James 5

He! ianareo manan-karena, mitomania sy midradradradrà noho ny fahoriana izay efa manjo anareo.

Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.

Ny harenareo efa simba, ary ny fitafianareo efa lanin'ny kalalao.

Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.

Ny volamena sy ny volafotsinareo dia efa harafesina; ary ny harafesiny dia ho vavolombelona hiampanga anareo sady handany ny nofonareo tahaka ny afo. Efa namory harena amin'ny andro farany ianareo.

Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

Indro, ny karaman'ny mpiasa nijinja ny taninareo, izay hazoninareo, dia mitaraina; ary ny fitarainan'ny mpijinja dia efa tafiditra amin'ny sofin'ny Tompon'ny maro.

Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.

Efa velona tamin'ny fy tetỳ ambonin'ny tany ianareo sady nanaram-po tamin'ny fahafinaretana; efa namahy ny fonareo tamin'ny andro hamonoana ianareo.

Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

Efa nanameloka namono ny marina ianareo; fa tsy manohitra anareo izy.

Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.

Ary amin'izany dia mahareta tsara, ry rahalahy, mandra-pihavin'ny Tompo. Indro, ny mpiasa tany miandry ny voka-tsoa amin'ny tany ka maharitra amin'izany mandra-pahazony ny ranonorana aloha sy aoriana.

Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.

Mahareta koa ianareo, mampahereza ny fonareo, fa efa mby akaiky ny fihavian'ny Tompo.

Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.

Aza mifampimonomonona, ry rahalahy, fandrao hohelohina ianareo; Indro, ny Mpitsara efa mitsangana eo anoloan'ny varavarana.

Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned: behold, the judge standeth before the door.

Ry rahalahiko, aoka ny mpaminany izay niteny tamin'ny anaran'ny Tompo no halainareo ho fianarana ny fandeferam-pahoriana sy ny faharetana.

Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.

Indro, ataontsika fa sambatra izay efa naharitra. Efa renareo ny faharetan'i Joba ary efa hitanareo ny faran'ny nataon'ny Tompo taminy, fa miantra indrindra ny Tompo sady be famindram-po.

Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.

Fa mihoatra noho ny zavatra rehetra, ry rahalahiko, aza mianiana, na amin'ny lanitra, na amin'ny tany, na amin'izay fianianana hafa akory aza; fa aoka ny fanaikinareo ho "Eny", ary ny fandànareo ho "Tsia", fandrao hiharan'ny fitsarana ianareo.

But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation.

Misy azom-pahoriana va eo aminareo? Aoka izy hivavaka. Misy faly va? Aoka izy hihira fiderana.

Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms.

Misy marary va eo aminareo? Aoka izy hampaka ny loholon'ny fiangonana; ary aoka hanosotra diloilo azy amin'ny anaran'ny Tompo ireo sady hivavaka eo aminy;

Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:

ary ny fivavaky ny finoana dia hamonjy ilay marary, fa ny Tompo hanangana azy; ary raha nanota izy, dia havela ny helony.

And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

Koa mifaneke heloka ianareo, ary mifampivavaha, mba ho sitrana ianareo. Ny fiàsan'ny fivavaky ny marina dia mahery indrindra.

Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Elia dia olona tahaka antsika ihany, ary izy nahery nivavaka mba tsy hilatsahan'ny ranonorana; dia tsy nilatsaka tamin'ny tany ny ranonorana telo taona sy enim-bolana.

Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.

Ary nivavaka indray izy, dia nandatsaka ranonorana ny lanitra, ka nahavokatra ny tany.

And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.

Ry rahalahiko, raha misy eo aminareo miala amin'ny fahamarinana, ary misy anankiray mampibebaka azy,

Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him;

aoka ho fantany fa izay mampibebaka ny mpanota hiala amin'ny lalan'ny fahadisoany dia hamonjy fanahy tsy ho faty sady hanarona heloka be.

Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.
