رُوما 1

١ 1 بُولُسُ، عَبْدٌ لِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، ٱلْمَدْعُوُّ رَسُولًا، ٱلْمُفْرَزُ لِإِنْجِيلِ ٱللهِ،

Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,

٢ 2 ٱلَّذِي سَبَقَ فَوَعَدَ بِهِ بِأَنْبِيَائِهِ فِي ٱلْكُتُبِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَةِ،

which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,

٣ 3 عَنِ ٱبْنِهِ. ٱلَّذِي صَارَ مِنْ نَسْلِ دَاوُدَ مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلْجَسَدِ،

concerning his Son, who was descended from David according to the flesh

٤ 4 وَتَعَيَّنَ ٱبْنَ ٱللهِ بِقُوَّةٍ مِنْ جِهَةِ رُوحِ ٱلْقَدَاسَةِ، بِٱلْقِيَامَةِ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ: يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ رَبِّنَا.

and who was declared to be the Son of God in power according to the Spirit of holiness by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,

٥ 5 ٱلَّذِي بِهِ، لِأَجْلِ ٱسْمِهِ، قَبِلْنَا نِعْمَةً وَرِسَالَةً، لِإِطَاعَةِ ٱلْإِيمَانِ فِي جَمِيعِ ٱلْأُمَمِ،

through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the Gentiles,

٦ 6 ٱلَّذِينَ بَيْنَهُمْ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا مَدْعُوُّو يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

including you who are also called to belong to Jesus Christ;

٧ 7 إِلَى جَمِيعِ ٱلْمَوْجُودِينَ فِي رُومِيَةَ، أَحِبَّاءَ ٱللهِ، مَدْعُوِّينَ قِدِّيسِينَ: نِعْمَةٌ لَكُمْ وَسَلَامٌ مِنَ ٱللهِ أَبِينَا وَٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

to all who are in Rome, beloved by God and called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

٨ 8 أَوَّلًا، أَشْكُرُ إِلَهِي بِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ مِنْ جِهَةِ جَمِيعِكُمْ، أَنَّ إِيمَانَكُمْ يُنَادَى بِهِ فِي كُلِّ ٱلْعَالَمِ.

First, I give thanks to my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world.

٩ 9 فَإِنَّ ٱللهَ ٱلَّذِي أَعْبُدُهُ بِرُوحِي، فِي إِنْجِيلِ ٱبْنِهِ، شَاهِدٌ لِي كَيْفَ بِلَا ٱنْقِطَاعٍ أَذْكُرُكُمْ،

For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that I continually remember you,

١٠ 10 مُتَضَرِّعًا دَائِمًا فِي صَلَوَاتِي عَسَى ٱلْآنَ أَنْ يَتَيَسَّرَ لِي مَرَّةً بِمَشِيئَةِ ٱللهِ أَنْ آتِيَ إِلَيْكُمْ.

always pleading in my prayers that somehow by God's will I may now at last succeed in coming to you.

١١ 11 لِأَنِّي مُشْتَاقٌ أَنْ أَرَاكُمْ، لِكَيْ أَمْنَحَكُمْ هِبَةً رُوحِيَّةً لِثَبَاتِكُمْ،

For I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, that you may be established,

١٢ 12 أَيْ لِنَتَعَزَّى بَيْنَكُمْ بِٱلْإِيمَانِ ٱلَّذِي فِينَا جَمِيعًا، إِيمَانِكُمْ وَإِيمَانِي.

that is, that while I am among you we may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine.

١٣ 13 ثُمَّ لَسْتُ أُرِيدُ أَنْ تَجْهَلُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ أَنَّنِي مِرَارًا كَثِيرَةً قَصَدْتُ أَنْ آتِيَ إِلَيْكُمْ، وَمُنِعْتُ حَتَّى ٱلْآنَ، لِيَكُونَ لِي ثَمَرٌ فِيكُمْ أَيْضًا كَمَا فِي سَائِرِ ٱلْأُمَمِ.

I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that I have often intended to come to you (but have been hindered until the present time) so that I might have some fruit among you as well, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.

١٤ 14 إِنِّي مَدْيُونٌ لِلْيُونَانِيِّينَ وَٱلْبَرَابِرَةِ، لِلْحُكَمَاءِ وَٱلْجُهَلَاءِ.

I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish;

١٥ 15 فَهَكَذَا مَا هُوَ لِي مُسْتَعَدٌّ لِتَبْشِيرِكُمْ أَنْتُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي رُومِيَةَ أَيْضًا،

thus the eagerness on my part to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.

١٦ 16 لِأَنِّي لَسْتُ أَسْتَحِي بِإِنْجِيلِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، لِأَنَّهُ قُوَّةُ ٱللهِ لِلْخَلَاصِ لِكُلِّ مَنْ يُؤْمِنُ: لِلْيَهُودِيِّ أَوَّلًا ثُمَّ لِلْيُونَانِيِّ.

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, both to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

١٧ 17 لِأَنْ فِيهِ مُعْلَنٌ بِرُّ ٱللهِ بِإِيمَانٍ، لِإِيمَانٍ، كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ: «أَمَّا ٱلْبَارُّ فَبِٱلْإِيمَانِ يَحْيَا».

For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith, just as it is written, “The righteous will live by faith.”

١٨ 18 لِأَنَّ غَضَبَ ٱللهِ مُعْلَنٌ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ عَلَى جَمِيعِ فُجُورِ ٱلنَّاسِ وَإِثْمِهِمِ، ٱلَّذِينَ يَحْجِزُونَ ٱلْحَقَّ بِٱلْإِثْمِ.

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth by their unrighteousness.

١٩ 19 إِذْ مَعْرِفَةُ ٱللهِ ظَاهِرَةٌ فِيهِمْ، لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ أَظْهَرَهَا لَهُمْ،

Because what is known about God is evident among them, for God has made it evident to them.

٢٠ 20 لِأَنَّ أُمُورَهُ غَيْرَ ٱلْمَنْظُورَةِ تُرىَ مُنْذُ خَلْقِ ٱلْعَالَمِ مُدْرَكَةً بِٱلْمَصْنُوعَاتِ، قُدْرَتَهُ ٱلسَّرْمَدِيَّةَ وَلَاهُوتَهُ، حَتَّى إِنَّهُمْ بِلَا عُذْرٍ. (aïdios g126)

For his invisible qualities, both his everlasting power and his divinity, have been plainly seen from the creation of the world, being perceived through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. (aïdios g126)

٢١ 21 لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمَّا عَرَفُوا ٱللهَ لَمْ يُمَجِّدُوهُ أَوْ يَشْكُرُوهُ كَإِلَهٍ، بَلْ حَمِقُوا فِي أَفْكَارِهِمْ، وَأَظْلَمَ قَلْبُهُمُ ٱلْغَبِيُّ.

For although they knew God, they did not glorify him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their thoughts, and their senseless hearts were darkened.

٢٢ 22 وَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّهُمْ حُكَمَاءُ صَارُوا جُهَلَاءَ،

Claiming to be wise, they became fools

٢٣ 23 وَأَبْدَلُوا مَجْدَ ٱللهِ ٱلَّذِي لَا يَفْنَى بِشِبْهِ صُورَةِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَفْنَى، وَٱلطُّيُورِ، وَٱلدَّوَابِّ، وَٱلزَّحَّافَاتِ.

and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man, birds, four-footed animals, and reptiles.

٢٤ 24 لِذَلِكَ أَسْلَمَهُمُ ٱللهُ أَيْضًا فِي شَهَوَاتِ قُلُوبِهِمْ إِلَى ٱلنَّجَاسَةِ، لِإِهَانَةِ أَجْسَادِهِمْ بَيْنَ ذَوَاتِهِمِ.

Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,

٢٥ 25 ٱلَّذِينَ ٱسْتَبْدَلُوا حَقَّ ٱللهِ بِٱلْكَذِبِ، وَٱتَّقَوْا وَعَبَدُوا ٱلْمَخْلُوقَ دُونَ ٱلْخَالِقِ، ٱلَّذِي هُوَ مُبَارَكٌ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. آمِينَ. (aiōn g165)

because they exchanged the truth of God for falsehood and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

٢٦ 26 لِذَلِكَ أَسْلَمَهُمُ ٱللهُ إِلَى أَهْوَاءِ ٱلْهَوَانِ، لِأَنَّ إِنَاثَهُمُ ٱسْتَبْدَلْنَ ٱلٱسْتِعْمَالَ ٱلطَّبِيعِيَّ بِٱلَّذِي عَلَى خِلَافِ ٱلطَّبِيعَةِ،

For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions, for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is contrary to nature.

٢٧ 27 وَكَذَلِكَ ٱلذُّكُورُ أَيْضًا تَارِكِينَ ٱسْتِعْمَالَ ٱلْأُنْثَى ٱلطَّبِيعِيَّ، ٱشْتَعَلُوا بِشَهْوَتِهِمْ بَعْضِهِمْ لِبَعْضٍ، فَاعِلِينَ ٱلْفَحْشَاءَ ذُكُورًا بِذُكُورٍ، وَنَائِلِينَ فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ جَزَاءَ ضَلَالِهِمِ ٱلْمُحِقَّ.

In the same way the men also, having abandoned the natural function of the female, were inflamed in their lust for one another, men committing shameful acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.

٢٨ 28 وَكَمَا لَمْ يَسْتَحْسِنُوا أَنْ يُبْقُوا ٱللهَ فِي مَعْرِفَتِهِمْ، أَسْلَمَهُمُ ٱللهُ إِلَى ذِهْنٍ مَرْفُوضٍ لِيَفْعَلُوا مَا لَا يَلِيقُ.

And just as they considered it worthless to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a worthless mind, to do what is not proper.

٢٩ 29 مَمْلُوئِينَ مِنْ كُلِّ إِثْمٍ وَزِنًا وَشَرٍّ وَطَمَعٍ وَخُبْثٍ، مَشْحُونِينَ حَسَدًا وَقَتْلًا وَخِصَامًا وَمَكْرًا وَسُوءًا،

They are filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, evil, covetousness, and malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and maliciousness. They are gossips,

٣٠ 30 نَمَّامِينَ مُفْتَرِينَ، مُبْغِضِينَ لِلهِ، ثَالِبِينَ مُتَعَظِّمِينَ مُدَّعِينَ، مُبْتَدِعِينَ شُرُورًا، غَيْرَ طَائِعِينَ لِلْوَالِدَيْنِ،

slanderers, haters of God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents,

٣١ 31 بِلَا فَهْمٍ وَلَا عَهْدٍ وَلَا حُنُوٍّ وَلَا رِضًى وَلَا رَحْمَةٍ.

senseless, untrustworthy, without natural affection, irreconcilable, and unmerciful.

٣٢ 32 ٱلَّذِينَ إِذْ عَرَفُوا حُكْمَ ٱللهِ أَنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ مِثْلَ هَذِهِ يَسْتَوْجِبُونَ ٱلْمَوْتَ، لَا يَفْعَلُونَهَا فَقَطْ، بَلْ أَيْضًا يُسَرُّونَ بِٱلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ.

Though they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things deserve death, they not only do them but also approve of those who practice them.
