James 3
1 Not, many teachers, become ye, my brethren, knowing that, a severer sentence, shall ye receive;
Ibiingi benu tabeelede kuba bayiisyi pe, nobakwesu, nkambo mulizi kuti iswe nituyiisya tuyobetekwa zikkalikali.
2 For, oft, are we stumbling, one and all: If anyone, in word, doth not stumble, the same, is a mature man, able to curb even the whole body.
Nkambo toonse tuladadalika munzila inyingi. Kuti umwi muntu katadadaliki kumajwi, ooyo muntu uliluleme chakumaninina, kakkonzya akululamika mubili wakwe woonse.
3 Now, if, the horses bits, into their mouths, we thrust, to the end they may be yielding to us, their whole body also, do we turn about.
Lino kuti twabikka nkabyo mumulomo wamabbiza kuti atulemeke, tulakonzya alimwi kululamika mibili yawo.
4 Lo! the ships also, large as they are, and, by rough winds, driven along, are turned about by a very small helm, whithersoever the impulse of the steersman inclineth.
Amuzibe alimwi ikuti maato, nikuba kuti mapati byeni alimwi aleenzegwa aluuwo, alayambwa ansoke nini loko kuyosika kufumbwa nkwayanda sikwayenzya ensoke.
5 So, also, the tongue, is, a little member, and yet, of great things, maketh boast. Lo! how small a fire, kindleth, how great a forest;
Muli eyi inzila, lulimi nchizo chinini loko, pesi lukomezya zintu zipati loko. Amubone alimwi kalilo kanini mbukatantezya lusaka loonse.
6 And, the tongue, is a fire, —[as], the world of unrighteousness, the tongue, becometh fixed among our members, that which defileth the whole body and setteth on fire the wheel of our natural life, and is set on fire, by gehenna! (Geenna g1067)
Lulimi alulalo nkalilo, inyika yazibi ibikidwe mukkati kabamwi besu. Lulimi lubozeka mubili woonse, luumpa buumi boonse, alimwi alulalo lubikwa mumulilo mubbibi lyazibi. (Geenna g1067)
7 For, every nature—both of wild beasts and of birds, both of reptiles and of things in the sea, is to be tamed, and hath been tamed, by the human nature;
Nkambo woonse musyobo wamunyanyama wamulusaka, bayuni, tukwaba, azyuuka zyamulwizi zilivubidwe alimwi zilazyolololwa abantu.
8 But, the tongue, none of mankind can, tame, —A restless mischief! Full of deadly poison
Pesi kumakani alulimi, tawope muntu ukonzya kululamika lulimi. Nchintu chitalulamikiki, chizwide buyoka bujaya.
9 Therewith, are we blessing our Lord and Father, and, therewith, we are cursing the men who, after the likeness of God, have been brought into being!
Andulo lulimi tulalumbayizya Mwami wesu a Taata, alimwi tupa bantu milandu andulo, ibantu bakalengwa muchikozyano a Leza.
10 Out of the same mouth, come forth blessing and cursing! Not meet, my brethren, for, these things, thus, to be coming to pass!
Kuzwa mumulomo nguwo omwe kuzwa zilongezyo azisapi zyamilandu, Nobakwesu, eezi zintu tazyelede kunochitika pe.
11 Doth, the fountain, out of the same opening, teem forth the sweet and the bitter?
Sa ikasensa komwe kalazwa maanzi manono amanzi apanyuka?
12 Is it possible, my brethren, for, a fig-tree, to produce, olives, or, a vine, figs? Neither can, salt, water yield, sweet.
Imukkuyu ulachita na nobakwesu, kuzyala insikili? Kana kuti masansa, azyale nkuyu? Aalo manzi tachikonzeki pe kuti akasensa komwe kuzwe alweela amanzi alamunse munono.
13 Who is wise and well-instructed among you? Let him show, out of his comely behaviour, his works, in meekness of wisdom.
Alimwi ngwani musongo umvwisisisya aakati kenu? Mumuleke muntu oto atondeezye buumi bwakwe bubotu kwinda kumilimu yakwe mubuntu bwabusongo.
14 But, if, bitter jealousy, ye have, and rivalry, in your hearts; be not boasting and showing yourselves false against the truth!
Pesi kuti koli aabbivwe lipanyuka amakanze mumoyo wako, ulikankayizyi pe akubejela kasimpe.
15 This wisdom is not one, from above, coming down, but is earthly, born of the soul, demoniacal!
Obu tensi mbombubo pe busongo buza aansi kabuzwa kujulu. Pesi, tabukwe chintu, tabukwe muuya, buli amadimoni.
16 For, where jealousy and rivalry are, there, are anarchy and every ignoble deed.
Nkambo awo ali bbivwe alukazyanyo, nkokuko kuli lupyopyongano anchito zyabulozi.
17 But, the wisdom from above, is—first pure, then peaceable, reasonable, easy to be entreated, fraught with mercy and good fruits, without partiality, without hypocrisy.
Pesi busongo buzwa kujulu lutanzi bulasalala, alimwi mbwalumuuno, bulatontola, bulalibombya, mbwamiyeeyo mibotu, buzwide ilwetelelo amichelo mibotu, tabujisi lwanzano lwamoyo lwamoyo alimwi buli bwinibwini.
18 And, in harvest of righteousness, with peace, is sown by them that make peace.
Alimwi imichelo yabululami ilabyalwa muluumuno mukkati kabaabo bachita chalumuno.
