< Ŵaloma 2 >

1 Kwayele, mmwe mwajangu, iŵaga nkwalamula ŵane ngankombola kulichenjela natamuno mme ŵaani. Pakuŵa, pankwalamula ŵane akuno nomwe nkwendelechela kuipanganya iyoyo, nkulilamula mwasyene.
Wherefore thou art without excuse, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest dost practise the same things.
2 Nowe tukumanyilila kuti ulamule wa Akunnungu uli wa usyene kwa aŵala ŵakuitendekanya indu yanti yeleyo.
And we know that the judgment of God is according to truth against them that practise such things.
3 Nambo alakwe junkwalamula ŵakuitendekanya yeleyo ni mwasyene nkuitendekanya iyoyo peyo. Ana nkuganisya chinchiuŵambala ulamule wa Akunnungu?
And reckonest thou this, O man, who judgest them that practise such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?
4 Pane nkuunyelusya umbone wekulu wa Akunnungu ni utulale ni upililiu wao, uli ngankuimanyilila kuti umbone wa Akunnungu ukunnongosya kuti nneche sambi?
Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
5 Nambo mmwe nkakatime ntima ni nkwete ntima wangasaka kuleka sambi, kwa ligongo lyo nkuligosela mwasyene magambo pa lyuŵa lya Akunnungu lya lutumbilo lwao ni kulamula kwao kwa chigolochelo pachikulolechele.
but after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up for thyself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;
6 Pakuŵa Akunnungu chachinlipa jwalijose malinga ni masengo gakwe.
who will render to every man according to his works:
7 Ŵandu ŵakuitendekanya yambone pangali kupela akuno achisosaga ukulu ni kusichila ni umi wangaukujonasika, Akunnungu chachapa ŵandu ŵa, umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōnios g166)
to them that by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honour and incorruption, eternal life: (aiōnios g166)
8 Nambo aŵala ŵalipamo, aŵala ŵakuukanila usyene, ni kuikuya yangalumbana, isyene Akunnungu chachalamula kwa lutumbilo ni uchimwa wakwe wekulu.
but unto them that are factious, and obey not the truth, but obey unrighteousness, [shall be] wrath and indignation,
9 Chigapagwe masauko ni kulaga kwa jwalijose jwakuitendekanya yangalumbana, kutandila kwa Ŵayahudi ni sooni kwa ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi.
tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that worketh evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Greek;
10 Nambo jwalijose jwakutendekanya yambone, Akunnungu chachimpa ukulu ni luchimbichimbi ni chitendewele, kutandila kwa Ŵayahudi ni sooni kwa ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi.
but glory and honour and peace to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek:
11 Pakuŵa Akunnungu ŵangali lusagu.
for there is no respect of persons with God.
12 Ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ŵangakugamanyilila Malajisyo ga che Musa chasochele pangagamanyilila Malajisyo go. Ni Ŵayahudi ŵakugamanyilila Malajisyo ali nkutenda sambi chalamulikwe ni Malajisyo go.
For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned under law shall be judged by law;
13 Pakuŵa, ŵakugapilikana Malajisyo ngaŵa ŵakuŵalanjikwa ŵambone paujo pa Akunnungu, nambo aŵala ŵakugajitichisya Malajisyo ni ŵakuŵalanjikwa ŵambone paujo pa Akunnungu.
for not the hearers of a law are just before God, but the doers of a law shall be justified:
14 Pakuŵa ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ŵangakugamanyilila Malajisyo, nambo pakutenda indu kwa lwendo lwapagwile nawo chisau ni yaitite pakulamulikwa mmalajisyo, achinsyene wo akulosya kuti akumanyilila chakusachilwa kupanganya namuno nganagamanyilila Malajisyo go.
for when Gentiles which have no law do by nature the things of the law, these, having no law, are a law unto themselves;
15 Pakuŵa lwendo lwao lukulosya kuti Malajisyo galembekwe mu mitima jao. Miningwa jao jikulosya kuti au uli usyene, pakuŵa ng'anisyo syao sikwaŵechetela kuti atesile yangalumbana pane sikwachenjela kuti atesile yambone.
in that they shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness therewith, and their thoughts one with another accusing or else excusing [them];
16 Yeleyo ni ichikopochele pa lyuŵa litachilamula Akunnungu yantemela ya ŵandu, kwa litala li Che Yesu Kilisito mpela Ngani Jambone jinanlalichile ijikuti pakusala.
in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men, according to my gospel, by Jesus Christ.
17 Ni mmwe junkuliŵilanga Myahudi, nkugakulupilila Malajisyo ni kulifunila ndi mundu jwa Akunnungu,
But if thou bearest the name of a Jew, and restest upon the law, and gloriest in God,
18 nkulitenda kuti nkumanyilila yaikwanonyela Akunnungu ni kwitichisya indu yao yambone pakuŵa nyiganichikwe ni Malajisyo.
and knowest his will, and approvest the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law,
19 Nkuliganichisya mwasyene kuti ndi chilongola jwa ŵangalola ni lilanguka lyao ŵaali mu chipi,
and art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them that are in darkness,
20 junkwaunda ŵakuloŵela ni njiganyo jwa ŵanache achanandi. Pakuŵa nkuganisya mu Malajisyo nkwete umanyilisi ni usyene.
a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babes, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth;
21 Nipele mmweji junkwajiganya ŵane, ana kwa chichi ngankulijiganya mwasyene? Mmweji junkwalalichila ŵane nkajiŵa kwachichi mwasyene nkwiŵa?
thou therefore that teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?
22 Mmweji junkusala, “Nkatenda chikululu,” kwachichi mwasyene nkutenda chikululu? Nkuichima inyago ya achiminungu, kwachichi mwasyene nkwinjila ni kwiŵa indu mu majumba ga achiminungu?
thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou rob temples?
23 Nkulilapa kuti nkugamanyilila Malajisyo ga Akunnungu nambo nkunjalusya Akunnungu pankuleka kugakamulisya Malajisyo go!
thou who gloriest in the law, through thy transgression of the law dishonourest thou God?
24 Pakuŵa mpela yagakuti kusala Malembelo ga Akunnungu, “Ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi akulitukana liina lya Akunnungu kwa ligongo lya agala gankugatenda ŵanyamwe Ŵayahudi.”
For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you, even as it is written.
25 Kuumbala kwenu chikuŵe ni malumbo iŵaga chingajitichisye Malajisyo. Nambo iŵaga nkugapwanya Malajisyo, mbaya ngankaumbale.
For circumcision indeed profiteth, if thou be a doer of the law: but if thou be a transgressor of the law, thy circumcision is become uncircumcision.
26 Ni iŵaga ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ŵanganaumbale akugakamulichisya Malajisyo, uli ungaumbala wao ngauŵilanjikwa uumbale?
If therefore the uncircumcision keep the ordinances of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be reckoned for circumcision?
27 Ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ŵanganaumbale mu chiilu, nambo akugakamulichisya Malajisyo, chanlamule ŵanyamwe Ŵayahudi pakuŵa ngankugajitichisya Malajisyo namose nkugamanyilila Malajisyo gamalembekwe ni ndi ŵaumbale.
and shall not the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfill the law, judge thee, who with the letter and circumcision art a transgressor of the law?
28 Myahudi jwa usyene ngaŵa ajula jwakuloleka kwa meeso, atamuno mundu ngakuŵa Myahudi jwa usyene pakuŵa aumbele mu chiilu.
For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29 Nambo Myahudi jwa usyene ni ajula jwali jwati iyoyo nkati, malumbo gakwe ajula jwaumbele mu ntima. Kuumbala kusyene kuli, Mbumu jwa Akunnungu akukupanganya mu ntima mwa mundu, ni ngaŵa kwa malembo ga Malajisyo. Nambo mundu jwati yeleyi ngaakulapikwa ni ŵandu nambo akulapikwa ni Akunnungu.
but he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
