< Jacob 1 >

1 Hiche lekhathot hi Pathen le Pakai Yeshua Christa soh, Jacob a kon ahi. keiman Judah mi atahsan ho Israel phungsom le ni gamtina kithecheh ho henga dinga kajih ahi. Chibai!
James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are in the Dispersion: Greetings.
2 Sopi deitahteho, nangho hahsatna hon nahinphah tenguleh, hichu hachangpa kipana dinga chanpha changin kingaitouvin.
Count it all joy, my brothers, when you fall into various temptations,
3 Ajehchu natahsanu chu akipatep tengleh, natahsan chu khanglen ding ahi ti naheuve.
knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
4 Hijehchun khansah un, ajeh chu nathoh hatnau chu ahung khan'a abulhin tengleh nangho nabulhinuva chule nachamkim uva, imacha kiphahsamna neilou nahi dingu ahi.
Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
5 Nanghon chihna na-ngaichat uva ahileh, hongphaltah IPathen'u koma chun thum'un, chutileh Aman napeh dingu ahi. Nathum jeh uva chu Aman nahouset louhel dingu ahi.
But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
6 Hinlah Ama koma nathum tenguleh Pathen bou natahsan chu kicheh hen. Lunglinglau hih un, ajeh chu atahsan detlou mi chu twikhanglen kinong le detna neilou huimut lon le tobang hiding ahi.
But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.
7 Hitobang mi chun Pakaiya kona imacha muding kinepna neihih hen.
For that man should not think that he will receive anything from the Lord.
8 Amaho kiphaldohna chu Pathen le vannoiya kihom khen'ah ahiuvin, chule abol jouseu chu detna neilou ahiuve.
He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
9 Tahsan cha avaicha hon kisonna ding khat chu aneiyuve, ajeh chu Pathen in amaho ajabol ahitai.
Let the brother in humble circumstances glory in his high position;
10 Chule mihao ho chu Pathen in asuhnemu chu kithang-atnan neijou hen. Amaho chu loujaova pahcha neocha tobanga mola ahitauve.
and the rich, in that he is made humble, because like the flower in the grass, he will pass away.
11 Nisa sat chu ahungsa cheh cheh in hampa chu asang gop in: Pahcha neocha chu apul in chule ahoina jong amollha jitai. Hitobang a chu, mihaoho jong athilbol doh jouseu toh mollha jeng diu ahiuve.
For the sun arises with the scorching wind and withers the grass; and the flower in it falls, and the beauty of its appearance perishes. So the rich man will also fade away in his pursuits.
12 Patepna le lhepna a thoh hattah'a pang ho chu Pathen in phatthei aboh ding ahi: Chujoutah chule Pathen in Ama ngailuho athutep hinna lallukhuh chu amahon asan dingu ahi.
Blessed is a person who endures temptation, for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord promised to those who love him.
13 Chule nanghon lhepna nato tenguleh geldoh un, “Pathen in eilhep patep ahi” tin hinsei hih beh un. Pathen chu thil dihlou bol dingin akilhem patep khapoi chule Ama chun koima alhem khapoi.
Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.
14 Lhep patepna hi eima ho lung ngaichatna a hung kipanjia hichun eidoha boljiuva chule eipui mang jiu ahi.
But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own lust and enticed.
15 Hiche lung ngaichatna ho hin chonset natoh ahin sodohji ahi. Chule chonset chu akhangtou dia akiphal teng leh, hichun thina ahin sohdoh ji ahi.
Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin. The sin, when it is full grown, produces death.
16 Hijeh chun sopite, puimang theiyin umhih'un.
Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers.
17 Ipi hileh apha le achamkim chu I-Pau Pathena hungkon ahi, Ama chun van hoa vah jouse asem ahi. Ama akichonle theile banga kikhel jing ahipoi.
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation nor turning shadow.
18 Ama chun eiho dinga Athutah chu eipeh tah jeh uva pengthah dia eilhendoh u ahi. Chule eiho hi athilsem jouse lah a agou manlu tah chu ihung hiu ahitai.
Of his own will he gave birth to us by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.
19 Kasopi deitahteho, hiche hi heuvin, nangho thungaina lama gang uvin lang, thuseiyin kino hih un.
So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger;
20 Mihem lung hanna hin Pathen ngaichat chonphatna ahin lhutpoi.
for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
21 Hijeh chun, anen anamse chule na hinkhouva aphalou jouse chu paidoh un, chule Pathen in nalunguva akhum Thu chu kisanun, ajeh chu hichun na lhagaovu ahuhhing thei ahi.
Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
22 Pathen Thu chu moh ngaitho hih un. Pathen Thun asei chu bolteiyun. Achuti louva ahileh nang le nang ki-ngolbol nahi ding ahitai.
But be doers of the word, and not only hearers, deluding your own selves.
23 Ajeh chu nangman Thu chu nangaiya chule najui louva ahileh, phatvet a namai vea tobang nahi ding ahi.
For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man looking at his natural face in a mirror;
24 Nangma le nangma nakivet jouva nache mang tengleh, itobang lim pua nahi nasumil jitai.
for he sees himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.
25 Hinlah nangman nachamlhat sahthei achamkim kei dan chu chingthei tah'a navet a, chule hichun ipi asei nasuh mil louva najui leh, Pathen in hichu nabol jeh a phatthei naboh ding ahi.
But he who looks into the perfect law of freedom and continues, not being a hearer who forgets but a doer of the work, this man will be blessed in what he does.
26 Nangma hou ngaisah a nakigel a ahia nakam nathunun louva ahileh, nangma tah kingol bol nahin, na Pathen hou chu pannabei hiya ahi.
If anyone among you thinks himself to be religious while he does not bridle his tongue, but deceives his heart, this man’s religion is worthless.
27 Pa Pathen mitmua hou thengsel le adihtah chu–meithai ho chule nuneilou le pa neilou ho alunglhah nauva gakhotoa chule vannoiyin suhboh ding jahnom lou hiya ahi.
Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
