James 3
1 Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment.
he mama bhraatara. h, "sik. sakairasmaabhi rgurutarada. n.do lapsyata iti j naatvaa yuuyam aneke "sik. sakaa maa bhavata|
2 For we all stumble in many things. Anyone who doesn’t stumble in word is a perfect person, able to bridle the whole body also.
yata. h sarvve vaya. m bahuvi. saye. su skhalaama. h, ya. h ka"scid vaakye na skhalati sa siddhapuru. sa. h k. rtsna. m va"siikarttu. m samartha"scaasti|
3 Indeed, we put bits into the horses’ mouths so that they may obey us, and we guide their whole body.
pa"syata vayam a"svaan va"siikarttu. m te. saa. m vaktre. su khaliinaan nidhaaya te. saa. m k. rtsna. m "sariiram anuvarttayaama. h|
4 Behold, the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires.
pa"syata ye potaa atiiva b. rhadaakaaraa. h praca. n.davaatai"sca caalitaaste. api kar. nadhaarasya mano. abhimataad atik. sudre. na kar. nena vaa nchita. m sthaana. m pratyanuvarttante|
5 So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!
tadvad rasanaapi k. sudrataraa"nga. m santii darpavaakyaani bhaa. sate| pa"sya kiid. r"nmahaara. nya. m dahyate. alpena vahninaa|
6 And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
rasanaapi bhaved vahniradharmmaruupapi. s.tape| asmada"nge. su rasanaa taad. r"sa. m santi. s.thati saa k. rtsna. m deha. m kala"nkayati s. r.s. tirathasya cakra. m prajvalayati narakaanalena jvalati ca| (Geenna g1067)
7 For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and sea creature is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind;
pa"supak. syurogajalacaraa. naa. m sarvve. saa. m svabhaavo damayitu. m "sakyate maanu. sikasvabhaavena damayaa ncakre ca|
8 but nobody can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
kintu maanavaanaa. m kenaapi jihvaa damayitu. m na "sakyate saa na nivaaryyam ani. s.ta. m halaahalavi. se. na puur. naa ca|
9 With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men who are made in the image of God.
tayaa vaya. m pitaram ii"svara. m dhanya. m vadaama. h, tayaa ce"svarasya saad. r"sye s. r.s. taan maanavaan "sapaama. h|
10 Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
ekasmaad vadanaad dhanyavaada"saapau nirgacchata. h| he mama bhraatara. h, etaad. r"sa. m na karttavya. m|
11 Does a spring send out from the same opening fresh and bitter water?
prasrava. na. h kim ekasmaat chidraat mi. s.ta. m tikta nca toya. m nirgamayati?
12 Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh water.
he mama bhraatara. h, u. dumbarataru. h ki. m jitaphalaani draak. saalataa vaa kim u. dumbaraphalaani phalitu. m "saknoti? tadvad eka. h prasrava. no lava. nami. s.te toye nirgamayitu. m na "saknoti|
13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.
yu. smaaka. m madhye j naanii subodha"sca ka aaste? tasya karmmaa. ni j naanamuulakam. rdutaayuktaaniiti sadaacaaraat sa pramaa. nayatu|
14 But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don’t boast and don’t lie against the truth.
kintu yu. smadanta. hkara. namadhye yadi tikter. syaa vivaadecchaa ca vidyate tarhi satyamatasya viruddha. m na "slaaghadhva. m nacaan. rta. m kathayata|
15 This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic.
taad. r"sa. m j naanam uurddhvaad aagata. m nahi kintu paarthiva. m "sariiri bhautika nca|
16 For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.
yato hetoriir. syaa vivaadecchaa ca yatra vedyete tatraiva kalaha. h sarvva. m du. sk. rta nca vidyate|
17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
kintuurddhvaad aagata. m yat j naana. m tat prathama. m "suci tata. h para. m "saanta. m k. saantam aa"susandheya. m dayaadisatphalai. h paripuur. nam asandigdha. m ni. skapa. ta nca bhavati|
18 Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
"saantyaacaaribhi. h "saantyaa dharmmaphala. m ropyate|
