?
What is the advantage, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? That faith cannot save him, can it?
15 Eta baldin anayea edo arrebá billuciac badirade, eta peitu eguneco vitançaren:
If a brother or sister is actually naked, and is destitute of the daily food,
16 Eta çuetaric cembeitec hæy erran diecén, Çoazte baquerequin, bero çaitezte eta asse çaitezte: eta eztinguzteçuen gorputzaren necessario diraden gauçác, cer probetchu duqueite?
and someone among you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you (pl) do not give them the things needed for the body, what is the benefit?
17 Hala fedea-ere, baldin obrác ezpaditu, hila da bere berez.
Thus also that faith, if it does not have works, is dead, being by itself.
18 Baina are erranén du edoceinec, Hic fedea duc, eta nic obrác citiat, eracuts ieçadac eure fedea eure obrác gabe, eta nic eracutsiren drauat hiri neure obretaric neure fedea.
(But someone will say: “You have faith and I have works. Show me your faith by your works and I, by my works will show you my faith [what he believes].”
19 Hic sinhesten duc ecen Iaincobat dela: vngui eguiten duc: deabruec-ere sinhesten dié, eta ikara diabiltzac.
You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe—and shudder!)
20 Baina nahi duc iaquin, o guiçon vanoá, ecen fedea obrác gabe hila dela?
But you need to know, you foolish fellow, that faith without works is dead!
21 Gure aita Abraham ezta obretaric iustificatu içan, Isaac bere semea aldare gainean offrendatu çuenean?
Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar?
22 Badacussac nola fedeac obratzen çuen haren obretan, eta obretaric fedea acabatu içan dela?
You can see that faith was acting together with his works, and the faith was made complete by the works.
23 Eta complitu içan dela Scripturá dioela, Sinhetsi vkan du Abrahamec Iaincoa, eta imputatu içan çayó iustitiatara, eta Iaincoaren adisquide deithu içan da.
And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “So Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called ‘friend of God’.
24 Badacussaçue bada ecen obretaric iustificatzen dela guiçona, eta ez fedetic solament?
You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.
25 Halaber Rahab paillarda-ere ala ezta obretaric iustificatu içan, recebitu cituenean mandatariac, eta berce bidez idoqui cituenean?
Similarly, was not Rahab the prostitute also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by a different way?
26 Ecen nola gorputza spiritu gabe hila baita, hala fedea-ere obrác gabe hila da.
For just as the body without spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.
