Romawa 2

1 Nakima u na he ni sen nyu wu ndji u sharantawa, Nakima ikpi wa u si sharantawa nitu bari, u wuu tume ni tume. Nakima u sharantawa u si tie kpi bi yi ngame.

Therefore you are without excuse, O man, whoever you are who judge. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things.

2 Naki ki toh ndji i tron Irji a njanji ani ye joku ni biwa ba ti kpie baki.

We know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things.

3 Nakima ka toh wayi wu indji u sharanta ni biwa ti kpii, wume wu si ti me. Wu yah ndi wu gbujbu ni nfu Irji?

Do you think this, O man who judges those who practice such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgment of God?

4 Ko wu kpa ndindima tsri wa infu ma ni vu suron ana ye gbagbla na? Wuna toh ndji ndindima musama du nji wu hi ni ti njanji?

Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?

5 Aman sabo ni son tume ni suron me wa ana tie njanji na, wu si vu'u nfu ni sru ni tume ni vie u nfu, wato ivie u ye tron njanji u Irji.

But according to your hardness and unrepentant heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath, revelation, and of the righteous judgment of God,

6 Mi no ko nha ndi dede du ma wa ati'a.

who “will pay back to everyone according to their works:”

7 Ni bi wa ba you suron ni tie ndindi chachu'u ba wa nitu zu wo daraja ni drie u kakle. (aiōnios g166)

to those who by perseverance in well-doing seek for glory, honor, and incorruptibility, consummate (aiōnios g166) life;

8 Naki bi wa ba son tu, ni bi wa ba kamba ni njanji, ba ti biyaya ni rashi njanji, infu ni nfu rigra ni grji ni bawu.

but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath, indignation,

9 Irji ni grji ni iya meme ni shinji ne bi vri wawu wa bati meme, ni Yahudawa ni muimla ni Hellinawa.

oppression, and anguish on every soul of man who does evil, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

10 Nakima zuwo ni daraja ni sun si ba he ni bi wa basi ti ndu ndindi wa wu bawu, ni Yahudawa ni mumla, ni yi ni kpa nyime Irji.

But glory, honor, and peace go to every man who does good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

11 Mi ti titan toh yi, don mini noyi baiwa ri u ruhaniya mi ni noyi gbengblen.

For there is no partiality with God.

12 Wato misi ngyiri mi ni kpa gbengblen ni mi bi u njanji mbu wato u mu, u bi.

For as many as have sinned without the law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.

13 Ziza'a fa mina son du yi ka toh mri ya kpo gbugbu'u mi you suron ndi mi ye ni yi, naki har zizan'a koh na he na. Mi son ndi miti nakima, don mi ni samu mri u Ruhu ndindi ni mi mbi, na ahe ni mbru bi kora.

For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law will be justified

14 Mi ban yah Helinawa ni baba u mbru ndji bi toh ni bi wa bana toh na.

(for when Gentiles who do not have the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are a law to themselves,

15 Ni naki tie mba rju he ni kora ndi tron'a he nimi suron mba. U mi dri mba ngame ahi sheda ni bawu, u tunani mba ko ka vu ba ni meme ko ka kri ngba ni bawu

in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying with them, and their thoughts among themselves accusing or else excusing them)

16 u ni Irji ngame. Ani he naki ni vi wa Irji ni rju ni mi dri ba ndji wawu'u ni kora, ni tu nkon u tre Ma, ni Yesu Kristi.

in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my Good News, by Jesus Christ.

17 Nakima wu si you tume ndi wu uhi Bayahude, wu sun ni tu tron, ndi ni wru wo ni san ni mi Irji.

Indeed you bear the name of a Jew, rest on the law, glory in God,

18 Wu toh mre ma, ndi toh kpi wa ba he ni nkanka naki, kuma u kpa bla ni mi tron.

know his will, and approve the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law,

19 Naki wu he ni gabagadi nitu ndi wu u vu wo ni bi fie, ndi kpah ni bi wa ba he ni mi bu'u.

and are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,

20 Gbi ton ni wa ana he ni toh na, u tsro ni mri bi tsitsa, u andi ni mi tron wu he ni kpi wa a shafi toh ni kuma njanji, u nihe ikpe yi ahe ni mi son me?

a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babies, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth.

21 Bi yi wa tsro bari, bina tsro tumbi na? Bi wa bi tre na tie y'bi na, bina y'bi?

You therefore who teach another, do not you teach yourself? You who preach that a man should not steal, do you steal?

22 Biyi wa bi tre duba na tie ntran na, bina ni tie ntran na? Biyi bi tre duba na ti gumaka na, bina tie gumaka na? Biyi wa bi tre duba na tie y'bi na, bina y'bi sessren me na?

You who say a man should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?

23 Biyi wa bi ngyiri nimi tron, bina kpa Irji tsri ni mi lah tree u wa ba hu tron na?

You who glory in the law, do you dishonor God by disobeying the law?

24 Naki ba kpa nde Irji tie meme ni mi bi kora nitu mbi.

For “the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,” just as it is written.

25 Gbi gbi you grji ana he ni mah ma ni yi. Inde bi kiyaye doka, aman inde bi yi wa bina hu doka na, you grji bi akam ti na ana you grji na.

For circumcision indeed profits, if you are a doer of the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

26 Nakima inde ndji wa bana you grji ni u na, ani kiyaye bukatu tron wawu'u bana iya ban wa bana you grji ni wu ni matsayi wa ba you grji niwu?

If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, will not his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision?

27 Nakima inde ndji wa ba you grji ni wu na u yi ani kiyaye dokoki ba wawu, ana yah sharanta yi bi you grji u tron na? Naki a he inde bi hei ni tron ba nha, aman ana hu tron na.

Will not those who are physically uncircumcised, but fulfill the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law?

28 Naki wawu na hi Bayahude ni ra na, ana wa ba you grji nda han tan na

For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh;

29 Naki a Bayahude u mi, naki me ba yo grji u suron mba Ruhu ndindi ana ibe na, bibi ndji kima ana ndji ni zu wo ni u na, se Irji.

but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.
