1 PBBR Umpan't ume utukng'a ge badaru ge batangkar da tarjadi ka antara im u'? Inya dakoh brasal umpan't hawa nafsumu' da baparang ka sadan't angota-angota unganmu'? BSB BSB: What causes conflicts and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from the passions at war within you?
2 PBBR Imu' ngate sasuatu, tapi kati kaan't'a, maka imu' ngamis. Imu' iri ate ge kati kaan't jai da mu' amput, maka imu' badaru ge batangkar. Imu' kati kaan't karna imu' kati mahi. BSB BSB: You crave what you do not have; you kill and covet, but are unable to obtain it. You quarrel and fight. You do not have, because you do not ask.
3 PBBR Ato, imu' mahi, tapi kati kaan't karna imu' mahi nige alasan da sara', dakohta ya' mamuas hawa nafsumu.' BSB BSB: And when you do ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may squander it on your pleasures.
4 PBBR He, ayo kupm da suka babayu, kati' mu' pane bahwa bakawan nige' dunia bararti bamusuh nige Jabata? Sa' dakoh, asi pun da ngate bakawan nige' dunia, ini' umas adup'a musuh Jabata. BSB BSB: You adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore, whoever chooses to be a friend of the world renders himself an enemy of God.
5 PBBR Kupm mungkin bapikir Kitab Suci kati' ani alasan muji', "Roh da Jabata manak kasadatn adup te' Ini' ngate nige rasa supa."? BSB BSB: Or do you think the Scripture says without reason that the Spirit He caused to dwell in us yearns with envy?
6 PBBR Namun, Jabata mangkat anugrah-A da rabeh agi'. Kitab Suci muji, "Jabata manantang sok da sumbong, tapi mangkat anugrah-A ka sok da randah ate." BSB BSB: But He gives us more grace. This is why it says: “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
7 PBBR Sak lakoh, nyarahlah adupmu' ka Jabata. Ngalawanlah sitan, pasti ini' ao' boho umpat'n imu.' BSB BSB: Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
8 PBBR Ngariketlah adupmu' ka Jabata, maka Ini' pasti ngariket imu'. Marasihlah barekmu'. He ayo sok baduse, ge ngamurnilah atemu', he ayo kupm da mandua ate. BSB BSB: Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
9 PBBR Munse'lah, badukalah, ge marataplah; tea'lah gulukmu' jadi unse' ge' ripo atemu' jadi dukacita. BSB BSB: Grieve, mourn, and weep. Turn your laughter to mourning, and your joy to gloom.
10 PBBR Ngarandahlah atemu' ka hadapan Tuhan, maka Ini' ao' ninggimu'. BSB BSB: Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will exalt you.
11 PBBR Ayo-age iya saling nyansana hal da jahe ka antaramu'. Sok da muji' da jahe tantang age'a ato manghakimi age'a, muji' malawan hukum ge manghakimi hukum. Kalo imu' manghakimi hukum, imu' inyalah palaku hukum, malainkan hakim'a. BSB BSB: Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. And if you judge the law, you are not a practitioner of the law, but a judge of it.
12 PBBR Hanya ani nyiteng pamangkan't Hukum ge Hakim, dakoh Ini' da kaan't nyalamat ge mambinasakan; asilah imu' sahingga imu' manghakimi samu ka adupmu'? BSB BSB: There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the One who is able to save and destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?
13 PBBR Mati', dangahtalah hei imu' da nyansana, "Ano diah ato jakap kai aok anu ka kota diah ge dakoh, madi ka teen't salama' nyataun, badagakng, ge kaan't baruntong," BSB BSB: Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business, and make a profit.” 14 PBBR padahal imu' kati pane jai da aok terjadi jakap. Jailah arti idupmu' dakoh samu rada da tile sabantar, ge lakadakoh lala BSB BSB: You do not even know what will happen tomorrow! What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.
15 PBBR Jadi, imu' saharus'a nyansana "Sa Tuhan da ngadu, kai aok idup ge umas diah ato dakoh," BSB BSB: Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord is willing, we will live and do this or that.”
16 PBBR Tapi mati' imu' bangga ka sadan't dasumbong; kabangaan samu dakoh diu'ta da jahe. BSB BSB: As it is, you boast in your proud intentions. All such boasting is evil.
17 PBBR Jadi, sa ayo-sok pane langkina umas bait, tapi kati gan't ngalaku, ini' baduse. BSB BSB: Anyone, then, who knows the right thing to do, yet fails to do it, is guilty of sin.
