雅各書 5

嗐！你們這些富足人哪，應當哭泣、號咷，因為將有苦難臨到你們身上。

hài ！ nǐ men zhè xiē fù zú rén nǎ ， yīng dāng kū qì 、 hào táo ， yīn wèi jiāng yǒu kǔ nàn lín dào nǐ men shēn shàng 。

Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming on you.

你們的財物壞了，衣服也被蟲子咬了。

nǐ men de cái wù huài le ， yī fu yě bèi chóng zǐ yǎo le 。

Your riches are corrupted and your garments are moth-eaten.

你們的金銀都長了銹；那銹要證明你們的不是，又要吃你們的肉，如同火燒。你們在這末世只知積攢錢財。

nǐ men de jīn yín dōu cháng le xiù ； nà xiù yào zhèng míng nǐ men de bú shì ， yòu yào chī nǐ men de ròu ， rú tóng huǒ shāo 。 nǐ men zài zhè mò shì zhī zhī jī zǎn qián cái 。

Your gold and your silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be for a testimony against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up your treasure in the last days.

工人給你們收割莊稼，你們虧欠他們的工錢，這工錢有聲音呼叫，並且那收割之人的冤聲已經入了萬軍之主的耳了。

gōng rén gěi nǐ men shōu gē zhuāng jia ， nǐ men kuī qiàn tā men de gōng qián ， zhè gōng qián yǒu shēng yīn hū jiào ， bìng qiě nà shōu gē zhī rén de yuān shēng yǐ jīng rù le wàn jūn zhī zhǔ de ěr le 。

Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you have kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Armies.

你們在世上享美福，好宴樂，當宰殺的日子竟嬌養你們的心。

nǐ men zài shì shàng xiǎng měi fú ， hǎo yàn lè ， dāng zǎi shā de rì zi jìng jiāo yǎng nǐ men de xīn 。

You have lived in luxury on the earth, and taken your pleasure. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter.

你們定了義人的罪，把他殺害，他也不抵擋你們。

nǐ men dìng le yì rén de zuì ， bǎ tā shā hài ， tā yě bù dǐ dǎng nǐ men 。

You have condemned and you have murdered the righteous one. He doesn’t resist you.

弟兄們哪，你們要忍耐，直到主來。看哪，農夫忍耐等候地裏寶貴的出產，直到得了秋雨春雨。

dì xiong men nǎ ， nǐ men yào rěn nài ， zhí dào zhǔ lái 。 kàn nǎ ， nóng fū rěn nài děng hòu dì lǐ bǎo guì de chū chǎn ， zhí dào dé le qiū yǔ chūn yǔ 。

Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receives the early and late rain.

你們也當忍耐，堅固你們的心，因為主來的日子近了。

nǐ men yě dāng rěn nài ， jiān gù nǐ men de xīn ， yīn wéi zhǔ lái de rì zi jìn le 。

You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

弟兄們，你們不要彼此埋怨，免得受審判。看哪，審判的主站在門前了。

dì xiong men ， nǐ men bú yào bǐ cǐ mán yuàn ， miǎn de shòu shěn pàn 。 kàn nǎ ， shěn pàn de zhǔ zhàn zài mén qián le 。

Don’t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you won’t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.

弟兄們，你們要把那先前奉主名說話的眾先知當作能受苦能忍耐的榜樣。

dì xiong men ， nǐ men yào bǎ nà xiān qián fèng zhǔ míng shuō huà de zhòng xiān zhī dàng zuò néng shòu kǔ néng rěn nài de bǎng yàng 。

Take, brothers, for an example of suffering and of perseverance, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.

那先前忍耐的人，我們稱他們是有福的。你們聽見過約伯的忍耐，也知道主給他的結局，明顯主是滿心憐憫，大有慈悲。

nà xiān qián rěn nài de rén ， wǒ men chēng tā men shì yǒu fú de 。 nǐ men tīng jiàn guò yuē bó de rěn nài ， yě zhī dào zhǔ gěi tā de jié jú ， míng xiǎn zhǔ shì mǎn xīn lián mǐn ， dà yǒu cí bēi 。

Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and have seen the Lord in the outcome, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.

我的弟兄們，最要緊的是不可起誓；不可指着天起誓，也不可指着地起誓，無論何誓都不可起。你們說話，是，就說是；不是，就說不是，免得你們落在審判之下。

wǒ de dì xiong men ， zuì yào jǐn de shì bù kě qǐ shì ； bù kě zhǐ zhe tiān qǐ shì ， yě bù kě zhǐ zhe dì qǐ shì ， wú lùn hé shì dōu bù kě qǐ 。 nǐ men shuō huà ， shì ， jiù shuō shì ； bú shì ， jiù shuō bú shì ， miǎn de nǐ men luò zài shěn pàn zhī xià 。

But above all things, my brothers, don’t swear—not by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your “yes” be “yes”, and your “no”, “no”, so that you don’t fall into hypocrisy.

你們中間有受苦的呢，他就該禱告；有喜樂的呢，他就該歌頌。

nǐ men zhōng jiān yǒu shòu kǔ de ne ， tā jiù gāi dǎo gào ； yǒu xǐ lè de ne ， tā jiù gāi gē sòng 。

Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises.

你們中間有病了的呢，他就該請教會的長老來；他們可以奉主的名用油抹他，為他禱告。

nǐ men zhōng jiān yǒu bìng le de ne ， tā jiù gāi qǐng jiào huì de zhǎng lǎo lái ； tā men kě yǐ fèng zhǔ de míng yòng yóu mǒ tā ， wèi tā dǎo gào 。

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

出於信心的祈禱要救那病人，主必叫他起來；他若犯了罪，也必蒙赦免。

chū yú xìn xīn de qí dǎo yào jiù nà bìng rén ， zhǔ bì jiào tā qǐ lái ； tā ruò fàn le zuì ， yě bì méng shè miǎn 。

and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

所以你們要彼此認罪，互相代求，使你們可以得醫治。義人祈禱所發的力量是大有功效的。

suǒ yǐ nǐ men yào bǐ cǐ rèn zuì ， hù xiāng dài qiú ， shǐ nǐ men kě yǐ dé yī zhì 。 yì rén qí dǎo suǒ fā de lì liàng shì dà yǒu gōng xiào de 。

Confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.

以利亞與我們是一樣性情的人，他懇切禱告，求不要下雨，雨就三年零六個月不下在地上。

yǐ lì yà yǔ wǒ men shì yí yàng xìng qíng de rén ， tā kěn qiè dǎo gào ， qiú bú yào xià yǔ ， yǔ jiù sān nián líng liù gè yuè bú xià zài dì shàng 。

Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain, and it didn’t rain on the earth for three years and six months.

他又禱告，天就降下雨來，地也生出土產。

tā yòu dǎo gào ， tiān jiù jiàng xià yǔ lái ， dì yě shēng chū tǔ chǎn 。

He prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.

我的弟兄們，你們中間若有失迷真道的，有人使他回轉，

wǒ de dì xiong men ， nǐ men zhōng jiān ruò yǒu shī mí zhēn dào de ， yǒu rén shǐ tā huí zhuǎn ，

Brothers, if any among you wanders from the truth and someone turns him back,

這人該知道：叫一個罪人從迷路上轉回便是救一個靈魂不死，並且遮蓋許多的罪。

zhè rén gāi zhī dào ： jiào yí gè zuì rén cóng mí lù shang zhuǎn huí biàn shì jiù yí gè líng hún bù sǐ ， bìng qiě zhē gài xǔ duō de zuì 。

let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.
