James 5
1 Go to now, all of you rich men, weep and wail for your miseries that shall come upon you.
Hete! ry mpañalealeo, miroveta naho mitoreòva amo hasotriañe hivotrak’ ama’ areoo.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten.
Fa momoke ty vara’ areo, nihanem-bararaoke o saro’ areoo.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. All of you have heaped treasure together for the last days.
Herefeñe ty volamena naho ty volafoti’ areo, toe ho sesehe’ ty harefesa’e, hampibotseke ty nofo’ areo hoe afo, ie nahaja’ areo ho amo andro honka’eo o vara’ areoo.
4 Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, cries: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.
Inao! Mitoreo ty rima’e o mpièke nanatake o tete’ areoo, ie nahaja’ areo avao. Fa nitakats’ an-dravembia’ i Talè’ i màroy ty fitoreova’ o mpanatakeo.
5 All of you have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; all of you have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.
Ie toe niagaregañe an-tane atoy naho niaiñañoleñañe, nañavondra-troke ho amy andro fandentàñey,
6 All of you have condemned and killed the just; and he does not resist you.
Mamàtse naho mañoho-doza amy vañoñey, ie tsy nanohetse.
7 Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, and has long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.
Mahaliñisa arè ry longo, ampara’ ty fitotsaha’ i Talè. Oniño ty fahaliñisa’ i mpiavay ty voka-tsoa’ i taney, ie liñisa’e ampara’ te avy i loha-orañey naho i oran-jobay.
8 Be all of you also patient; establish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draws nigh.
Mahaliñisa, mihaozara troke, fa an-titotse ty fitotsaha’ i Talè.
9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest all of you be condemned: behold, the judge stands before the door.
Ko mifamarahy ry longo, tsy mone ho zakaeñe. Hehe te mijohañe an-dalañe eo i Mpizakay.
10 Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.
O koahe, rendreho o mpitoky nisaontsy amy tahina’ i Talèio ho fandrazañañe ty fahaliñisañe naho hasotriañe.
11 Behold, we count them happy which endure. All of you have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
Ataon-tika haha ty mahafifeake. Toe jinanji’ areo ty fahaliñisa’ i Joba naho niisa’ areo ty nanoe’ i Talè, fa lifon-kalèn’ arofo naho fiferenaiñañe t’i Talè.
12 But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest all of you fall into condemnation.
Mandikoatse ie iabiy, ry longo, ko mifanta—he amy likerañey, ke ami’ty tane toy, hera am-panta ila’e, fe anò eka ty eka’ areo, naho Aiy! ty tsie’ areo, tsy mone hampihotrahan-jaka.
13 Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms.
Ia ama’ areo ro misotry? Soa re te hihalaly. Ia ty ehake? Ehe t’ie hisabo.
14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
Ama’areo ao hao ty siloke? Soa re te hikanjy o bei’ i Fivoriio hihalaly ho aze, hañosoran-tavoñe amy tahina’ i Talèy,
15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
Ie mihalaly am-patokisañe ro mahajangañe i natindriy vaho hatroa’ i Talè. Ie nandilatse, le hafahañe.
16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that all of you may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
Aa le mifampiantofa tahiñe vaho mifampihalalia le ho jangañe. Mahatafetetse raha maro ty halaly toloñe’ ty vantañe.
17 Elijah was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.
Ondaty nira-vintañe amantika t’i Elia, ie nihalaly ty tsy hahavian’ orañe, le tsy niavy an-tane atoy naho tsy niritse hey ty taoñe telo-tsi-enem-bolañe.
18 And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.
Ie nihalaly indraike, le nampikojojoahe’ i likerañey i orañey vaho nahatoly sabo ty tane.
19 Brethren, if any of you do go astray from the truth, and one convert him;
Ory longo, naho ama’ areo ty mandifik’ ami’ty hatò, vaho eo ty mampoly aze,
20 Let him know, that he which converts the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.
Le maharendreha te ze mampitolike ty mpanan-kakeo amy fandilara’e i lalañey ro handromba-piaiñe tsy hihomake vaho handembeke tahiñe maro.
