OET-LV YAC Chapter 1

Note that the OET uses ‘Yacob’ for ‘The Letter of Jacob’ (wrongly called ‘James’ in older Bibles).

This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.

1 Yakōbos/(Yaˊₐqoⱱ), of_god and of_the_master Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) chosen _one /messiah, twelve, a_slave to _the tribes which are in the dispersion:
to _be _greeting.
2 All joy consider it, brothers of _me, whenever trials you _all _may _fall _among various, 3 knowing that the proving of _you _all the faith is _producing endurance.
4 And the endurance work its_perfect let _be _having, in _order _that you _all _may _be perfect and complete, in nothing lacking.
5 But if anyone of _you _all is _lacking of _wisdom, him _let _be _requesting from the one giving, god, to _all generously, and not deriding, and it _will _be _being _given to _him.
6 But him _let _be _requesting in faith, nothing doubting, because/for the one doubting is _like to_a_wave of_the_sea, being _blown and being _tossed.
7 For/Because not let _be _supposing the person that that he _will _be _receiving anything from the master, 8 a_man double-minded, disturbance in all the ways of _him.
9 And let _be _boasting the brother the humble, in the height of _him, 10 and the rich, in the humiliation of _him, because like a_flower of_the_grass he _will _be _passing _away.
11 For/Because rose the sun with its scorching _heat, and withered the grass, and the flower of _it fell _from, and the beauty of _the appearance of _it perished.
Thus also the rich man among the pursuits of _him will _be _being _faded _away.
12 Blessed is the_man who is _enduring trial, because approved having _become, he _will _be _receiving the crown of_ the _life, that he _promised to _the ones loving him.
13 No _one being _tempted let _be _saying, that By god I _am _being _tempted.
For/Because the god untemptable is by _evil, and is _tempting he no _one.
14 But each is _being _tempted by his own lust, being _drawn _away and being _enticed.
15 Thereafter the desire having _conceived is _bearing sin, and the sin having _been _finished _out, is _bringing _forth death.
16 Not be _being _misled, brothers of _me beloved.
17 Every giving good, and every gift perfect from _above is, coming _down from the father of_ the _lights, with whom not there _is variation or of _shifting shadow.
18 Having _been _wished it, he _brought _forth us by_the_message of _truth, in _order that to _be us first-fruit a_certain of _the of _him creatures.
19 Be _having /_known, brothers of _me beloved.
But let _be every person quick in _order that to _hear, slow in _order that to _speak, slow to anger, 20 for/because the_severe _anger of_a_human, the_righteousness of_god not is _producing.
21 Therefore having _put _away all filthiness and abundance of _evil, in gentleness receive the implanted message, the one being _able to _save the souls of _you _all.
22 And be _becoming doers of_the_message, and not only listeners deluding yourselves.
23 Because if anyone a_listener of_the_message is, and not a_doer, this one is _like to _man observing his face of_ the _existence of _him in a_mirror.
24 For/Because he _observed himself and has _gone _away, and immediately he _forgot what _kind he _was.
25 But the one having _investigated into the_law perfect, the law of_ the _freedom, and having _continued _with it, not a_listener of _forgetful having _become, but a_doer of_the_work, this one blessed in the doing of _him will _be.
26 If anyone is _supposing religious to _be, not bridling the_tongue of _himself, but seducing the_heart of _him, of _this one useless is his religion.
27 Religion pure and undefiled before our god and father this is:
to _be _visiting orphans and widows in the tribulation of _them, spotless himself to _be _keeping from the world.
