< Yakubu 5 >

1 Dan nene, anung alle na idinin nimon, sun kuchulu kang bara uniu din cinu udak kitimine.
Go now, ye rich, weep, howling for your miseries that are approaching.
2 Imon nachara mine na bijjo, inin kidowo mine imonli kijijiyari.
Your wealth has decayed, and your garments have become 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 your silver have cankered, and their corrosion will be testimony against you, and will eat your flesh like fire. Ye have hoarded in 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 wage of the workmen who reaped your fields. The man who was defrauded by you cries out. And the outcries of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of hosts.
5 Ina su lisosin nlazun mang nan nya in yi-ulele, inani na lanza nmang nimon nacara mine.
Ye have lived in luxury on the earth, and were self-indulgent. 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, ye have murdered the righteous man. He is not hostile to 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, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient for it, until it receives the early and latter rain.
8 Anung wang son ni nayi asheu; kele nibinayi mine bara udakin Cikilarẹ daduru susut.
Be ye also patient. Establish your hearts, because the coming of the Lord has approached.
9 Na iwa yita sisip ba, linuwana, kitene natimine, iwa su munu ushara'a yene, unan sharawẹ yissin kibulung.
Do not grumble, brothers, against each other, so that ye not be judged. Behold, the judge stands before the doors.
10 Linuwana na uso minu imon yenju, shonon iyizi iyene uneo nanan kadura Kutellẹ alle na liru nan nya lisan Ncikilari.
Take an example, my brothers, of evil-suffering and longsuffering, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
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 regard those who endured, blessed. Ye have heard of the fortitude of Job, and have seen the outcome of the Lord, that he is very compassionate and merciful.
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 brothers, swear not. Neither by the heaven, nor the earth, nor any other oath, but let your yes be yes, and the no, no, so that ye may not fall into hypocrisy.
13 Umong nan nya mine din niuwa? Na ati nlira. Umong mine dinin liburi libowa? Na ati avu liru.
Is any man among you afflicted? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praise.
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 man weak among you? Let him summon the elders of the congregation, and let them pray near him, having anointed him with olive 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 rescue him who is depressed, and the Lord will rouse him. And if he should be a man who has 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 ye the trespasses to each other, and pray for each other so that ye may be healed. A working supplication of a righteous man is very powerful.
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 of the same nature as we. And by prayer, he asked for it not to rain, and it did not rain on the earth for 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 produced its fruit.
19 Nuwana nig, asa umong nan nya mine nlasina kiti kidegen, umong mine nwa kpilaghe ninghe.
Brothers, if any man among you may be led astray from the truth, and some man converts 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 converts a sinful man from his wandering way, will save a soul from death, and will hide a multitude of sins.
