Яков 5
Библия, ревизирано издание
Предупреждение към богатите
5 (A)Елате сега, вие, богатите, плачете и ридайте поради бедствията, които идат върху вас.
2 (B)Богатството ви изгни и дрехите ви са изядени от молци.
3 (C)Златото ви и среброто ви ръждясаха; и ръждата им ще свидетелства против вас и ще изпояде месата ви като огън. Вие сте събирали съкровища в последните дни.
4 (D)Ето, заплатата за работниците, които са жънали нивите ви, от която ги лишихте, вика; и виковете на жътварите влязоха в ушите на Господа на Силите.
5 (E)Вие живяхте на земята разкошно и разпуснато, угоихте сърцата си като в ден на клане.
6 (F)Осъдихте, убихте Праведния; и Той не ви се противи.
Насърчаване към търпение
7 (G)И така, братя, останете търпеливи до Господнето пришествие. Ето, земеделецът очаква скъпоценния плод от земята и търпи за него, докато получи и ранния, и късния дъжд.
8 (H)Останете и вие търпеливи и укрепете сърцата си; защото Господнето пришествие наближи.
9 (I)Не роптайте един против друг, братя, за да не бъдете осъдени; ето, Съдията стои пред вратите.
10 (J)Братя, вземете за пример на злострадание и на търпение пророците, които говориха за Господнето име.
11 (K)Ето, облажаваме онези, които са останали търпеливи. Чули сте за търпението на Йов и сте видели сетнината, дадена му от Господа, че Господ е много жалостив и милостив.
12 (L)А преди всичко, братя мои, не се кълнете нито в небето, нито в земята, нито с друга някоя клетва; а нека вашето „да“ да бъде „да“ и вашето „не“ – „не“, за да не заслужите осъждане.
Усърдната молитва и изцелението
13 (M)Зле ли страда някой от вас, нека се моли. Весел ли е някой, нека пее хваления.
14 (N)Болен ли е някой от вас, нека повика църковните презвитери и нека се помолят над него и го помажат с елей в Господнето име.
15 (O)И молитвата, която е с вяра, ще избави страдалеца, Господ ще го привдигне и ако е извършил грехове, ще му се простят.
16 (P)И така, изповядайте един на друг греховете си и се молете един за друг, за да оздравеете. Голяма сила има усърдната молитва на праведния човек.
17 (Q)Илия беше човек със същото естество като нас; и се помоли усърдно да не вали дъжд, и не валя дъжд на земята три години и шест месеца;
18 (R)и пак се помоли и небето даде дъжд, и земята произведе плода си.
19 (S)Братя мои, ако някой от вас бъде отклонен от истината и един го обърне,
20 (T)нека знае, че който е обърнал грешния от заблудения му път, ще спаси една душа от смърт и ще покрие много грехове.
雅 各 書 5
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
对富人和自私的人的警告
5 你们这些富人，听着！你们要为就要降临到你们身上的苦难痛哭、悲伤。 2 你们的财富已腐烂；你们的衣物也被虫蛀； 3 你们的金、银生满了锈。那锈就是指控你们的证据；它将像火一样，吞吃你们的身体。你们是在末日里积蓄财富。 4 人们在你们的地里工作，但是你们却不付给他们报酬。那些为你们收庄稼的人在呼喊着控告你们。现在，万能的主已听到了他们的呼声。 5 你们在地上过着奢侈淫逸、纵情享乐的生活，你们就像牲畜一样养肥了自己，为屠宰的日子做好了准备。 6 你们给无辜的人定罪，并杀害他们，他们也没有反抗你们。
耐心
7 弟兄、姐妹们，你们要耐心地等待主耶稣的再次来临。农夫是耐心的，他等待着他的田里长出宝贵的庄稼；他耐心地等待着他的庄稼领受到秋雨和春霖。 8 你们也必须耐心等待，鼓起勇气，因为主耶稣即将来临。 9 兄弟们，不要彼此抱怨，免得你们被定罪。看啊，审判者就站在门口！ 10 弟兄们，要以奉主的名义讲话的先知为榜样，学习他们忍受痛苦的毅力。 11 因为他们忍耐了，所以我们说他们是有福的。你们听说过约伯的忍耐 [a]，知道在他所有的困苦之后，主成全了他。这表现出主是仁慈和怜悯的。
要谨慎你们的言谈
12 兄弟们，最主要的是，当你们许诺时，不要发誓，不可凭天、凭地或任何其它的东西发誓。当你们的意思是“是”时，就说“是”，如果“不是”时，就说“不是”。这样做，你们便不会受到上帝的审判。
祷告的力量
13 你们中间有遭遇到困难的吗？他应该祈祷。有喜乐的吗，他应该唱赞美歌。 14 你们中间有生病的吗？他应该请教会的长老为他祈祷，并以主的名义在他身上涂抹油膏。 15 怀着信仰所作的祷告会让病人康复。主会治愈他。如果他犯了罪，上帝会宽恕他。 16 要互相坦白自己的罪过，为彼此祈祷，以便上帝治愈你们。正义的人所做的祷告是会奏效的。 17 以利亚 [b]是像我们一样的人，他曾恳切祷告，求天不下雨，果然一连三年半之久没有下雨。 18 后来，他又祷告求雨，雨水便由天而降，地里又长出了庄稼。
帮助犯罪的人
19 我的兄弟们，你们当中如果有人偏离真理，就应有人帮他重归真理。 20 要记住这点：把罪人从错误道路上带回来的人，会把那个罪人从永恒的死亡里拯救出来，并且还使许多罪得到宽恕。

James 5
King James Version
5 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 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.
4 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.
5 Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.
6 Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.
7 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.
8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.
9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned: behold, the judge standeth before the door.
10 Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.
11 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.
12 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.
13 Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms.
14 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:
15 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.
16 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.
17 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.
18 And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.
19 Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him;
20 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.
James 5
New King James Version
Rich Oppressors Will Be Judged
5 Come now, you (A)rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you! 2 Your (B)riches [a]are corrupted, and (C)your garments are moth-eaten. 3 Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. (D)You have heaped up treasure in the last days. 4 Indeed (E)the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and (F)the cries of the reapers have reached the ears of the Lord of [b]Sabaoth. 5 You have lived on the earth in pleasure and [c]luxury; you have [d]fattened your hearts [e]as in a day of slaughter. 6 You have condemned, you have murdered the just; he does not resist you.
Be Patient and Persevering
7 Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain. 8 You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord [f]is at hand.
9 Do not [g]grumble against one another, brethren, lest you be [h]condemned. Behold, the Judge is standing at the door! 10 (G)My brethren, take the prophets, who spoke in the name of the Lord, as an example of suffering and (H)patience. 11 Indeed (I)we count them blessed who (J)endure. You have heard of (K)the perseverance of Job and seen (L)the end intended by the Lord—that (M)the Lord is very compassionate and merciful.
12 But above all, my brethren, (N)do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your “Yes” be “Yes,” and your “No,” “No,” lest you fall into [i]judgment.
Meeting Specific Needs(O)
13 Is anyone among you suffering? Let him (P)pray. Is anyone cheerful? (Q)Let him sing psalms. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, (R)anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. (S)And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. 16 [j]Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. (T)The effective, [k]fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. 17 Elijah was a man (U)with a nature like ours, and (V)he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months. 18 And he prayed (W)again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.
Bring Back the Erring One
19 Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone (X)turns him back, 20 let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way (Y)will save [l]a soul from death and (Z)cover a multitude of sins.
