James 5
1 Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming on you.
Ꭷ ᏂᎯ ᏗᏤᎿᎭᎢ ᏗᏣᏠᏱᎦ ᎠᎴ ᏗᏥᏴᎳ ᏫᏂᎦᎵᏍᏙᏓ ᎢᏥᎩᎵᏲᎢᏍᏗ ᎢᏥᎷᏤᏗ ᏥᎩ.
2 Your riches are corrupted and your garments are moth-eaten.
ᏧᎬᏩᎶᏗ ᎢᏥᎲᎢ ᎤᎪᏒ; ᏗᏣᏄᏬᏃ ᏥᏍᎪᏴ ᎦᏂᏯᎥ;
3 Your 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.
ᏗᏣᏤᎵ ᏓᎶᏂᎨ ᎠᏕᎸ ᎠᎴ ᎤᏁᎬ ᎠᏕᎸ ᏚᏯᏍᏜᏓᏛ, ᏚᏯᏍᏜᏓᏛᏃ ᎢᏥᏃᎮᏍᎩ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᏪᏰᏍᏗ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ ᎢᏥᏇᏓᎸ ᎠᏥᎸ ᏥᎦᏰᏍᎪ ᎾᏍᎩᏯᎢ. ᎢᏥᏟᏌᏅ ᏧᎬᏩᎶᏗ ᎤᎵᏍᏆᎸᏗ ᎢᎦ ᎨᏒ ᎤᎬᏩᎵ.
4 Behold, 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.
ᎬᏂᏳᏉ ᎠᏠᏱᎭ ᎨᎦᎫᏴᏓᏁᏗ ᏧᏂᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᎯ ᎤᏂᏍᎫᏕᏒᎯ ᏕᏥᎶᎨᏒᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏗᏥᎾᎯᏍᏓᏁᎸᎯ ᏥᎩ, ᎤᎾᎵᏍᏛᏃ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᏂᏍᎫᏕᏒᎯ ᏚᎵᎠᏴᎸ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏓᎿᎭᏩ ᎠᏁᎩ ᎤᎾᏤᎵᎦ.
5 You have lived in luxury on the earth, and taken your pleasure. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter.

6 You have condemned and you have murdered the righteous one. He doesn’t resist you.
ᏕᎫᎪᏓᏁᎸ ᎠᎴ ᎡᏥᎸ ᎾᏍᎩᏅᎾ, ᎥᏝᏃ ᏱᏣᏞᏤᎭ.
7 Be 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.
ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏳᏍᏗ ᎢᏓᎵᏅᏟ ᏗᏨᏂᏗᏳ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ ᎬᏂ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎦᎷᏨᎭ. ᎬᏂᏳᏉ ᎤᎶᎨᏛ ᎠᎦᏘᏲ ᎦᎸᏉᏗ ᎡᎶᎯ ᎤᎾᏄᎪᏫᏒᎯ, ᎠᎴ ᎬᏂᏗᏳ ᎨᏐ ᎠᎦᏘᏲᎢ, ᎬᏂ ᎤᎦᎾᏏ ᎢᎬᏱᏱ ᎠᎴ ᎣᏂᏱ ᎤᎦᏃᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ.
8 You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
ᏂᎯ ᎾᏍᏉ ᏗᏨᏂᏗᏳ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ; ᏗᏣᎵᏂᎪᎯᏍᏓ ᏗᏥᎾᏫ, ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯᏰᏃ ᎤᎷᎯᏍᏗᏱ ᎤᏍᏆᎸᎯᏗ.
9 Don’t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you won’t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.
ᎢᏓᏓᏅᏟ ᏞᏍᏗ ᏱᏗᏣᏓᏍᎦᎨᏍᏗ ᏱᏕᏧᎪᏓᏏᏰᏃ ᎢᏥᏍᎦᏅᏨᎢ. ᎬᏂᏳᏉ ᏗᎫᎪᏗᏍᎩ ᎦᎶᎯᏍᏗᏱ ᎦᏙᎦ.
10 Take, brothers, for an example of suffering and of perseverance, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
ᎢᏓᏓᏅᏟ ᎠᏙᎴᎰᎯᏍᏙᏗ ᎠᎩᎵᏲᎢᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎴ ᎬᏂᏗᏳ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎠᎾᏙᎴᎰᏍᎩ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏕᎤᏙᏍᏛ ᎤᏂᏁᎢᏍᏔᏅᎯ ᏥᎩ, ᏗᏥᎧᎿᎭᏩᏛᏍᏗ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ.
11 Behold, 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.
ᎬᏂᏳᏉ ᎣᏏᏳ ᎢᏳᎾᎵᏍᏓᏁᏗ ᎢᎩᏰᎸᏐ ᏗᏅᏂᏗᏳ ᏥᎨᏐᎢ. ᎢᏣᏛᎦᏅ ᎬᏂᏗᏳ ᎨᏒ ᏦᏈ, ᎠᎴ ᎢᏥᎪᎲ ᏄᏍᏛ ᏭᏰᎢᎶᎯᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ, ᎠᎴ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎤᏣᏘ ᎤᏓᏅᏘᏳ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎴ ᎤᏓᏙᎵᏣᏘᏳ ᎨᏒᎢ.
12 But 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.
ᎠᏎᏃ ᎢᏓᏓᏅᏟ, ᏭᏓᎪᎾᏛᏛᎢ, ᏞᏍᏗ ᏱᏣᏎᎵᏛᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᏱᏥᏁᎢᏍᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᎦᎸᎶᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎡᎶᎯ, ᎠᎴ ᏞᏍᏗ ᏄᏓᎴᏒᏉ ᎠᏎᎵᏙᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ; ᎠᎴ ᏞᏍᏗ ᏄᏓᎴᏒᏉ ᎠᏎᎵᏙᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ; ᎢᏣᏤᎵᏍᎩᏂ ᎥᎥ ᎢᏣᏛᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎥᎥ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ, ᎠᎴ ᎢᏣᏤᎵ ᎥᏝ ᎢᏣᏛᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎥᏝ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ; ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᏞᏍᏗ ᏤᏧᎪᏓᏁᎸᎩ ᎢᏥᏍᎦᏅᏨᎢ.
13 Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises.
ᎩᎶ ᎢᏤᎲ ᎤᏓᏑᏰᏍᏗ ᎠᎩᎵᏲᎨᏍᏗ, ᎠᏓᏙᎵᏍᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ; ᎩᎶ ᎤᎦᎵᏍᏗ ᎤᏓᏅᏖᏍᏗ ᏕᎧᏃᎩᏍᎨᏍᏗ.
14 Is 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;
ᎩᎶ ᎢᏤᎲ ᎤᏓᏑᏰᏍᏗ ᎤᏢᎨᏍᏗ, ᏫᏓᏯᏂᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᏗᎨᎦᏗᎶᏗ ᏧᎾᏁᎶᏗ ᎤᎾᏓᏡᎬᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᎠᎾᏓᏙᎵᏍᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᎠᏂᏔᏲᎯᎮᏍᏗ ᎠᏥᏍᏕᎸᏗᏱ, ᎬᏩᎶᏁᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᎠᏠᏁᏗ ᎠᏅᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏚᏙᎥᎢ;
15 and 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.
ᎪᎯᏳᎯᏃ ᎠᏓᏃᎵᏍᏙᏗ ᎨᏒ ᏓᏳᏍᏕᎸᎯ ᎤᏢᎩ, ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯᏃ ᏙᏓᏳᎴᏔᏂ; ᎢᏳ ᎠᎴ ᎤᏍᏚᏅᏨᎯ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ ᎾᏍᎩ ᏣᏥᏂᎯᏎᏗ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ.
16 Confess 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.
ᎬᏂᎨᏒ ᏂᏕᏣᏓᏛᏁᎮᏍᏗ ᎢᏥᏍᎦᏅᏨᏗ, ᎠᎴ ᏕᏣᏓᏙᎵᏍᏓᏁᎮᏍᏗ, ᎢᏂᏔᏲᎯᎮᏍᏗ ᏗᏣᏗᏫᏍᏗᏱ. ᎤᏙᎯᏳᎯᏯ ᎤᏰᎸᎯ ᎤᏓᏙᎵᏍᏙᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏓᏅᏘ ᎤᏣᏘ ᎠᏓᏍᏕᎵᏍᎪᎢ.
17 Elijah 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.

18 He prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.
ᎠᎴᏬ ᎤᏓᏙᎵᏍᏔᏅᎩ, ᎦᎸᎶᎢᏃ ᎤᎦᏃᏓᏁᎸᎩ, ᎪᏙᎯᏃ ᎤᎾᏄᎪᏫᏒᎩ ᎤᎾᏄᎪᏫᏍᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ.
19 Brothers, if any among you wanders from the truth and someone turns him back,
ᎢᏓᎵᏅᏟ, ᎢᏳᏃ ᎩᎶ ᏂᎯ ᏂᏣᏛᏅ ᎠᏞᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᏚᏲᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᏚᏳᎪᏛ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎩᎶᏃ ᎢᎤᎦᏔᎲᏍᎨᏍᏗ,
20 let 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.
