¹Macallimiin badan ha noqonina, walaalahayow, idinkoo garanaya inaynu heli doonno xukun ka sii weyn.

¹Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment.

²Waayo, dhammaanteen wax badan baynu ku gafnaa. Haddii nin ku gafi waayo hadalka, kaasu waa nin kaamil ah, wuuna xakamayn karaa jidhka oo dhan.

²For in many things we all stumble. If anyone doesn’t stumble in word, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also.

³Haddaba haddaynu fardaha afkooda xakame gelinno inay ina addeecaan, jidhkooda oo dhanna waynu jeedinnaa.

³Indeed, we put bits into the horses’ mouths so that they may obey us, and we guide their whole body.

⁴Ogaada, xataa doonniyaha, in kastoo ay waaweyn yihiin, oo dabaylo waaweynu kaxeeyaan, weliba waxaa loogu jeediyaa shukaan aad u yar meeshii ninka wada qushigiisu doonayo.

⁴Behold, the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires.

⁵Sidaas oo kalena carrabku waa qayb yar, waxyaalo waaweyn buuna ku faanaa. Bal eega dab yaru intuu qoryo shido.

⁵So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!

⁶Carrabkuna waa dab, waana dunida xaqdarrada. Carrabku wuxuu ku dhex jiraa xubnaheenna, waana kan wasakheeya jidhka oo dhan oo ololiya orodka abuurista, oo jahannamadu isagay ololisaa.

⁶And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna. or, Hell

⁷Cayn walba oo ah dugaag, iyo haad, iyo waxa bogga ku gurguurta, iyo waxa badda ku jiraba waa la rabbeeyaa, oo waxaa lagu rabbeeyey dabiicadda dadka.

⁷For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and thing in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind.

⁸Laakiin ninna ma rabbayn karo carrabka; waa shar rogrogmada, oo waxaa ka buuxda sunta wax disha.

⁸But nobody can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.

⁹Isla isagaynu ku ammaannaa Rabbiga iyo Aabbaha, oo isla isagaynu ku habaarnaa dadka Ilaah ekaantiisa laga abuuray.

⁹With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who are made in the image of God.

¹⁰Isku af baa waxaa ka soo baxa ammaan iyo habaar. Walaalahayow, waxyaalahanu waa inaanay sidaas noqon.

¹⁰Out of the same mouth comes forth blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.

¹¹Ishu miyey isku meel ka soo wada daysaa biyo macaan iyo kuwa qadhaadh?

¹¹Does a spring send out from the same opening fresh and bitter water?

¹²Walaalahayow, geed berde ahu miyuu dhali karaa saytuun, ama geed canab ahu miyuu dhali karaa midho berde ah? Sidaas oo kalena biyo dhanaanu macaan ma ay noqon karaan.

¹²Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh water.

¹³Kumaa idinku dhex jira oo xigmad iyo waxgarasho leh? Shuqulladiisa ha ku muujiyo dabiicaddiisa wanaagsan, isagoo leh qabowga xigmadda.

¹³Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.

¹⁴Haddaad xaasidnimo qadhaadh iyo iskala qaybqaybin ku haysataan qalbigiinna, ha faanina, runtana been ha ka sheegina.

¹⁴But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don’t boast and don’t lie against the truth.

¹⁵Xigmaddaasu ma aha tan kor ka soo degta, laakiin waa tan dhulka iyo nafta iyo jinniyada.

¹⁵This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic.

¹⁶Waayo, meeshii xaasidnimo iyo iskala qaybqaybinu ku jiraan, meeshaas waxaa ku jira iskuqasnaan iyo falniin kasta oo shar leh.

¹⁶For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.

¹⁷Laakiin xigmaddii kor ka timaadaa horta waa daahir, dabadeedna waa nabad iyo qabow iyo mid si dhib yar loola heshiiyo, oo waxaa ka buuxa naxariis iyo midho wanaagsan, mana leh u-kala-eexasho ama labaweji.Midhaha xaqnimada nabad waa loogu beeraa kuwa nabadda ka shaqeeya.

¹⁷But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.

¹⁸Midhaha xaqnimada nabad waa loogu beeraa kuwa nabadda ka shaqeeya.

¹⁸Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
