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 yoʋ are without excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For on whatever grounds yoʋ judge another, yoʋ condemn yoʋrself, for yoʋ who judge do the same things.
2 Naki ki toh ndji i tron Irji a njanji ani ye joku ni biwa ba ti kpie baki.
Now we know that the judgment of God against those who do such things is in accordance with truth.
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 yoʋ suppose, O man—yoʋ who judge those who do such things and yet do them yoʋrself—that yoʋ 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 yoʋ despise the riches of his kindness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the kindness of God leads yoʋ 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 yoʋr stubbornness and yoʋr unrepentant heart, yoʋ are storing up wrath for yoʋrself on the day of wrath, revelation, and the righteous judgment of God,
6 Mi no ko nha ndi dede du ma wa ati'a.
who will repay each person according to his 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 patient endurance in good works seek glory, honor, and immortality, he will give eternal life; (aiōnios g166)
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 for those who are self-seeking and obey unrighteousness instead of the truth, there will be anger and wrath.
9 Irji ni grji ni iya meme ni shinji ne bi vri wawu wa bati meme, ni Yahudawa ni muimla ni Hellinawa.
There will be tribulation and distress for everyone who does evil, the Jew first and also 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 there will be glory, honor, and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also 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 all who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who 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, by nature do what is required by the law, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law.
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
They show that what the law requires is written in their hearts, as their conscience bears witness with them and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even defend 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.
on the day when, according to my gospel, God will judge the secret thoughts of men through 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.
Behold, yoʋ call yoʋrself a Jew and rely on the law and boast in God.
18 Wu toh mre ma, ndi toh kpi wa ba he ni nkanka naki, kuma u kpa bla ni mi tron.
Yoʋ know his will and approve what is excellent, because yoʋ are instructed from 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 yoʋ have confidence that yoʋ yoʋrself are a guide for the blind, a light for 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?
an instructor of the foolish, and a teacher of children, because yoʋ have in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth.
21 Bi yi wa tsro bari, bina tsro tumbi na? Bi wa bi tre na tie y'bi na, bina y'bi?
Yoʋ then who teach others, do yoʋ not teach yoʋrself? Yoʋ who preach against stealing, do yoʋ 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?
Yoʋ who tell others not to commit adultery, do yoʋ commit adultery? Yoʋ who abhor idols, do yoʋ rob temples?
23 Biyi wa bi ngyiri nimi tron, bina kpa Irji tsri ni mi lah tree u wa ba hu tron na?
Yoʋ who boast in the law, do yoʋ dishonor God by transgressing the law?
24 Naki ba kpa nde Irji tie meme ni mi bi kora nitu mbi.
As it is written, “The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.”
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.
Circumcision does indeed benefit yoʋ if yoʋ observe the law, but if yoʋ transgress the law, yoʋr 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 then an uncircumcised man keeps the ordinances of the law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded 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.
Then he who is physically uncircumcised and carries out the law will judge yoʋ who, despite having the letter of the law and circumcision, transgress 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 circumcision something 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 a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter. Such a man's praise comes not from men but from God.
