James 1 - Listen Online

¹ JAKỌBU, iranṣẹ Ọlọrun ati ti Jesu Kristi Oluwa, si awọn ẹ̀ya mejila ti o túka kiri, alafia.

¹ James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

² Ẹnyin ará mi, nigbati ẹnyin ba bọ́ sinu onirũru idanwò, ẹ kà gbogbo rẹ̀ si ayọ;

² My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;

³ Ki ẹ si mọ̀ pe, idanwò igbagbọ́ nyin nṣiṣẹ sũru.

³ Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

⁴ Ṣugbọn ẹ jẹ ki sũru ki o ṣe iṣẹ aṣepé, ki ẹnyin ki o le jẹ pipe ati ailabuku, ki o má kù ohun kan fun ẹnikẹni.

⁴ But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

⁵ Bi o ba kù ọgbọn fun ẹnikẹni, ki o bère lọwọ Ọlọrun, ẹniti ifi fun gbogbo enia ni ọ̀pọlọpọ, ti kì isi ibaniwi; a o si fifun u.

⁵ If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

⁶ Ṣugbọn ki o bère ni igbagbọ́, li aiṣiyemeji rara. Nitori ẹniti o nṣiyemeji dabi ìgbi omi okun, ti nti ọwọ́ afẹfẹ bì siwa bì sẹhin ti a si nrú soke.

⁶ But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.

⁷ Nitori ki iru enia bẹ̃ máṣe rò pe, on yio ri ohunkohun gbà lọwọ Oluwa;

⁷ For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

⁸ Enia oniyemeji jẹ alaiduro ni ọ̀na rẹ̀ gbogbo.

⁸ A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

⁹ Ṣugbọn jẹ ki arakunrin ti iṣe talaka mã ṣogo ni ipo giga rẹ̀.

⁹ Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:

¹⁰ Ati ọlọrọ̀, ni irẹ̀silẹ rẹ̀, nitori bi itanná koriko ni yio kọja lọ.

¹⁰ But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.

¹¹ Nitori õrun là ti on ti õru mimu, o si gbẹ koriko, itanná rẹ̀ si rẹ̀ danu, ẹwà oju rẹ̀ si parun: bẹ̃ pẹlu li ọlọrọ̀ yio ṣegbe ni ọ̀na rẹ̀.

¹¹ For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.

¹² Ibukún ni fun ọkunrin ti o fi ọkàn rán idanwò: nitori nigbati o ba yege, yio gbà ade ìye, ti Oluwa ti ṣe ileri fun awọn ti o fẹ ẹ.

¹² Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

¹³ Ki ẹnikẹni ti a danwò máṣe wipe, Lati ọwọ́ Ọlọrun li a ti dán mi wò: nitori a kò le fi buburu dán Ọlọrun wò, on na kì isi idán ẹnikẹni wò:

¹³ Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:

¹⁴ Ṣugbọn olukuluku ni a ndanwò, nigbati a ba ti ọwọ́ ifẹkufẹ ara rẹ̀ fà a lọ ti a si tàn a jẹ.

¹⁴ But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

¹⁵ Njẹ, ifẹkufẹ na nigbati o ba lóyun, a bí ẹ̀ṣẹ: ati ẹ̀ṣẹ na nigbati o ba si dagba tan, a bí ikú.

¹⁵ Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

¹⁶ Ki a má ṣe tan nyin jẹ, ẹnyin ará mi olufẹ.

¹⁶ Do not err, my beloved brethren.

¹⁷ Gbogbo ẹ̀bun rere ati gbogbo ẹ̀bun pipé lati oke li o ti wá, o si nsọkalẹ lati ọdọ Baba imọlẹ wá, lọdọ Ẹniti kò le si iyipada tabi ojiji àyida.

¹⁷ Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

¹⁸ Nipa ifẹ ara rẹ̀ li o fi ọ̀rọ otitọ bí wa, ki awa ki o le jẹ bi akọso awọn ẹda rẹ̀.

¹⁸ Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

¹⁹ Ẹnyin mọ eyi, ẹnyin ará mi olufẹ; ṣugbọn jẹ ki olukuluku enia ki o mã yara lati gbọ́, ki o lọra lati fọhùn, ki o lọra lati binu:

¹⁹ Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

²⁰ Nitori ibinu enia kì iṣiṣẹ ododo Ọlọrun.

²⁰ For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

²¹ Nitorina ẹ fi gbogbo ẽri ati buburu aṣeleke lelẹ li apakan, ki ẹ si fi ọkàn tutù gbà ọ̀rọ na ti a gbin, ti o le gbà ọkàn nyin là.

²¹ Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.

²² Ṣugbọn ki ẹ jẹ oluṣe ọ̀rọ na, ki o má si ṣe olugbọ́ nikan, ki ẹ mã tàn ara nyin jẹ.

²² But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

²³ Nitori bi ẹnikan ba jẹ olugbọ́ ọ̀rọ na, ti kò si jẹ oluṣe, on dabi ọkunrin ti o nṣakiyesi oju ara rẹ̀ ninu awojiji:

²³ For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

²⁴ Nitori o ṣakiyesi ara rẹ̀, o si ba tirẹ̀ lọ, lojukanna o si gbagbé bi on ti ri.

²⁴ For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.

²⁵ Ṣugbọn ẹniti o ba nwo inu ofin pipé, ofin omnira nì, ti o si duro ninu rẹ̀, ti on kò jẹ olugbọ́ ti ngbagbé, bikoṣe oluṣe iṣẹ, oluwarẹ̀ yio jẹ alabukun ninu iṣẹ rẹ̀.

²⁵ But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

²⁶ Bi ẹnikẹni ba ro pe on nsìn Ọlọrun nigbati kò kó ahọn rẹ̀ ni ijanu, ṣugbọn ti o ntàn ọkàn ara rẹ̀ jẹ, ìsin oluwarẹ̀ asan ni.

²⁶ If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

²⁷ Ìsin mimọ́ ati ailẽri niwaju Ọlọrun ati Baba li eyi, lati mã bojutó awọn alainibaba ati awọn opó ninu ipọnju wọn, ati lati pa ara rẹ̀ mọ́ lailabawọn kuro li aiyé.

²⁷ Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
