Jo-Rumi 1
1 An Paulo, misumba Yesu Kristo, mane oluongi mondo obed jaote, kendo nowala mondo ayal Injili mar Nyasaye.
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the Good News of God,
2 Injilini nosingo chon gi dho jonabi e Muma Maler;
which he promised before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,
3 kowuoyo kuom Wuode, ma en Yesu Kristo Ruodhwa ma en nyakwar Daudi kuom ringruok.
concerning his Son, who was born of the offspring of David according to the flesh,
4 To kuom Roho Maler nonyis ratiro ni en Wuod Nyasaye, nikech teko mane ochierego koa kuom joma otho, ma en Yesu Kristo Ruodhwa.
who was declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,
5 Kuome kendo e nyinge ema waseyudoe ngʼwono gi teko mar bedo joote, mondo wami ogendini duto oyie kuome kendo oluore.
through whom we received grace and apostleship for obedience of faith among all the nations for his name’s sake;
6 To un bende un e kanyakla achiel gi jogo moseluongi mondo ubed jo-Yesu Kristo.
among whom you are also called to belong to Jesus Christ;
7 Ni ji duto man Rumi, ma Nyasaye ohero kendo oluongo mondo obed jomaler: Ngʼwono gi kwe moa kuom Nyasaye Wuonwa kod Ruoth Yesu Kristo obed kodu.
to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8 Mokwongo, adwokone Nyasacha erokamano, kuom Yesu Kristo nikech un duto, nimar yie maru landore e pinje duto.
First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.
9 Nyasaye ma atiyone gi chunya duto, ka alando Injili mar Wuode, en janenona kaka asiko aparou e lamona kinde duto
For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the Good News of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you always in my prayers,
10 kendo alamo ni ka Nyasaye oyie to mondo ayud thuolo mar biro iru.
requesting, if by any means now at last I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you.
11 Agombo nenou ahinya mondo apognue mich moko mag chuny mondo ategugo,
For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to the end that you may be established;
12 tiende ni, mondo un kod an wajiwre ngʼato gi ngʼato e yie marwa, ka ajiwou to un bende ujiwa.
that is, that I with you may be encouraged in you, each of us by the other’s faith, both yours and mine.
13 Jowetena, ok adwar ni ubed kukia, ni asedwaro kuom ndalo mathoth mondo abi iru, to timo kamano osetama nyaka kawuononi, mondo an bende ati tich maber e dieru mana kaka asetimo e dier joma ok jo-Yahudi.
Now I do not desire to have you unaware, brothers, that I often planned to come to you (and was hindered so far), that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the rest of the Gentiles.
14 An jagop jo-Yunani gi joma ok jo-Yunani, kendo mar joma riek kod joma ofuwo.
I am debtor both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to the wise and to the foolish.
15 Mano emomiyo aketo chunya ni nyaka un bende ayalnu Injili, un ma un Rumi.
So as much as is in me, I am eager to preach the Good News to you also who are in Rome.
16 Aonge wichkuot kuom Injilini, nikech en e teko mar Nyasaye makelo ni ngʼato angʼata moyie warruok, mokwongo ni jo-Yahudi, eka bangʼe ni joma ok jo-Yahudi bende.
For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.
17 Nikech kuom Injilino ema Nyasaye ketoe dhano kare kuom yie kende ma ok omedie gimoro machielo, mana kaka ondiki niya, “Ngʼat makare nobed mangima kuom yie.”
For in it is revealed God’s righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, “But the righteous shall live by faith.”
18 Mirimb Nyasaye koro fwenyore koa e polo kuom ji duto motamore lame, kendo matimo richo ka gigengʼo adiera gi timbegi maricho.
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,
19 Nikech gima dhano nyalo ngʼeyo kuom Nyasaye oyangorenigi maler, nikech Nyasaye oseelenigi.
because that which is known of God is revealed in them, for God revealed it to them.
20 Nyaka aa chakruok mar piny, gik ma ok ne mag Nyasaye, kaka tekone mochwere gi kite, osenenore malongʼo ka gifwenyore e gik mosechweyo, mondo omi dhano kik wuondre ni kiagi. (aïdios g126)
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting (aïdios g126) power and divinity, that they may be without excuse.
21 Kata obedo ni negingʼeyo Nyasaye kamano, to ne ok gimiye duongʼ kaka Nyasaye, kendo ne ok gidwokone erokamano, to pachgi nobedo manono kendo chunygi mofuyo nodinore.
Because knowing God, they did not glorify him as God, and did not give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened.
22 Kata obedo ni negiwacho ni giriek, to negibedo joma ofuwo,
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 kendo negiloko duongʼ mar Nyasaye ma ok tho e kido machalo gi dhano matho, gi winy, gi le gi gik mamol.
and traded the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, four-footed animals, and creeping things.
24 Mano emomiyo Nyasaye nojwangʼogi e paro modwanyore ma chunygi ne gombo timo, ka giketho dendgi gi kit chode duto e kindgi ngʼato gi ngʼato.
Therefore God also gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves;
25 Negiloko adiera mar Nyasaye odoko miriambo kendo negilamo ka gitiyo ni gik mochwe kar tiyo ni Nyasaye ma Jachwech, mipako nyaka chiengʼ Amin. (aiōn g165)
who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for the ages (aiōn g165). Amen.
26 Kuom mano, Nyasaye nojwangʼogi moweyogi e gombo maricho makelo wichkuot. Mondegi noweyo riwore gi chwogi e yo mowinjore, to negichako riwore gi mon wetegi.
For this reason, God gave them up to vile passions. For their women changed the natural function into that which is against nature.
27 Chwo bende noluwo mana yo machalre; kar riwruok gi mon e yo mowinjore, to dendgi noowore gi gombo chwo wetegi. Chwo notimo timbe dwanyruok gi chwo wetegi, kendo timgino nomiyo giyudo kum e dendgi giwegi mowinjore gi kethogino.
Likewise also the men, leaving the natural function of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another, men doing what is inappropriate with men, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.
28 To bende, kaka negiparo ni ngʼeyo Nyasaye ok lich, Nyasaye nojwangʼogi mondo gidhi adhiya nyime ka pachgi obam, mondo gitim, gik ma ok onego otim.
Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
29 Gipongʼ gi kit timbe mamono duto, gi richo, gi wuoro kod timbe mobam. Bende gipongʼ gi ich lit, gi nek, gi dhawo, gi wuond kod himruok. Gin jokuoth,
being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil habits, secret slanderers,
30 joma ketho nying ji, joma ochayo Nyasaye, jokwinyo, joma wigi tek, kendo josunga, jogo mapile fwenyo yore manyien mag timo richo; kendo ok giwinj jonywolgi;
backbiters, hateful to God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 gionge paro, gionge yie, gionge hera, kendo gionge kech.
without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, unforgiving, unmerciful;
32 Kata obedo ni gingʼeyo chik makare mar Nyasaye ni joma timo gik ma kamago owinjore gi tho, to gidhiyo adhiya nyime gi timogi, kendo bende gipwoyo joma timogi.
who, knowing the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them.
