James 2
1 My brothers, don’t hold the faith of our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with partiality.
Valokolo lwango mlekhe ukukonga ulwidiko lwa nkuludeva uYesu Klisite unkudeva va vuvalanche pakuvavonela avange avanu.
2 For if a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your synagogue, and a poor man in filthy clothing also comes in,
Ingave umunu uyunge angingele kwu lulundamano lwinyo afwalila, ipete icha sahabu ni myenda iminonu, khange angingele ugachu unya myenda imivivi,
3 and you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing and say, “Sit here in a good place;” and you tell the poor man, “Stand there,” or “Sit by my footstool”
mkatengula ukumwimika ficho ula unya myenda iminonu nukuta, “Siwo uveve tama apa pavunonu” khange mkambula uganchu ula uveve ima pala au tama pasi pamalunde gango.”
4 haven’t you shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
Samhigana yumwe mwevene, nukuva vahegi mwe mvile na masage amavivi?
5 Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn’t God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?
Mpulihichage valukolo lwango vagane, uNguluve savahalile avagachu va kilunga ukuva vatajili va lwidiko nu kuhala uvutwa uwa vavolile anganile?
6 But you have dishonored the poor man. Don’t the rich oppress you and personally drag you before the courts?
Umwe mwibeda avaganchu savayili vavo vikuvatesya umwe, kange vuvavo avikuva kwegania kuvuhigi?
7 Don’t they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?
Sa vuvatayili uvo vikuliduka ilitawa lila ilinonu ilyo ili mkwelangiwa?
8 However, if you fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you do well.
Hata lino ingave mkonga ululagilo lwa kivaha nduvu livigilwe mumbusimbe, “Vugana uvimlipaninye nduve vemwene,” mwigaha vunonu.
9 But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.
Umwe ingave mukuva vonela avanu avange, mwitula inongwa, mhigiwa nululagilo ukuva mlivadenya lulagilo.
10 For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.
Ulwakuva yoyoni uvidwada ululagilo lwoni, kange ikhe bomieha nukhuta yimo avile nukudenya ululagilo lwoni.
11 For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not commit murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery but do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.
Ulwakhuva uNguluve atile vulekhe, “Uvuligu,” vi yuywa khange uvyatile ulabudaga 'ulabuda' ingave savuligupa uve wibuda, uve udenyile ululagilo lwa Nguluve.
12 So speak and so do as men who are to be judged by the law of freedom.
Pwu mchovage nu kudwada ndavalo uvumlipaninie ukuhigi wa wavukhe.
13 For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
Ulwakuva uvuhigi wukwincha khista kisa kuvala avanchila kisa. Ikisa khikheginia pakyanya pa vuhigi.
14 What good is it, my brothers, if a man says he has faith, but has no works? Can faith save him?
Kulivononu vukhi valokololwango ingave umunu nu ita, alinulwidiko humbe inchile mbombo? Ulwidiko yalukumpoka?
15 And if a brother or sister is naked and in lack of daily food,
Ingave ulukulolwango udemi ung'inja ilonde imienda apange ikhakhulya kya khila linchova
16 and one of you tells them, “Go in peace. Be warmed and filled;” yet you didn’t give them the things the body needs, what good is it?
uyunge akavavula lutaga nulunu nchehencho mkwotage umwoto, nukhulya vunonu,” umwe samu khupa ifinu ifya mbili mugahile ndakhikhi?
17 Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.
Khange ulwidiko lwene khisita mbombo, yifwile.
18 Yes, a man will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without works, and I will show you my faith by my works.
Khange kwale umunu uyunge iwesya ukhunchova, “Ulinu lwidiko nayune nilinacho imbombo.” Imbonesye ulwidiko lwako nayune nivanesya ulwidiko lwango mu mbombo.
19 You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe—and shudder.
Vukhwidika ukhuta kwulinu Nguluve yumo; lweli. pwu lino naga masetano nagope kwikhwedika nu khuhilila.
20 But do you want to know, vain man, that faith apart from works is dead?
Lino winogwa ukhulumanya uve vi munu vimpelwa, umluvelile ulwidiko khisita mbombo iyusayinogile?
21 Wasn’t Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?
Lino udada yitu uAbrahamu avaliliwe uwayilweli mmbombo upwu atolile umwana va mwene u Isaka pa nekhelo?
22 You see that faith worked with his works, and by works faith was perfected.
Mvilola ukuva ulwidiko lwa mwene lulikuvomba paninie ni mbombo nche mwene nchafikile uvunogwe vwa mwene.
23 So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness,” and he was called the friend of God.
Uvusimbe vwafikele agita “UAbrahamu ali amwidike uNguluve, alikuvaliliwa ukhuva va yilweli.” akhilongiwa mmanyani va Nguluve.
24 You see then that by works a man is justified, and not only by faith.
Mwilola ukuva ku mbombo umunu ivaleliwa uvwa yelweli, nufwe kulwidiko vuvule.
25 In the same way, wasn’t Rahab the prostitute also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?
Khange sale vi Rahabu ummalaya ule ava leliwe uwa yilweli ku mbombo upwu avinginche avanu nu kuvahilikha ku nsewe ugunge?
26 For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is dead.
Ulwakuva ingave umbili gungave khista mwuyo gufwile vuyilivwo ulwidiko khisita mbombo lufwile.
