1 M y brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism.

Walaalahayow, iimaanka Rabbigeenna Ciise Masiix kan ammaanta leh eexasho ha ku haysanina.

2 F or if a man comes into your assembly with a gold ring and dressed in fine clothes, and there also comes in a poor man in dirty clothes,

Haddii nin kaatun dahab ah iyo dhar quruxsan qabaa shirkiinna soo galo, oo haddana haddii nin kale oo miskiin ah oo dhar uskag leh qabaa soo galo,

3 a nd you pay special attention to the one who is wearing the fine clothes, and say, “You sit here in a good place,” and you say to the poor man, “You stand over there, or sit down by my footstool,”

oo aad fiirisaan ka dharka quruxdasan qaba oo aad ku tidhaahdaan, Adigu kaalay oo halkan wanaagsan fadhiiso, oo aad ku tidhaahdaan ka miskiinka ah, Adigu xaggaas istaag ama halkan cagahayga ag fadhiiso,

4 h ave you not made distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil motives?

miyeydnaan kala qaybsamin oo miyeydnaan noqonin kuwa fikirrada sharka leh wax ku xukuma?

5 L isten, my beloved brethren: did not God choose the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?

I dhegaysta, walaalahayga aan jeclahayow. Miyaan Ilaah u dooran kuwa ah masaakiinta xagga dunida inay ahaadaan kuwa hodan ku ah rumaysadka oo dhaxla boqortooyaduu u ballanqaaday kuwa isaga jecel?

6 B ut you have dishonored the poor man. Is it not the rich who oppress you and personally drag you into court?

Laakiin idinku waad maamuus jebiseen miskiinkii. Taajiriintu miyaanay idin dulmin oo miyaanay idiin jiidin maxkamadda?

7 D o they not blaspheme the fair name by which you have been called?

Miyaanay caayin magaca wanaagsan oo laydiinku yeedhay?

8 I f, however, you are fulfilling the royal law according to the Scripture, “ You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing well.

Haddaba haddaad oofisaan sharciga boqornimada siduu Qorniinku leeyahay, Waa inaad deriskaaga u jeclaataa sida naftaada, si wanaagsan baad yeeshaan.

9 B ut if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

Laakiin haddaad dadka u kala eexataan waad dembaabtaan, oo sharcigu wuu idinku caddeeyey inaad tihiin kuwa xadgudbay.

10 F or whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.

Ku alla kii sharciga oo dhan xajiya oo qaynuun keliya ku gafa, kulli wuu ku eedaysan yahay.

11 F or He who said, “ Do not commit adultery,” also said, “ Do not commit murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery, but do commit murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

Waayo, kii yidhi, Ha sinaysan; wuxuu kaloo yidhi, Cidna ha dilin. Haddaanad sinaysanin laakiin aad dad disho, waxaad noqotay ku sharciga ku xadgudbay.

12 S o speak and so act as those who are to be judged by the law of liberty.

Sidii kuwo sharciga xorriyadda lagu xukumi doono, u hadla oo u yeela.

13 F or judgment will be merciless to one who has shown no mercy; mercy triumphs over judgment. Faith and Works

Xukunku naxariis uma leh kii aan dadka u naxariisan; naxariistu way ka faantaa xukunka. Rumaysadka Iyo Shuqullada

14 W hat use is it, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but he has no works? Can that faith save him?

Maxay tartaa, walaalahayow, haddii nin yidhaahdo, Rumaysad baan leeyahay, laakiin aanu shuqullo lahayn? Rumaysadku ma badbaadin karaa isaga?

15 I f a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food,

Walaal wiil ah ama walaal gabadh ah hadday arradan yihiin oo cuntadii maalinta u baahan yihiin,

16 a nd one of you says to them, “ Go in peace, be warmed and be filled,” and yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use is that?

oo midkiin ku yidhaahdo iyaga, Nabad gala, diirsada oo dherga, oo weliba aydnaan siin waxa jidhku u baahan yahay, maxay tartaa?

17 E ven so faith, if it has no works, is dead, being by itself.

Haddaba sidaas oo kale rumaysadku haddaanu shuqullo lahayn keli ahaantiisu waa meyd.

18 B ut someone may well say, “You have faith and I have works; show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith by my works.”

Laakiin waxaa la odhan doonaa, Adigu waxaad leedahay rumaysad, anna waxaan leeyahay shuqullo. I tus rumaysadkaaga aan shuqullada lahayn, anna rumaysadkayga shuqulladaydaan kugu tusi doonaa.

19 Y ou believe that God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and shudder.

Waad rumaysan tahay in Ilaah yahay mid keliya. Taas waad ku wanaagsan tahay. Xataa jinniyaduna sidaas way rumaysan yihiin, wayna gariiraan.

20 B ut are you willing to recognize, you foolish fellow, that faith without works is useless?

Doqonow, ma doonaysaa inaad garatid in rumaysadka aan shuqullada lahaynu aanu waxba tarin?

21 W as not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?

Miyaan awowgeen Ibraahim shuqullo lagu caddaynin inuu xaq yahay goortuu wiilkiisii Isxaaq meeshii allabariga ku bixiyey?

22 Y ou see that faith was working with his works, and as a result of the works, faith was perfected;

Waad garanaysaa in rumaysadku shuqulladiisii la shaqeeyey, oo rumaysadku kaamil ku noqday shuqullada.

23 a nd the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “ And Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness,” and he was called the friend of God.

Waxaa rumoobay Qorniinka leh, Ibraahimna Ilaah buu rumaystay, oo waxaa isaga loogu tiriyey xaqnimo, oo waxaa loogu yeedhay saaxiibkii Ilaah.

24 Y ou see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.

Waxaad garanaysaan in nin shuqullo lagu caddeeyo inuu xaq yahay oo aan lagu caddayn rumaysadka oo keliya.

25 I n the same way, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way?

Sidaas oo kale miyaan dhilladii Raxab ahayd shuqullo lagu caddayn inay xaq tahay kolkay soo dhowaysay basaasyadii oo ay jid kale u dirtay?

26 F or just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.

Sida jidhkii aan ruux lahaynu meyd u yahay, sidaas oo kaluu rumaysadkii aan shuqullo lahaynuna meyd u yahay.
