Jak 3
Nouvo Testaman: Vèsyon Kreyòl Fasil
Genyen kontwòl sou pawòl nou
3 Frè m ak sè m yo, se pa yon pil nan nou ki dwe anseye. Mwen di sa paske, kòm nou konnen, nou menm k ap anseye, jijman pa nou ap pi rèd pase jijman pa lòt yo.
2 Nou tout fè anpil fot. Si yon moun pa janm fè fot an pawòl, se yon moun ki pafè. Li kapab gen kontwòl sou tout kò li. 3 Nou mete mò nan bouch chwal yo, pou fè yo obeyi nou. Konsa nou kapab dirije tout kò yo. 4 Gade bato yo! Yo gwo, epi se gwo van ki gen anpil fòs ki fè yo mache. Poutan, se avèk yon ti moso bwa yo dirije yo epi yo ale kote pilòt la vle. 5 Lang nou se menm jan an. Se yon pati ki tou piti nan kò a. Poutan, li kapab fè lwanj kantite gwo bagay li lakoz.
Gade sa, yon ti dife tou piti kapab boule yon gwo rak bwa. 6 Lang lan tou, se kòm yon ti dife, se ladan nou jwenn tout sa ki pa bon. Li se yon pati nan kò nou, epi se li ki sal tout kò nou nèt. Lang nou mete dife nan lavi nou, depi nou fèt jouk tan nou mouri. Dife sa a, se dife lanfè a ki nan lang lan.
7 Lèzòm kapab fè tout kalite zannimo obeyi yo: bèt sovaj, zwazo, sèpan epi pwason. 8 Men lang lan sovaj, pèsòn pa ka fè l obeyi! Li yon move bagay li ye, li plen ak yon pwazon ki bay lanmò. 9 Avèk lang nou, nou chante louwanj pou Senyè a, Papa nou. Avèk lang nou tou, nou modi moun yo Bondye te kreye dapre limaj li. 10 Benediksyon ak malediksyon soti nan menm bouch la! Frè m ak sè m yo, sa pa dwe konsa! 11 Èske yon sèl sous kapab bay dlo dous ak dlo anmè an menm tan? 12 Èske yon pye fig kapab donnen zoliv? Èske ou kapab keyi fig sou yon pye rezen? Se menm jan an tou, yon sous dlo sale pa kapab bay dlo dous.
Bon sajès la
13 Èske gen moun pami nou ki reyèlman saj, yon moun ki vrèman gen bon konprann? Alò, li dwe manifeste sa nan yon bon konpòtman, nan sa l ap fè avèk imilite epi ak sajès. 14 Men si w gen nan kè w yon jalouzi anmè, yon lanvi egoyis ak lanbisyon, pa fè lwanj di ou saj. Pa bay manti konsa! 15 Sajès sa a, se pa nan syèl li soti. Li soti sou latè, se sajès lèzòm, se yon sajès dyabolik. 16 Paske, kote k gen jalouzi ak lanbisyon pou pase devan lòt moun, sa fè dezòd ansanm ak tout move zak. 17 Men, sajès ki soti nan syèl la, li soti nan yon kè ki pwòp. Epi l ap pote lapè ak dousè. L ap chache ini moun. Li plen ak bonte. Li fè anpil bon bagay. Li pa nan patipri, li pa ipokrit. 18 Moun ki renmen simen lapè toupatou kote yo ye, gen pou yo rekòlte fui la jistis.

Taming the Tongue
3 Not many of you should become teachers,(A) my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged(B) more strictly.(C) 2 We all stumble(D) in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say(E) is perfect,(F) able to keep their whole body in check.(G)
3 When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal.(H) 4 Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go. 5 Likewise, the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts.(I) Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. 6 The tongue also is a fire,(J) a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body,(K) sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.(L)
7 All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles and sea creatures are being tamed and have been tamed by mankind, 8 but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.(M)
9 With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse human beings, who have been made in God’s likeness.(N) 10 Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be. 11 Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? 12 My brothers and sisters, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs?(O) Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.
Two Kinds of Wisdom
13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it(P) by their good life, by deeds(Q) done in the humility that comes from wisdom. 14 But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition(R) in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth.(S) 15 Such “wisdom” does not come down from heaven(T) but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic.(U) 16 For where you have envy and selfish ambition,(V) there you find disorder and every evil practice.
17 But the wisdom that comes from heaven(W) is first of all pure; then peace-loving,(X) considerate, submissive, full of mercy(Y) and good fruit, impartial and sincere.(Z) 18 Peacemakers(AA) who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.(AB)

Taming the Tongue
3 (A)Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness. 2 For (B)we all stumble in many ways. And if anyone does not stumble in what he says, (C)he is a perfect man, (D)able also to bridle his whole body. 3 If we put (E)bits into the mouths of horses so that they obey us, we guide their whole bodies as well. 4 Look at the ships also: though they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs. 5 So also the tongue is a small member, yet (F)it boasts of great things.
How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire! 6 And (G)the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, (H)staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life,[a] and set on fire by hell.[b] 7 For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by mankind, 8 but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, (I)full of deadly poison. 9 With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people (J)who are made in the likeness of God. 10 From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers,[c] these things ought not to be so. 11 Does a spring pour forth from the same opening both fresh and salt water? 12 Can a fig tree, my brothers, bear olives, or a grapevine produce figs? Neither can a salt pond yield fresh water.
Wisdom from Above
13 Who is wise and understanding among you? (K)By his good conduct let him show his works (L)in the meekness of wisdom. 14 But if you have bitter (M)jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. 15 This is not (N)the wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, (O)demonic. 16 For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice. 17 But (P)the wisdom from above is first pure, then (Q)peaceable, gentle, open to reason, (R)full of mercy and good fruits, (S)impartial and (T)sincere. 18 And (U)a harvest of righteousness (V)is sown in peace by those who make peace.
