Santiago 5
1 Eya orain abratsác, nigar eguiçue, vrhubi eguiten duçuela çuen miseria helduren çaizquiçuenacgatic.
Come now, you men of wealth, give yourselves to weeping and crying because of the bitter troubles which are coming to you.
2 Çuen abrastassunac vsteldu dirade, çuen abillamenduac cerrenez betheac dirade.
Your wealth is unclean and insects have made holes in your clothing.
3 Çuen vrrhea eta çuen cilharra herdoildu da, eta hayén herdoildurác testificaturen du çuen contra, eta harc ditu ianen çuen haraguiac suac beçala: thesaurizatu duçue azquen egunetaco.
Your gold and your silver are wasted and their waste will be a witness against you, burning into your flesh. You have put by your store in the last days.
4 Huná, çuen landác errequeitatu dituzten languilén alocairu çueçaz defraudatu içan dena, oihuz dago, eta errequeitaçalén oihuac armadén Iaunaren beharrietan sarthu dirade.
See, the money which you falsely kept back from the workers cutting the grass in your field, is crying out against you; and the cries of those who took in your grain have come to the ears of the Lord of armies.
5 Deliciotan vici içan çarete lurraren gainean eta çuen atseguinac hartu vkan dituçue, eta çuen bihotzac ressasiatu vkan dituçue sacrificiotaco egunean beçala.
You have been living delicately on earth and have taken your pleasure; you have made your hearts fat for a day of destruction.
6 Condemnatu eta hil vkan duçue iustoa: eta eztrauçue resistitzen.
You have given your decision against the upright man and have put him to death. He puts up no fight against you.
7 Çareten bada patient, anayeác, Iaunaren aduenimendurano. Huná, laboraria lurreco fructu preciosoaren beguira egoiten da, patientqui haren beguira dagoela goiceco eta arratseco vria recebi deçaqueno.
Go on waiting calmly, my brothers, till the coming of the Lord, like the farmer waiting for the good fruit of the earth till the early and late rains have come.
8 Çareten patient çuec-ere eta confirmaitzaçue çuen bihotzac: ecen Iaunaren aduenimendua hurbil da.
Be as calm in your waiting; let your hearts be strong: because the coming of the Lord is near.
9 Etzaiteztela arrangura elkarren contra, anayeác, condemna etzaiteztençát: huná, iugea borthaitzinean dago.
Say no hard things against one another, brothers, so that you will not be judged; see, the judge is waiting at the doors.
10 Ene anayeác, har-itzaçue afflictionetaco eta patientiataco exemplutan Prophetác, cein minçatu baitirade Iaunaren icenean.
Take as an example of pain nobly undergone and of strength in trouble, the prophets who gave to men the words of the Lord.
11 Huná, dohatsu eduquiten ditugu afflictione suffritzen dutenac: Iob-en patientiá ençun vkan duçue, eta Iaunaren fina ikussi duçue, nola guciz misericordioso den Iauna eta gogabera.
We say that those men who have gone through pain are happy: you have the story of Job and the troubles through which he went and have seen that the Lord was full of pity and mercy in the end.
12 Bada gauça ororen aitzinetic, ene anayeác, iura ezteçaçuela ez ceruäz, ez lurraz, ez edocein berce iuramenduz: baina biz çuen baya, Bay: eta çuen eza, Ez: condemnationetara eror etzaiteztençát.
But most of all, my brothers, do not take oaths, not by the heaven, or by the earth, or by any other thing: but let your Yes be Yes, and your No be No: so that you may not be judged.
13 Affligitzen da cembeit çuen artean? othoitz begui: bihotz aleguerataco da cembeit? canta beça.
Is anyone among you in trouble? let him say prayers. Is anyone glad? let him make a song of praise.
14 Eri da cembeit çuen artean? erekar bitza Eliçaco ancianoac, eta othoitz beguité harengatic, vnctatzen dutela hura olioz Iaunaren icenean.
Is anyone among you ill? let him send for the rulers of the church; and let them say prayers over him, putting oil on him in the name of the Lord.
15 Eta fedezco orationeac saluaturen du eria, eta eraiquiren du hura Iaunac: eta baldin bekaturic eguin badu barkaturen çaizquió.
And by the prayer of faith the man who is ill will be made well, and he will be lifted up by the Lord, and for any sin which he has done he will have forgiveness.
16 Confessa ietzoçue batac berceari çuen faltác, eta othoitz eguiçue batac berceagatic, senda çaiteztençát: ecen anhitz balio du iustoaren efficaciorequin den orationeac.
So then, make a statement of your sins to one another, and say prayers for one another so that you may be made well. The prayer of a good man is full of power in its working.
17 Elias cen gu bay passionén suiectionetaco guiçona, eta othoiztez othoitz eguin ceçan, ezlaguian vriric, eta etzeçan eguin vriric lurraren gainean hirur vrthez eta sey hilebethez.
Elijah was a man of flesh and blood as we are, and he made a strong prayer that there might be no rain; and there was no rain on the earth for three years and six months.
18 Eta berriz othoitz eguin ceçan, eta ceruäc vri eman ceçan, eta lurrac bere fructua ekar ceçan.
And he made another prayer, and the heaven sent down rain and the earth gave her fruit.
19 Anayeác, baldin çuetaric cembeit eguiatic errebela badadi, eta hura conuerti badeça cembeitec,
My brothers, if one of you has gone out of the way of the true faith and another has made him see his error,
20 Iaquin beça ecen conuerti eraci duqueenac bekatorebat bere bideco errebelamendutic, saluaturen duqueela arimabat heriotaric, eta bekatu mulçoa estaliren duqueela.
Be certain that he through whom a sinner has been turned from the error of his way, keeps a soul from death and is the cause of forgiveness for sins without number.
