Romawa 4
1 La ba tok boki ye wo Ibraim, te be mor tebwiye fiya?
What shall we then say that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found?
2 No Ibraim fiya cerka fiye nangene ri ci kin fiyam ker kungka duwek, la kebo kabum Kwama.
For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath [whereof] to glory, but not before God.
3 La tak ye bifumro tok tiye? Ibraim ne bilenke Kwama nin, lan kiyeken cak-cake fiye ci wiye.
For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness.
4 Na weu nii wo ma nangen tiyeu, cuner cero mani a kiyeti na luma fiye ci wiye, la dike na ce.
Now to him that worketh, is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
5 La co wo manki nangeneu, lan ne bilenker nii wo cer no bwiran ker tiyeu, bilen ker cero kiye ken na cak-cake cinen.
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
6 Dauda tok ker bibwiyer dor nii wo Kwama kiye nii cak-cakeu, ki bwini nangene.
Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man to whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
7 La con toki, nob bibwiyereb nobo ci tab ciinen kero bwir ciyereu, buro bwirankereciyeu cumom-cumeu.
[Saying], Blessed [are] they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
8 Nii bibwiyere wo kibi duware ce Kwwama mani a kiye cinenke ce tiyeu.
Blessed [is] the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
9 La bibwiyero tokeu ki no dor nubo biyem te la'u ki kwa ci, kaka kange cii nubo biyebo te lareu? Wori bon tok kero, “bilenker Ibraim me kiye cak-cake dor cer.”
[Cometh] this blessedness then upon the circumcision [only], or upon the uncircumcision also? For we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.
10 La ci kiye co nyi? Ki bwiko Ibraim biyem tē lāre ce kaka co biyebo ka? Kebo mor biyeka, dila mor bwini biyeka te larek.
How then was it reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.
11 Ibraim yo yirom biye kam bo wuro co dokka kangek bilenkere co cike fiya ca biye beu. Co bibwiyer yiromero wo, dok co ca yilam tee nubo ne bilenkereu gwam. Bwen duwal ci biyebeu. Nyori dike nungeu a kiye cinen cak-cake.
And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith, which [he had yet] being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they are not circumcised, that righteousness might be imputed to them also;
12 Wori nungi con yilam tee nubo biyemeu buro kebo ka tē lā ceu biye meu dila kange nubo buro fuwaten naa ciyeti nur bilenker wo tee be Ibraim fuwau na nimre cii biyem tē lā ceu.
And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham which [he had] being [yet] uncircumcised.
13 Wori noro ma Ibraim min kange naniya ceko, can yilam nii kwali dor bitinero boubo werfuneronin la bou cak-cake wo wo bilenkerer mineu.
For the promise that he should be the heir of the world [was] not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
14 Nā nubo burona werfundo ceu nob kwalib di, bilenker manki diker, la noro dubangum.
For if they who are of the law [are] heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of no effect.
15 La werfunero ki bom nyo ki funer, la fiye ki bwini werfunere di fuwa ka nyalek man.
Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, [there is] no transgression.
16 Lawo kin bilenker na noro yi dor lumar ri na bwangten naniyak Ibraimek gwam, kebo ka nubo bwangten werfun tiye, dila kange nubo buro yilam ki bilenke Ibraime. Cin Tee be gwam,
Therefore [it is] of faith, that [it might be] by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed, not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all;
17 Kambo mulangum mulangeu, “min yonen na yilam tee bi tenni, kila kila”. Ibraim kino kabum nii co wo ci ciya cikeu, con Kwama, wo ne nubo bwiya meu dume tiyeu, na cwo diker maniyeu, na bou na no wi.
(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations) before him whom he believed, [even] God, who reviveth the dead, and calleth those things which are not, as though they were.
18 Wi yak kange dike bwiti bwiyeu, Ibraim ciya kange Kwama ki bi kwan neret dor kāba cek. La con yilam tee bi tenni kila-kilau kambo yim ceu,”Nyo naniyak mweko a yila tiye.”
Who against hope believed with hope, that he should become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.
19 Kebo ki yobka mor bilenker. Ibraim nyumom ki bwiceu dolbo bōka bwek (wori cor cero kiyang kwini kwob) kange ciraka fiye borek wice ko.
And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about a hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb.
20 La ker nore Kwamaro, Ibaim tintang bo mor bwini neke bilenker, lanyeu, con ma bikwan mor bilenker la con ne Kwama duktangka.
He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;
21 Co diim ki ciyaka Kwama ma cinen nor, la can di cinen.
And being fully persuaded, that what he had promised, he was able also to perform.
22 Lan kiye wo cak-cake cinen.
And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.
23 La kero wo kiye ci ne neu, mukang bo nace na dor ceroce ki kwāce.
Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him;
24 La mulangum ki bo ken. ki nii wo a kiye cinen tiye, bo nobo ba ne bilenker ki nii wo kung Yecu Tee luwe beu bwareu.
But for us also, to whom it will be imputed, if we believe on him that raised Jesus our Lord from the dead,
25 Won co wuro ci neken co ker bwiran kerebe, lan kung co na fang bo.
Who was delivered for our offenses, and raised again for our justification.
