1Bo Jems Gotonabë, Tako Ho Jisas Klaisnabë manawa wege ho. Bo some pasë ekë yahi nëkeketëyo. Sobo we ita tële Israelbë afenëbo lilife lilife mëta kë nibowai ekoujobë oneho. Sobo lale klijimu.James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes of the Dispersion: Greetings.

2O bobë, Jisasme kë lowene sle egletelobë afani na oneglëni, some tetëbo hobota wesibi fata mëgletëyona, na sobo kë wesibi hwi eglomona, kwe sobo kë wesibi mehwi eglomome, fleflesu wesibiwa.Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you encounter trials of many kinds,

3Këme nëgeme, sobo melowene egelome. Këha su kë nëgebëye some melëme olafa mëto, sobo Gotome lowene slemu laletelomu. Këha su some hobota eglibetemobëme laito na ebë life mago tetëbo lowene aholokwana ti elome.because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.

4Na hobota eglibetelobë afutuku bubë wege yawe malolole. Kwe sobo melë egelona, sobo hobota eglibetelowa egelona kwe sobo ebona flo egelome, na sobo Goto kë tole lëgletlebë lowenebëme hana afolo egelomemu.Allow perseverance to finish its work, so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

5Kwe loweneme yalë afololëglena, kwe bu Gotome takune lololeme, na lëlëme. Melëme nëgeme Goto bu tako fleflesumu lalële iniwa onehome lowene lëglëmebëme bu wame hana loglomeme.Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.

6Kwe bu Gotome melowene sle lëletleme bu lëgëtatenëme na mana takune lololeme. Lebutako lowenena asa takune malolole. Matëbemu. Fëyemene? Ho bu lebutako lowenena wesibime takune loglolena kwe bubë lowene haliji tu fenene melë asa malëletle.But he must ask in faith, without doubting, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.

7Bo some tutuneme gali nolëyo, sobo melë asa elo. Fëyemene? Këha lowenena ho Gotome wesibime takune loglolena, wesibi Tako Ho mago fa hana logotleme. Hanane mu. Bu melowene asa malëletle, “Goto bome wesibi lëglënëmefe.” Wëyewa.That man should not expect to receive anything from the Lord.

8Bu tële lowenena ho lëtabe. Këbë tële lowene bume kiki lalëbobukwake na bu këme nëgeme bu jowa lowene mëta fwa hana lëtabe.He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

9Jisasme kë lowene sle mëgletlabë afani na oneglëni, wesibi jwa nëgena kwe lalowa bu fleflesu matla. Goto bume mehwi loglomeme nëgeme, letitabo enëneha mëtabëyame.The brother in humble circumstances should exult in his high position.

10Jisasme kë lowene sle mëgletlabë oneho balitina kë nëgebë. Melëme, bu kwe fleflesu mëglame Jisas Klaisbë lokwalëfewa mëtabëa. Këme nëgeme bu iniwa wesibina bu kwe tëbo mëglitayame bu ti tahweji fene maklëfa mle na mitigo.But the one who is rich should exult in his low position, because he will pass away like a flower of the field.

11Bo megali, kliji bubë atëtena, lokwalena na kaka lëkekeme, bubë atëtena agosaba lakokowa lëtamëme, na bubë tahweji mata lamaklëfawa lëtamë na bubë tahweji laegëtikwawa na bubë lale weniyane latëbowa lëletë. Bu baliti ho fene, bu iniwa wege motla motla, kwe bu hokweinawa gigli mëglame. Këbë wesibi bubë kwe tëbo mëgletëmeme.For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its flower falls and its beauty is lost. So too, the rich man will fade away in the midst of his pursuits.

12Feilawa hobota onehome fata mëgletëmena na bu hobota mëglibetlawa mlame, kwe këha oneho bu fleflesu matla. Këme nëgemë. Tokwafe kwe Goto bume lale ëhwati tafa lëglëmeme. Goto bu megali sle wafi tle, “Bume kë tole mëgletlabë enëneme kë ëhwati tafa lëglëmeme.”Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him.

13Hobë tëbo lowene huju lëgëtatlena, bu melowene asa malële, “Goto bome tëbo lowene elë bu ki lëkake.” Weye. Tëbo lowene Gotome hana ki lëkakeme. Na Goto home, tëbo lowene elë hana ki lëkakeme.When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He tempt anyone.

14Kwe sebobë tëbo lowene kë nëgebëye, buwa seme tëbo lowene elë kiki lëbebokwake. Kë lowene tëbowa seme sosogëna lolona na kiki lëbebokwake, tëbo lakale nogotlabëme.But each one is tempted when by his own evil desires he is lured away and enticed.

15Bo gali nelë ebë waflë galime. Ebë tëbo lowene loglotle wame huju lëglena bu mëse nëba fene ehole. Na ke maninibo tëbo takowa na bu tetëbo wesibi lotle, na kë tetëbo wesibi logotlebëye, naglime fata lotle.Then after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.

16O bobë afanino na oneglënino, këbë maninibo tëbo some ki asa malëbebokwake.Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers.

17Iniwa lale lale wesibi kë glo nëglekefëyabë, kë heven life mago metujukefle. Klijina, yemena, sëgetobana, kë blëge togotomebë Aya, kë lale wesibi iniwa buwa seme lëtelëbakëkefëna. Kë Aya kë nëgebë bu lowene hihijika hana lëlekëfe. Bu kë nëgebë, kliji elulego mago amtëtomba fenene këha hana lële. Bu melëbë nane, heletabo lële na ita afluja lële, amtëtomba fenene. Weye. Goto bu melëgëtabekëfewa lalële.Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, with whom there is no change or shifting shadow.

18Bu melë bëme tole lële sebo bubë nëbale fene nëtabetla nëlame. Bu sebobë aya fene mefata lëletëname. Na bu kwe bubë nëgali galina seme jine lëlëtëna. Na sebobë maninibo kwe bu mëta fwa kesi mëleme. Na kë onehome Goto meaniji latlome bubë, bu wesibi blëge blëge totomena.He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we would be a kind of firstfruits of His creation.

19O bobë afanino na oneglënino. Sobo ebë wesibi salowene sle eletemo. Sobo iniwa aholo bo sle etome, na alabuju galina mana tafu etatemome na sobo hokweinawa momatame asa ëjuwetigo.My beloved brothers, understand this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger,

20Sobo enisusu asa elo matëbe, ho li hokweinawa enisusu lëglena bu Gotobë naba li mëta lale ho nane.for man’s anger does not bring about the righteousness that God desires.

21Këme nëgeme tetëbo lowene, sobobë lowene mëta kë fata mëglekefëtëyobë, aholokwana ti elome. Na flalego tafana Gotobë gali mana fa etlome. Goto kë gali somëta wafi gwa telutatëyo. Këbë gali kë nëgebë sobo lale unaunalëme ëhwati tafa këna fa egotlome.Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and every expression of evil, and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save your souls.

22Sobo Gotobë tafa sle gali aholonawa asa aholokwane elo. Weye. Sobo esogo esogo eglelëmome. Aholokwanewa egelona, kwe sobo sobolalo, kule kule lalelogo.Be doers of the word, and not hearers only. Otherwise, you are deceiving yourselves.

23Kwe ho li Gotobë tafa sle gali aholo nawa aholokwane lëglena na esogo hana lëglelëlena. Kwe ho bu weniyane tu mëta hwi loglolebë fenene.For anyone who hears the word but does not carry it out is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror,

24Bubë weniyane hwi lolole, kwe ita bu hokweinawa bubë weniyane lamëmëtewa lëkaketle. Bobë weniyane habetabone?and after observing himself goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.

25Kwe kë lale tafa sle gali kënegebëye, tëbo loweneha li hana lelube. Na bu tëbo loweneme boblo logotleme na seme ëhwati tafa lëlëname. Na ho li kë lale tafa sle gali hwi sle loglomena na esogo sle lëglelëmena na aholokwana hana ti lëglena kwe Goto sle logotometleme na lalowamu fata mëletleme.But the one who looks intently into the perfect law of freedom, and continues to do so—not being a forgetful hearer, but an effective doer—he will be blessed in what he does.

26Kwe ho li megali lëglena, “Bo lale Jisasme kë lowene sle nëgletelëbë ho na Gotobë lowenewa esogo sle nëglelëlëbë ho,” kwe bu bubë aleji ululu sle jwa logotlena kwe bu bume fwa kule kule lële. Këme nëgeme Gotome kë lotu lëgletlebë lowene, waiyo jwa këme lëbetle.If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not bridle his tongue, he deceives his heart and his religion is worthless.

27Jisasme kë lowene sle mëgletlabë onehobë lakale, Aya Gotobë naba lime lalowa lëgëbetëmebë, bu melë; Sebo flinëba nëbaleme inainagi nëglame. Na seiju oneme mata naitamame. Na bu hobota fa mogotlabëme na wesibi nëglëmabëme mata naitamame. Na li wesibi mata melë lëgëbelalële, sebo sebobë lakale ululu sle nëtagulame, ebë life mago tëbo lowene sebobë lale lowene, Gotobë naba lime lëlalë lëgëtatënalime.Pure and undefiled religion before our God and Father is this: to care for orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
